Do not let people open costume boxes for you

 

have them get kitcoin purses and give you the coins

 

thank you to those who responded that are not trolls your insight has been very helpful

i want to bring it to everyone's attention that people are scamming people trying to buy kit costume boxes i have opened 24 boxes and got 3 rudras i have bought 36 boxes from 3 different people and have got 0 rudras out of the 24 boxes i opened there was a very even mix getting all the items evenly out of the 36 boxes the best items i got was 3 pigeons the mass majority was chick hats and rabbit ear hats 2 angel masquerades 1 kitsune mask hood and 1 darkness helm that the person went so far as to take right off from atop there head  no captains hats no robo eyes no sword masters crowns no little angel dolls and definitely no rudras im sure some of you will say well thats just the luck of it well your wrong thats the scam of it they give you the cheapest stuff on the market with something to make you think aw thats just bad luck but see look i got a pigeon not to mention the second person who i know didn't have a rudra before hand took the hat from his head and put it in the deal saying thats what i got walked right away and put up a chat S>Rudras grace and when i asked him how he got that just now after we had just talked about it and he exed me how smart is it that the items should be tradable but not the boxes thats the opposite of the way it should be! thats just helping people scam i spent 1.26 billion zeny on them boxes and lost my ass thank you for your time and have a good night

 

...why were you buying "boxes" off of people? Hell, I could have sold you a Rudra straight up for 1 bil. No need to scam yourself.

 

Hell, if worse came to worst, you could have just purchased a bunch of junk, waited until boxter gets updated, and cash the junk in for a chance at a Rudra Wing...

there's a borderline between being lucky and scamming. scamming brings you 0% benefit and 100% loss, while being lucky is you have certain % to get benefit and loss.

i know you are angry since you have bad luck, but please put comas and stop mark to your text in order to make it readable.

im not asking for troll input its simple mathematics those boxes are a very good deal as long as your not getting scammed and you would try and sell a rudra for a bill you clearly did not read what i said because i got 3 out of the boxes i opened myself 1 gave away 1 sold 1 i have and i was easly able to break even without selling the rudra thats were the simple mathematics comes in but then again if you cant read you probably cant do math eather

you sir are correct i did not do this post well because im angry but when you talk to someone and they say they dont have a rudra and then they take the hat off there head and trade it to you and walk 10 cells away and put on a rudra and open a chat saying there are selling a rudra i tend to think well he just took my rudra

I still don't get what you're trying to say. You bought some boxes and got nothing of any real value out of them, and you consider that a scam?

 

If so, the boxes are pure RNG and there's no way to tell what's going to come out of them, as the item is randomised upon using the box. That's just really bad luck.

i doubt those people actively solicited you to buy their "boxes." you were the one asking them to buy x boxes and give you the contents for y price, correct? don't know why anyone would give you a rudra wing costume for whatever low price you offered to buy the boxes at when it came from the boxes THEY opened.

 

if so, you have only yourself to blame.

i see what youre saying but its a stupid deal to make.... you paid them to buy boxes for you... then give you the items... you should have just bought the items instead of playing the RNG game especially with people you dont know... yes they are in the wrong if they got a good item and traded you for a lesser item they had but you cant prove it so you dont have any action you can take... never buy boxes through a 3rd party... if anything buy WPE from them and buy your own boxes...

Oh, so he paid people to open boxes for him? I didn't know you couldn't trade them. Never even tried.

 

If that's the case though... (removed for name calling)

Next time, just buy items to boxter or buy WPE then convert it to KP.

Something doesn't add up. D:

 

Just buy the item you want next time (tho I know the feeling when you open boxes, that thrill... and disappointment afterwards :v ).

its all about the thrill im a Gemini in truest sense so anything that can make me think i hate you, i hate you, i hate you, YES YES I LOVE YOU, i hate you, i hate you,oh sweet baby jesus i love you did i tell you i love you?, im gonna rip out your guts and feed them to you! is right up my ally way

i think everyone missed that i already got what there is to get out of them

i was just not done chasing the dragon yet and seen them walk away and put the wings on

first person didn't she almost seemed fine except that she at the end ended up not having all the kp she said she had so she could not sell me that last box

the second guy he was a db and literally took the hat off his head and gave it to me and as i said walked away put them on and tried to sell them and exed me when i asked him how he got them after saying he had not got his own yet

last guy was in pront and he walked off screen and put them on before going into eden and putting up his chat to sell them

im not even mad anymore im almost happy i helped 3 people get rudras but thats also me i cant really stay mad for long even if i sometimes want to

 

mater of fact i probably wouldn't even have got mad at this last guy if he didn't try and sell them tho i didn't even say anything to him about it but i figured he would do it because i new he had more kp then i was buying off him thats why i followed shortly after on another account that was there as well i smirked when he put them on and only got mad when he tried to sell them

most all them items sell for around 30m and the odd 5m here and there is not going to hurt me that much just sucks that you cant trust people on ro anymore

yes, i know there is a female archbishop in front of gramps desk in eden opened a chat "S> 100 KP = 10m". then i tried to enter the chat and ask her how she will sell the KP, is it using gift coupons or what since i am interested to buy from her.
then she answered that she will buy KP items for me then she will trade with me. like i want her to buy me a gwing box, then she will hand me that gwing box and i have to pay zeny as much as the KP i spend (in gwing case is 50m).
then i asked again i need pure KP points, coz i want to buy lucky boxes since lucky boxes are not tradeable. then she said for boxes, she will buy the boxes then open them then give the contents to me. i started to smell something fishy here and i left the chat.

that happened 6 days ago. i wonder if OP got 'scammed' by the same person i talked about.

Erm. If you're trying to buy Kit Costume Boxes. You should just buy Kitcoin Purses.

Each Kitcoin Purse gives u 14 coins which are entirely tradable, and you go to the npc to trade the coins for the costume yourself.

The only difference is Kitcoin Costume Boxes give an additional 42 malang sp cans, which aren't tradable anyway.

Thus, they would go to the person opening the boxes, not to you.

 

I buy KP often and I don't let people open boxes for me, precisely because there's a possibility they might substitute the items inside and scam you.

it says they cannot be traded with other accounts but then again it can sometimes say that and it not be true for example robo eyes i really wish iro would fix item descriptions to not be so misleading and hard to understand i thought you could only get single coins from the groovember pack
