just to warn others make SURE to count the ZEROS in a price.

i just accidentally paid 250m for a stupid horse when i thought it said 25m, BIG difference.

*when did we start to be able to charge that amount any way?*

I know! There should be comas in the price. That would clear a lot of things up. It's so annoying to have to spend so much time counting and recounting the prices just to make sure you've got the right amount and that it's a good deal.

I do the same thing! I am mentally math challenged sometimes and I agree, why don't we have commas in the numbers? Things would be so much easier. We should ask one of the administrators to do that!

i also have trouble checking the amount of zeros. i sometimes use my cursor to move over the zeros while i count them. unfortunately this sometimes means i accidentally click on it, which usually results in purchasing a grossly overpriced animal. when i was new that got me in a lot of trouble once because i accidentally bought a really bad cat for something like $15 mill, which at the time was all my money, and since i was about to make a fairly large purchase this meant i couldn't do it and had to send a lot of frantic messages to several people to make sure it was ok to delay the purchase.

out of interest, what was the horse you bought?

Who did you buy it from? Maybe if you talked it over with them, they would at least let you have some of it back?

as for the seller their farm has been banned since so there is no asking for it back.

the thing i still dont get is when did we start being able to have prices over 50m?
