    What part of EcoCityCraft is this suggestion for:
    All Main Servers
    Short title for your suggestion:
    Additions to Star Shop
    What are you suggesting:
    Add the following to the Star Shop to reduce the amount of nstars in the market and hopefully increase their price again:

    - Add the Owner Heads that are a part of God Crates to Star Shop

    - Add exclusive one-of-a-kind lored items that can only be acquired through the Star Shop

    - Add the "junk items" that are currently in Star Casino to Star Shop (or at the very least, the "junk items" that are extremely rare there such as the four command block types)
    Why is this a good addition for EcoCityCraft?:
    As mentioned, the nstar market is tanking dramatically. iirc, they are now down to 800 each and keep falling. If this keeps on happening, star tools would be cheap and relatively easy to obtain, so these are three ways I can think of to try to take star out of the market and hopefully increase their value. As for each addition specifically:

    - Owner heads are an amazing thing that was added recently, but I've seen people kind of be disappointed/complain that they win them in God Crates. Moving them to Star Shop seems like a better solution not only for those who are disappointed winning them in God Crates, but for reducing nstars in market; I know many people who would shell out their hard nstars for these items.

    - For the lored items, again, many people will easily shell out their nstars for the complete collection (I can think of at least 6 people right away who would buy these in a heart beat)

    - For the "junk items" from Star Casino, many of them are near impossible to obtain, and people who do collect will definitely shell out a couple dozen or more for certain items, especially those that never seem to appear in each spin. Plus, these items were a part of Star Shop before the Star Casino became a thing.


    All in all, with a minor exception of the owner heads (arguably), all the items I am suggesting are just cosmetic items that don't have that much of a base value, but are still ones that people would still buy for a ton of stars; they are collectibles that should remove a good number of stars without giving anyone an economic advantage.
    Other information:
    This is an alternate suggestion to this one made by koko, but maintain the price of Star Tools since I feel we can't/shouldn't raise the star tools' nstar price.

    As for the pricing, I'm not going to really give an exact value of what I'm thinking, but I'll give ranges that I was thinking:

    - Owner heads: 500-750 stars each (depending on the owner too, maybe flux the value)

    - Lored items - at least 100 stars each (these are hard to price since they can be any price without hurtling the economy), but make each one that is added a different price (i.e. one item for 100, another for 250, and possibly one for 500 so it has a rarity tier)

    - The "junk items" can also flux. I think their prices when they were a part of Star Shop in the past were fair; maybe make them worth less than before just because of the amount that is already in the world. Command block items will clearly be the most expensive items since there is near none in ECC already.
    Plugin or custom addition:

    One suggestion per form:
    I Understand.

    Unobtainables will not be added to the star shop. They're unobtainables for a reason.

    Aside from that, if people want command blocks, etc. they can effectively purchase them from the star casino. The odds stay consistent. If it's too low for them/more people would play for higher odds, then you should create an alternative suggestion. Either way, I simply don't see that big a dump of any significant size.
