    Item: Pumpkin

    Data Value: 86

    Current Price: $0.60
    Suggested Price: $0.75

    Brief Description: Pumpkins are mainly obtained by farming them.

    Open Discussion: Well I think that pumpkin prices are too low. Think of it, not many people have CJB, Fly, and an Effiency 5 axe. So for people without it have a tough time making money. So no matter what price pumpkins are at people with CJB, Fly, and a Effiency 5 axe will have an advantage. So I think pumpkins should be brought back up to $0.75, especially with melon prices being so high.

    I like how you used orange and green XD

    Anyways, I would make it .70, not .75.

    Lol.
    Jbuks, you argument destroys itself.

    Lets look at your reasons.

    #1. Not every has the best stuff to farm pumpkins with.
    #2. People that don't have it should be able to make more money.
    #3. Because of 1 and 2, lets raise the price.

    Now really?
    Let me show you my reasoning.

    #1. Not everyone has the best stuff to farm pumpkins with.
    #2. Those that do have the best stuff, make quite a dollar.
    #3. Because of 1 and 2, we should keep the price where it is because those with all the tools would make WAAAAY too much money now.

    :/

    ... A suggestion get rejected and a new one appears within a week.
    Pumpkin are not going to be risen, they are more lightly to be lowered more. If you want the reasons look at the previous 100 pumpkin price suggestion posts that have been rejected.

    I think it should go up. So many have sold their farms, or changed them to melons. Rising the price would drastically change things, with many scrambling to make a farm. Then bam! It lowers again. Making Eco a cruel, real world economy server :p

    Nothing have changed between now and 2 weeks ago when the last pumpkin price rise was denied. Pumpkin prices is perfect at the moment, you can make around 17k an hour max with optimal conditions.
    I find these suggestions have no real facts or good reasons on why they should be added apart from the person making it wanting to make more money.

    I liked it when they were $2 dollars maybe a price around $0.80-$1.00 would be nice even though I don't have tools or a farm

    You do realise at $1 people can make 30k+ a hour. That price is stupid.

    This is why I farm melons.
    Pumpkins need a slight boost, just by about 5 cents. I make about 3$ a second, which comes out to around 10-11k. It's not really fair for those without fly, but as I say, I farm melons.

    Pumpkin prices are fine, the thing to worry about is when the melon prices will drop, as they make way too much money these days.
