    Hi

    Did you encounter snatching merchant. What does he look like?

    suddenly saw a pop up box, saying congratulations, would you Like to buy a chest for a special rate.

    The offer was for 300 solenoid and about 15set of chargers for $1.28.

    Is this a Good buy?

    I saw a similar offer for the Oceanic and Laboratory rooms. As a rule I don't spend money on games (especially buggy ones with terrible customer support), but of course, your money is your money and you're free to spend it as you see fit.

    $1 is not a lot, but I feel like I'd get "addicted" to buying cheap chests and would inevitably buy lots Sad

    Thats true Lex, totally share your sentiments until recently GI had improved on their customer support and game is playable, thus I try to enjoy while I can

    I bought the chest through the snatching merchant and 300 solonoids for S$1.28.

    If compare this to buying Chest of selene which is 50 diamonds for 150 solonoids, this is good offer.

    If thinking, $1.28 for 300 solonoids , each search is 30 solonoid for my current level = 10 room search, which is like over in 15min, it is expensive...

    hmmn, now where can I find the snatchning merchant to buy room keys for crypt?

    If you haven't any keys then the merchant pops up for all applicable rooms. 300 solenids cost me 69p = 99 cents. 300 standards for generals bunker cost the same. As you click on the room the merchant pops up, but only if you haven't enough or very few. I think it only happens once per room. 90 diamonds = £2.99 300 keys = 69p or 300 diamonds, it's a bit of a no brainer

    I've gotten the same offer (and purchased) 3 times now for Selene. It's gotten me through the novice and detective levels.

    I click on Selene after every few searches now, hoping to get the offer again. Sadly, Selene is not really a fun room to search, but I was annoyed that it was the one room I couldn't get to expert on due to the dreadful drop rate for selenoids.

    It cost 3 bucks so far, but I'll buy one less coffee at Starbucks and break even, right? Razz

    Just got the Merchant in the bedroom during Zodiac. $.99 for 300 Crystals and a few other bonus items. Is there any other way to accumulate crystals besides gypsys? Any chests that are a great buy with lots of crystals in them?

    As far as I know, exploring rooms and banishing gypsies are the only way to find shatters. I expect if you want to buy them, the snatchinmerchant is probably the best value.
