and the fact that so many people will hoard these out and then quit playing forever deletes them out of the game

coming back to Animal Jam after about 6 years and seeing how the economy is now makes me not want to even try for some items, I was never really into rares, but I would trade for the item or two if i liked them, but now trading just seems even more hostile and confusing. The most I would collect was the aniverary cakes, but for some reason my 6th ani ones went missing

There's also the problem of black longs being used as a currency themselves, because they're not as easily obtainable as people think and if it's going to be used as a currency, it has to be more easily accessible when it's not.

ending made me smile so wide, fun watch!

WHAT SHOPS ARE THESE OMGGGG half these items sell for over 5-40+ dims and they selling it for 1

headdresses are not going down in popularity, black long spiked collars were no longer available in forgotten desert and made the economy crash

At this point, im pretty sure the only reliable way to get rare in this game is by being an artist and selling masterpieces tbh

flappy aj :D

thats so slayy bro

dang thats rlly weird i thinks hes a hacker but like one that dos no scam ppl or hack accs.

I hoard rc cars wheels and traffic cones is this bad? Well collect for my car den but i don't hoard spikes i only have 1 solid 1 red long and 1 short spike

can you do a list of most valuable items in the game updated,

aww great video!

i got a spike in 3 days startng from plushies. its definitely possible if u play the cards right

Helllooo! Bradstormer would you be interested in an interview? I’m gonna be making a video about how to become a jambassador and some of my opinions and tips from what I’ve seen over the years! I really want to interview a real jambassador and you’re the first person who came to mind! ✨✨

the thing is that most of the players arn't little kids anymore. more ppl know worth and how to obtain items. its not like back then :(

I want a copy

CANT BELIEVE I JUST MET U IN AJ!!! U MADE MY DAY

You're so helpful❤

You could have ended the video a lot sooner there were lots of spikes being sold at the shops you were looking at for like 55.

I remember the time when I was playing AJ years ago and they rolled the update that den betas would now be sold in shops. DEN BETAS. These items were incredibly special because only a limited number of them existed and because they were worth slightly less than spikes and wristbands you could trade for them a bit more easily than just with rares. Introducing them in shops just plummeted their worth like no tomorrow, decreasing the number of 'high value' items to trade with. I immediately knew if AJ continued on like this, it would fuck up the economy, and I have no idea why AJ made that decision.

Thank goodness I trades up to some of those McDonald plushies before the economy crashed. I don’t think I’ll be able to continue to do my plushie locked account grind like usual for more of those exclusive plushies. :P

catching up on my animal jam lore

I just play the game as a comfort game and to collect my favorite animals and make characters and outfits. Its also the only animal game/ game like it.☺

This is how I expanded and fixed Puppy In My Pocket series in my Puppy In My Pocket fanfiction series 💖🐾💛🐾🧡🐾 1) animal characters live in the same world as human characters 2) all of the animal characters are small and cute (all of the animal characters are the same size as each other (all of them are 31.75 cm tall), plus all of them have large anime eyes and human like facial expressiveness, the only thing that differentiates them is their animal species, as there are both well known species and lesser known species, plus there are more than just one member of the species) 3) all of the girl characters have the same extreme hourglass figure as each other and the exact same cup size as each (all of the girls have 35-25-35 bust-waist-hip ratio and the C cup size, the only things that differentiate them are hair colors, eye colors, skin colors, hairstyles and clothings) 4) all of the boy characters have the same body type as each other (all of the boys have 35-25-24 bust-waist-hip ratio and lean athletic build with medium sized defined muscles, the only things that differentiate them are hair colors, eye colors, skin colors, hairstyles and clothings) 5) all of the characters that are animalistic deities in the original versions of their stories are now just as humanoid as the other characters (the only things hinting at their animal inspiration are their hairstyles that look like attributes of animals they are based on, for example, Bastet has buns that look like cat ears and a braid that looks like a cat tail) Series in Puppy In My Pocket: Puppy In My Pocket Adventures In Pocketville Momotaro Journey To The West The Three Musketiers Sword In The Stone Leilani And Pele's Hair Jason And The Argonauts Wurrunna Little Red Riding Hood Diego And The Charcoal Cat Quetzalcoatl Bastet Anansi Vasilisa The Magical Glooscap Terror Of Gevaudan Killer Phantom Kangaroo Of Kentucky Baatar And The Death Worm Loch Ness Mystery Ramayana Pocketville Princesses are Katie, Martina, Molly, Nicole, Alice, Anabelle, Beatrice, Francesca, Michaela, Vanessa, Alexia, Valerie, Maggie, Emilly, Lillia, Kaguya Hime, Otohime, Urikohime, Jade Princess, Amelie, Vivianne, Leilani, Penelope, Anjea, Little Red Riding Hood, Isabella, Xochiquetzal, Nefertiti, Zuri, Vasilisa, Atahensic, Jacqueline, Sierra, Zhana, Evelyn and Sita Pocketville Princes are Kevin, Marc, Stephan, Lucas, Daniel, Liam, Momotaro, Urashima Taro, Kintaro, Issun Boshi, Sun Wukong, D'Artagnian, Porthos, Athos, Aramis, Arthur, Kanekehili, Jason, Wurruna, Friedrich, Diego, Quetzalcoatl, Ushebti, Anansi, Ivan, Glooscap, Guillaume, Duncan, Baatar, Lesley and Rama Pocketville Principal Pets are Magic (dog), Bella (dog), Princess Ami (cat), Mela (cat), William (dog), Balloon (cat), Danny (dog), Wallace (dog), Eva (cat), Zull (dog), Gort (dog), Krakia (crow), Evershell (turtle), Durilia (crocodile), Toby (dog), Goldie (hamster), Robbie (American robin), Slowpoke (turtle), Juno (dog), Orilliam (pig), Sketch (dog), Swimmy (dolphin), Dr. Carrot (rabbit), Pinna (goldfish), Phoebe (dog), Pia (dog), Ginevra (horse), Kikki (dog), Frankie (dog), Leo (dog), Otto (dog), Camo (cat), Ribbon (baby chick), Tray (dog), Lenny (monkey), Precious (pheasant), Luna (rabbit), Virgo (lamb), Diana (moon moth), Rocky (sea turtle), Coral (tropical reef fish), Maomao (cat), Amethyst (turtle), Crystal (silkmoth), George (cat), Maybelline (parrot), Blush (horse), Elliote (falcon), Malorie (dog), Charlie (cat), Polly (hedgehog), Angela (Hawaiian honeycreeper), Matthew (sea turtle), Sylvester (dolphin), Octavius (octopus), Oscar (tropicbird), Gabriella (swallow), Andy (wallaby), Bouncer (bandicoot), Carmen (numbat), Star (billby), Roxy (dog), Freddy (squirrel), Charcoal (cat), Lilly (dog), Obsidian (snake), Ruby (bat), Bastet (cat), Anubis (jackal), David (spider), Glimmer (butterfly), Millie (cat), Chase (wolf), Joshua (turtle), Uriah (groundhog), Mary (bobcat), Alex (peacock moth), Roderick (dog), Briana (Mexican tree frog), Tony (anole), Rufus (ground squirrel), Manisha (sandfish lizard), Harry (longhorn beetle), Sarah (cat), Patch (tiger) and Faith (dog) (Puppy In My Pocket) Pocketville Villains are Pet Buster, Akandoji, Yellow Wind Demon, Cardinal Richelieu, Morrigan, Nightmarcher, Circe, Bunyip and his drop bears, kangawallafoxes and hooroos, Wolfgang, Lobo, Tezcatlipoca, Apophis, Giza, Baba Yaga, Malsumis and his wendigos, Beast of Gevaudan, Killer phanthom kangaroo, Mongolian death worm, Arthur Grant and Ravana

My first rare was a fox hat and i traded a rare cape for it. Now it seems almost impossible for new players to get cool rares without trading a million spikes for one thing

I remember the time only member could change the items colors 💀

Please do a play wild version, i am confused as to why some items have rare tags and why others don't

I just recicled some of my valuable rares to get gems :(

My favorite rares are probably the OG epic plushies. I'm still trying to collect them all (although I do have the non rare variants as placeholders in my den), but they're just so hard to find!

Yesssss I’m so glad you made a video on this phenomenon (specifically the 8-variant rare items)!!!! I’m like a broken record ranting ab it. Good to get an explanation on it and other rare items ppl just chock up as regular old rims

I stopped playing a while ago Wana get back into it by may favorite rare is the rare scary cat hat! It was my first ever rim and my favorite but I do get it as I used to be a collector 😂

What's your favorite rare?

Thank you animal jam for introducing me to economics in a surprisingly accurate way

Yes, you don't accept me,

It’s been a year since this video has been out, and I don’t know if you will see this, it’s like a shot in the dark, but im kind of out of options, so, why not ? I used to play AJPW back in between 2015-2019. For some odd reason I never registered my account. I was a guest jammer with a decent amount of animals, pets, costumes, houses and items. Around 2019 I had some issues with the app, got kind of locked out and wasn’t able to get it again. I shared that I had probably lost my old account on Reddit and someone suggested that I contact you. They said; “id suggest contacting the youtuber/jambassador named bradstormer to ask abt the process of recovery, if i remember right smt rly similar happened with his guest jammer account and ajha was able to restore it”. I’ve contact support but haven’t managed to get far. I have my old device which i will try to long onto my old account. But seeing as you have somehow managed to get yours back, is there any way you could help me or, tell me something that could help me with possible recovery of my account ? I heard about the data breach and such so I have lost most hope.

Packs are dead in 2024 😭

Mmm I remember when a clothing beta was 1/4 of a den beta :// Also will never not be confused by the fact gloves are not cbs. Cbs are technically variants from early on who used to be in stores in the beta and got given a rare tag once removed… and got nonrare variants. So I feel like a lot of things should be clothing betas. Like underwater clown masks, gloves, rare demon hats, rare Viking helms. But of course, clown mask isn’t accepted at all because it’s underwater, it doesn’t even look bad, it’s a fun scary item They’re just as accessible as normal cbs so why are they worth less? It’s just stupid tbh!!

I just started playing AJ again after YEARS I mean last time I was on was maybe 2016 but I feel so like lost. Does anyone know what kind of stuff is what people want when it comes to trading what should I be looking out for? Can I get the galaxy fur? So many things if anyone can inform me id appreciate it

Nah cuz I'm begging you help me sell like a pro, I don't get any sells :<

i 100% agree it’s definitely better for non members now than it was back in 2015. i think a big difference in that is animal jam society lol-kids made this whole stigma against non members for being “poor”, and just treating people unfairly based on status. i think now that classic has mostly an teen+ fanbase now, there isn’t that non member discrimination anymore. i find it interesting that back in the day you had to have membership to color items, but now the jamaaliday advent items can only be colored as the member version!

future person here, coyote returned to the sapphire shops halloween 2024.

😭

*It's no kids game anymore!* 😂 _It's no kids' game anymore....😢_

These pixels are pricey! 😂 (😢)

HE GOT EXPOSED! KIJJI GOT EXPOSED

You picked my bug outfit to win your fashion show! Tysm Brad! <3

Are they available yet? I don't understand where to buy them :(

So where will the items be sold, will they be sold in their shops that they originated from, or will they be in the sapphire shop, or the premium shop?

today’s the first day, me and my friend are both trying to get the arctic den. We’re clearly on time and I’m just wondering what’s going on?? We can’t buy it or any of the other two items on the board.
