Titles
gollark: Does anybody?
gollark: It happened to me kind of recently (last week or something); I put up a CB Truffle egg and got a CB Xenowyrm. A Golden Wyvern (seemingly not rare, but far rarer than truffles) didn't get any offers whatsoever.
gollark: New releases have really weird valuation, basically.
gollark: Madness.
gollark: Someone in the tradehub has gotten a copper and xenowyrm (both CB) and wants... a zyumorph.
