The poll is biased, I want its price to be raised, by the option is not there, so I chose nothing. They are super rare for a reason.

It was reduced for those nymphs that now cost 8 quanta -- the sell value is 900 plus the quanta cost of the nymph. If you check the sell costs of your other cards, I think you'll find there are only a few values after subtracting the quanta cost. For the common cards, these base sell costs are 4, 16, 36, and 64; the difference between the buy and sell costs is half of the base sell cost. I haven't looked at all the elements yet -- but the last time I checked, this was true of all the commons in :air :fire :gravity :light :death @ :time :earth :water .

I also checked a few uncommons (farmable rares), which had a base sell cost of 144. (Is the base sell cost always the square of an even number?)
Cool. I´ve never noticed that.

If you have a not so useful nymph and you desperately need money because you are not farming gods, etc yet then selling it would possibly save you a lot of grinding.
It's your choice.

- As a learning experience. Noobs need to look at the cards they get and decide 'Will I use this? Could I use 900 electrum more?'
 - As a worthwhile card. Nymphs are rare.....Very rare. So they need two uses. As a card that you keep, or as a very valuable thing to sell. I've sold more than half of the nymphs I've gotten...All because I know that I will not use them at all. I am very glad that I could sell them for 900, and make an upgrade that I actually find useful now, as opposed to a very valuable card that I won't use.
And as far as those extra 900coins go, id rather farm FG's until i win 1card, farm ai3 for an hour or t50 for a few farms than sell a nymph, all these should quickly get u around 1k. And thus, i sit with this on my thoughts, would i sell a nymph, or spend lets say 1hour. is 1hour effort worth a nymph, and easily ill say YES every time someone asks me, regardless of what nymph it is.
Okay, but why do you want to change the whole mechanics of the bazaar to make a card unable to be sold just because you don't want to sell it?  If you'd rather not sell it, don't.  If someone else wants to, they should be able to, and they should get a good price for it (as it is rare).  Don't make special rules just because others want to play differently.

Quote from: Svenningen
Fooling people with the amount it sells for isnt good, its evil zanz! ^^
If anything, lowering the selling price is what would fool people.  Think about it, if you're new and you see all the common cards sell for ~20-70 electrum. What are you going to think of a card that sells for just over 100?  It must be pretty common, because it's not worth much more than a common.  Currently, nymphs are worth just over 900 electrum and when you click on it, it says, "WARNING, YOU ARE ABOUT TO SELL A RARE CARD." Wouldn't that make you stop and think, "Man, if it's that valuable, maybe I should think twice about selling this?"

I voted nothing, but I agree with this poster:

The poll is biased, I want its price to be raised, by the option is not there, so I chose nothing. They are super rare for a reason.
Preventing people from selling the card is extremely stupid, and is an insult to players intelligence. Noobs that "dont know what they are doing" will be warned more by extremely high price than by some suckish price.
