Now that all of the rides are available in the same area as the clothes, maybe they can't set it up so you can trade some items and not the others from the same store.

the old trading system was okay. i really don't understand why they came up with this new scheme.

I've been thinking about this more and as far as I could figure out they should be easily able to distinguish the two things. They could make rides and homes not tradeable but still let us have our clothes/furniture/ etc.

Because remember before all of this we could buy furry friend clothing but we couldn't trade it. So why is this different?

i have no idea.. i was thinking that maybe, it's an effort to stop scamming and account hacking? there's nothing else i can think of..

Hmm *thinking*. Well I have thought of something. For Bear Boutique credits you couldn't just buy them from the store like Bearville Outfitter credits. So maybe that's why?!?!
I remember when the rides first came out, they said they couldn't be trade-able so they could insure to parents their money wouldn't just be traded away; that could be why?!?!

That is a good point. But credits are just a thing it's not like your randomly buying stuff just to get credits.

i hate it, and i guess everyone does!

You don't just go to BABW and spend your money on 2$ things for 1 credit.

see a virtual house for 10 dollars,??and code can only be used once!??i'm talking about outfitters cards.im far from store,so i HAVE NO CHOICE but to buy these cards to get these items. 1 shirt = 1dollar.. i wont mind buying some and trading some items for newer ones,but without trade, babw is kinda forcing us to buy everything in the catalog! :x :x

Well, some of us kinda do LOL. Every single time I purchase a new furry friend, they get a $1.00 heart. I also purchased other $1.00 items they had....flags, hair bows etc.

But it's not like every item there is 1$

FunkyMonkey wrote:But it's not like every item there is 1$

Oh, I know. I just meant I do purchase $1.00 items just to receive the credits.

I sent you a pm regarding the trading. We can trade the items again very soon.

Thank for your suggestions!

It is well known that Buildabearville has more stuff for FREE than any other online world. We continue to add features that are playable by all and also wanted to add new features for our loyal Guests who want even more fun out of Buildabearville. When the new Bearville Outfitters store opened, people that purchased Bearville Outfitter credits at www.buildabear.com, or redeemed their receipt codes, were able to get special rare items and to keep these items special they were made un-tradable. We always listen to our Guests and we aim to please-- the voice of the citizens is loud and clear so soon clothing and furniture in the Bearville Outfitters will work just like the Bear Boutique did – avatar’s clothing and accessories as well as furniture will be tradable again! The team is hard at work right now to make this happen. As before, rides, furry friend fashions, new items, like the Beachfront Home, will not be tradable either. While not for sale in The Bearville Outfitters store, furry friends, emoticons, and moves will remain untradable.

Don’t forget – all of your old Bear Boutique credits in your accounts can now be used in the Bearville Outfitters store!

Again, thank you for being such an engaged citizen. It’s BEARY clear to me that friends can make a world of difference!

Bear Hugs,
Maxine Clark CEB

P.S. The new "Spa" addition to the Bee-Stylin Salon where you can change your eye color and skin tone will open this Spring--stay tuned. It will be PAWSOME!

I think that this new spa feature will be very cool. And don't worry, we will be able to trade our stuff very soon.

I'm sure Maxine did not receive enough emails about this issue today. I don't understand how the replies are the same What do you think haha.

Seriously though, poor thing.....I don't know how she does it. Normally the founder/owner of a company this large does not allow his or her email address to be given to the public. She is incredible!

They make you buy hair bows?

My BABW gives them out for free in any color. They even told me, many times, "Would you like a few bows? Take some in any color; they're all free."
Of course, that means no credit for it. Lol
Oh well.

Our store also had $1.00 bows or barrettes or something like that from the friend 2B made line. Whatever $1.00 - $2.00 item we can find, we buy

Let me add - we don't only purchase the $1.00 items LOL. We also purchase plenty of clothes and furry friends.
