The Great Habbo Trade Expo!

Habbo have just announced the Great Trade Expo!

After Vaults were removed from Habbo earlier this month, the team

received a lot of feedback from players that the additional credit furni fees

introduced in 2020 had negatively affected traders' experience.

In light of the feedback, Habbo have decided to

permanently reduce fees on some credit furni.

On the 24th of February the prices of the following credit funi will be changed:

Sack of Coins - 21 credits

Gold Bar - 52 credits

50 Bronze Coin Bundle - 50 credits & 10 diamonds

Habbo have also decided to remove some of the credit funi bundles to streamline

the shop. The following bundles will be removed when the Great Trade Expo

event launches:

20 Bronze Coin Bundle

4 Silver Coin Bundle

10 Silver Coin Bundle

5 Gold Coin Bundle

To celebrate the changes, Habbo will be launching a week-long event focussing on trading

in the hotel - The Great Habbo Trade Expo! The event starts on the 24th of February alongside the changes above.

There's some additional things happening this week also!

The release of a brand new and improved version of the P2P Collectibles trading feature

• The temporary removal of the Silver fee from P2P Collectibles trading for the duration of the trade expo event
• The introduction of several brand new achievements

After some extensive troubleshooting and a slew of fixes from Habbo, they are now ready to roll out an improved version of P2P Collectibles trading. As well as making it possible for players to trade ALL types of Regular Collectibles in-game (provided they’re in your Collector Wallet), devs have made the following fixes to this feature:

• Collectibles that are placed in your room, and then are picked up, will no longer be marked as untradable. (In progress.)
•  
• When trading, you will only be shown Collectibles that are in your Collector Wallet, not those that are in your MetaMask wallet.

To mark the release of P2P Collectibles trading, during the Great Habbo Trade Expo, Habbo will be temporarily waiving the Silver fee to use this feature. 

By doing this, we hope that as many of you will try P2P Collectibles trading as possible – it makes all types of rare and low supply Collectibles available to the wider Habbo community without needing to bother with MetaMask wallets or NFT marketplaces like TokenTrove.

To make the event fun for the achievement hunters in our community, Habbo are also going to be releasing five brand new trading achievements for you to complete!

Experienced Trader – given for completing X trades with other Habbos

Collectibles Merchant – given for trading X Collectibles inside Habbo

Ultimate Pocket Changer – given for trading credit furni worth X credits

Silver Spender – given for spending X amount of Silver in Collectibles trades

I’m Bobba Rich – given for placing credit furni worth X credits in your room

Note: every Habbo that gets to level 3 in the “Ultimate Pocket Changer” achievement before the end of the event on March 3rd will be given a prize! This will be donated to your avatar automatically soon after the event finishes.

We’ll also be adding the following achievements for those of you who like trading, but also like other activities, too:

Mega Chatterbox – given for being inside a chat/discussion or public room for X minutes

Hustler of Habbo – given for being inside a trading room for X minutes

Forever on Duty – given for being inside an agency or RPG room for X minutes

Pro Gamer – given for being inside a gaming room for X minutes

Back in 2020, Habbo decided to exempt rare credit furni from credit furni fees. This has created a loophole which Habbos can use to circumvent the fee altogether.

Going forward, rare credit furni will have a small diamond cost attached. As well as removing the loophole, this will help to sustain the “rare” allure of these items for the Habbos that collect them.
