So, I followed the sale of Crystal Palace space station. The auction started out at five times the price I would have paid, 500,000 PED, but I watched it anyways. I’m not sure but I think that the guy that bought the asteroid was not there. His asteroid was much bigger. His deal included apartments, more storefronts and more hunting areas which are also larger if I remember correctly.
FPC congratulate avatar Buzz Erik Lightyear for acquiring the Crystal Palace Space Station for the amount of 3,300,000 PED (USD 330,000).
The price also surpasses the old world record for virtual property previously set with the purchase of Club Neverdie – The Virtual Space Resort and Nightclub, for 1,000,000 PED (USD 100,000).

Entropia Universe has a planet called Calypso. On the watery planet are two continents. IMHO there are around 50 land areas Including Treasure Island(which sold for 26kUSD$). 1USD=10PED. Deathifier, the owner of Treasure Island, was at the auction.
In Calypso outer space there is Neverdie’s Asteroid and Buzz Erik Lightyears Crystal Palace Space Station.
On the ground there are some properties with ships called hangars owned by people called pilots with whom you negotiate for a ride. In the game, FPC says the future is promised space travel which hasn’t arrived yet. Things like this make me think I’m catching whiff big vapourware because the dream is so dreamy.
What I wanna know is how Calendar got that job. And who gets the money?
Something happened to one of the banks too. Remember, when they sold four or five of those for like almost 100k each? Well one has been shut down – I dunno why, so, but the story sounds interesting. Neverdie owns one of the banks too, that’s right near Port Atlantis. And Anshe the famous Second Life gazillionaire owns one. I sure remember thinking OMFG, what a rip, can u imagine, banking license, ha.
During this auction I seen a lot of action in the upper end. One guy wanted 300,000PED for his mall and right then too was a land area the guy wanted 500,000PED for. Both those outrageously priced properties did not sell. Then there was like four or five more land areas added and one guy had sniped them all at 100,000PED each but there is still four or five days left in the auction. Wonder what they will close at.
There are also some stores, a large and small one in the mall and one at Youjou, valued from 13,000PED to 60,000PED. Which is good because it increases the value of my store in my head. We’ll see where these prices close as they are still running in the auction too.
