I was in Towns, minding my own business, when I saw a BLUE BOX!! I clicked on it, and it was added to my inventory...! I looked on the marketplace to see what it was worth, and it was 10k!! So I'm like, yay! I didn't know whether to open it or sell it, so I went on the forums to look around for advice...I found a way to get boxes you've won but missed into your account, and got another blue box and a wooden enchanted trunk!! YAY!

But then............

I saw a place where they have catalogued all the items acquired from boxes/trunks, and I calculated out that for Blue Boxes it was worth opening, so I opened both of them and got....

Prisoner's Shackles and Ballin' Black Head Gear, together worth under 4k. (FROM 20k OF BOXES!! crying ) Frustrated, I opened the trunk, and got an Oil Barrel, worth 60.

If I had sold them, I'd've gotten 25k. Instead, I opened them all for a net loss of 21k. Ouchie.
