[Notice] Sale of regular eggs from the event with the description 'Egg mature'

I would like to inform returning players, new players, or those who are unaware of this, that there are sellers who are selling regular eggs with the description “Mature Umbrascale Dragon Egg”.

For those who are unaware, the Egg Mature is much larger, and its name is clearly indicated in the object information.

PLEASE LEARN TO READ  that is all

The vendor owner should be punished for scamming.  The description also copies the Mature egg description.

A  two minute matter for a GM to report and set up punishment to the account.

The people trying to buy low and sell high should be punished 

Scamming victims are not other scammers.  😂

That is literally in the ToS.  Any GM should be able to shut it down.

Uo has always been buyer beware! are you asking for easy mode?

They have done nothing for bugged replica being able to find their way on a VS after using a shard transfer shield; to be able to sale them as a vet reward.. they (GM) did nothing more than asking the person(victim) if they wanted to delete the replica from their inventory.. a replica they paid 175millions for.

I don't see why it would be different here.. but yeah.. 100% agree with Paiwan, these scammers should get sanctionned.. like starting with a 24h ban per eggs.. this is more than adding a 0.. but less than abusing/profiting from a transfer BUG.. so yeah.. nothing is gonna be done here.


BTW @Grimbeard UO ain't buyer beware.. BS legit sponsor those scams.. when they do nothing for people exploiting a known bug.. I mean.. wtf.. This is just the result of the mismanagement.

Always, ALWAYS go by the game's description of an item and not that given by the vendor owner. 

Tell that to the returning player that will buy one of those..

You know anyone, not around that did not participate in this sepcific temporary event.. that will wonder what this small egg is and read the vendor note.


Just let these scammers cook.. they legit have sponsors.. Just change the marred for DECORATIVE dragon egg.. no need marred umbrascale.. The dev ain't helping on top of the bad Mesanna culture.. try to help the victim not the scammers.

They legit going unpunish selling fake rolex.. change the name of the watch.. put a FAKE in the name.. do something more than blaming the victim while helping your "sponsoree"

If u pay 1m instead of 100k.. it's on you.. buyer beware.. but what i've seen around here under BS.. is NOT buyer beware.. it's scamming players with bug exploit or this while blaming the victims.



Imagine if EA staff would have tell me sorry.. nothing we can do..



Story time: Someone gave me a white xmas box around ~2003.. anything I was putting in that box he had access to.. from another box or something.. I never clearly knew what or how.. but the staff at EA were on point. Not this...

I'd agree with Pawain on this; the owners of these vendors are purposefully putting the same exact description to trick people and that should be actioned by a GM once paged. I'd give a little leeway if the description was different like "Same hue as uber rare mature dragon egg", but the fact that the description is literally what is on the mature eggs proves they are purposefully being deceitful. 

That said, I don't think this is a bug more so as it is just scamming. Now what I do think is a bug and that needs to be fixed is the fact that auction items being displayed on VS are not working like non-action items where the cheaper items are placed first... but I think they should be since they also aren't the newest item. 

Below is the mature egg that comes up first on VS for ATL... it's on there for 12.5plat which is no where even close to the blue/purple eggs for 500m. Anyone know how this is possible?

So in uo you can kill people 
Steal from them
 but expecting them to be informed shoppers who read merits banning other people 

@keven2002 ; There was an old thread about Auction safes not putting the items in order.

I only use buy now, so I cant not determine what order they go in.  

I just searched on Atl.  The 12P one is still first.  The others are not in order.  I found a 470M Mature egg, someone bought it while I was clicking it.  There are eggs for 490M to 520M.  

Ya you do have to take a lot of result maps and manually find the lowest price.

As for the Scam eggs.  There are some for 40sM  then there are the 174, 175M ones.  Also they have them on more than one vendor at each scam house.

Someone should put up an egg labeled Mature set for 40M and write, that  REAL Mature eggs are bigger than this!

If one puts a bogus description on an item for sale, misrepresenting what the item is, it is an exploit.  

You people are crazy it clearly says it's not an egg it clearly doesn't look like an egg 3 seconds of reading would have saved this player his money he saw a steal and rushed to buy getting exactly what they deserve

Agree.  Whether anyone bought it or not.

Maybe we can have shopping GMs that go out with people to protect them from evil player vendors 

@keven2002 for the bug exploit.. I was talking about this gem: 
https://forum.uo.com/discussion/16191/a-replica-was-purchased-from-the-vendor-atlantic-shard?

Note how the GM assisted that person.. the vendor has exploit a bug to be able to put that replica on his vendor.
