After checking on this with the devs, I believe they decided to let me keep it. I mean, I still have it! This was acquired while I was attempting a Christmas scroll and the statue wasn't locked down when I luckily and somehow clicked and dragged at the right time! It was a crazy moment for sure as I had given up hope of checking on deco items as they are always locked down. There appear to be 5 total on the server. This isn't something that I imagine will come around again unless decorators make another mistake! Good luck to all! I will accept: Gold Christmas Scrolls @ 150k each(max 100) Flaming/Blaze sandals: 10m Blaze runebook/spell book: 10m Blaze mask of some kind: 10m SB - 20 million (@SteelyDan) B/I - 1 million BO - 60 million *Half of the winning bid must be in gold. I will end this auction on 04/24/2019 to allow as many people as possible to see the auction and also farm for more gold if needed.
If there are 5, it seems to be a super rare spawning rare that only you and a few other got Nice item, good luck with the auction!
Its not a spawning rare. I believe the other 4 were from several years back. It is a 'oops, forgot to lock down while decorating' rare.
Definitely interested. I’d accept those at 10m valuation in the final price. Updated OP on accepted items.
Talon, Just so I am clear, you believe the devs let you keep it? Can we get any confirmation? @Chris @The Cigarette Smoking Man @Samorite @Treasureman
I believe that is likely the case. A few years ago during a Halloween instance where you had to follow footsteps to access a roof with prizes... I missed the actual prizes in the chests but was checking everything. There were 4 hanging lanterns from wooden posts... One of each hue i was able to grab since they weren't locked. I pmd @Chris saying i got the lanterns!!! I was super excited!! Turned out they weren't actual prizes just something overlooked when when deco was being secured thus was able to keep them. That statue has prolly been unlocked for your years and I bet hardcore xmas scrollers like @LesClaypool are kicking themselves for missing it.
This is how rares got started on UO, a single candelabra in Brit bank if memory serves me correctly - thus starting the pastime of the rich. Another string to the bow of activities UO has offered us for over 20 years. Full disclosure I'm not bidding but wanted to know if this item is rotatable? You said there was 5 in total on the server, 2 of these on the doorstep of any 2 story home would look prestigious as a mother fucker.
