Hello everyone,Pretty much since Plopsy was added, I was wondering how high (more like "how absurd") can its money-making potential get. The thing is, most small objects have a low value, and thus won't sell for that much, because Plopsy just multiplies it by a number around 3.However, one object stood out for the first moment: The camping mascot. Those are priced way higher than the usual woodworking decor and max-quality can inflate it a lot.https://i.imgur.com/Nv3WIrD.pngBut everyone playing for a while knows that the true jackpot is in paintings. With the reward traits Marketable and Creative Visionary, I've made a few paintings that reached over 5k. So I tried how far can Plopsy push it. With both reward traits as well as 'Support the creative arts' NAP.My current jackpot is nearing 30k with the painting of... a carrot.https://i.imgur.com/AGEhiyx.jpgSo, I wanted to see what other people managed with Plopsy. What are your best sales on all sorts of stuff? Can the high-level knitted items (sweaters, mostly) sell for a lot?

didn't people in RL go bonkers over a banana duck taped to the wall? Wasn't there some banksy art that got shredded the moment the bidding war ended? People pay dumb prices for art.

Seems like my highly noble families should start painting! I still don't know how high bills a fully decorated castle will cause. Neither I know how to pay them without cheating...

If it can be listed on Plopsy, there should be an option to "List on Plopsy" for 5 simoleans. The item will then have a pink background. When someone wants to buy it, there will be a chime, a popup notification, and the background will turn blue. You can then click to "ship on plopsy" and it will tell you how much the item will sell for.On the topic in general, I've done quite nicely with selling floral arrangements, especially once my sim started being able to churn out masterworks. And that's without him having the reward traits.

Thank you Both @DaWaterRat & @FatTribble23 Now, I just have to get a Sim to knit more stuff. ;)

Sims are buying your floral arrangements?? All my sim got were multiple spoilt arrangements on her hands.

Its there any trick to actually sell something on plopsy?? i cant even sell a paint. Been trying since three days ago in my new sim, no luck lol. I have already about 10 paintings waiting to be sold. Ridiculous. This was my last resource to be able to pay my lot taxes.. oh well.

As with reality, there seems to be something like "too much stuff" - I'm doing the best with 2-3 items on sale at once (per sim, probably). That way, most items get sold on the first try.

Erm, well, not in my case. I started with three paintings for the first week, no sells. Then i thought increasing the number will at least increase the chances of sell something... no dice lol. Now, more than one month after i still didnt sell anything. I mean, come on...
