Voted yes. I tried to buy some donuts for my wife without her knowing it about a year ago. Contacted EA and they had no way to do it, so I had to 'hack' her iPad (not really, but I needed to change her iTunes info to put them on my credit card). Ever since then I wish I could gift things to others, either donuts or some of my unused multiples.

I suspect all those folks with an extra lemon tree or SVT forever stuck in their inventory will be on board with this idea. I doubt they'll ever implement anything like this, though.

this has been discussed so many times. I'm leaving it open, but another mod may decide it's to be closed. Good luck and welcome to the forum!!!!

What about a maybe option? I think that would be very cool. There's lots of stuff I have that I don't need and lots of stuff I'd like that my neighbors don't need. But these systems can also be abused. It would have to be very well thought out before implemented. I know other games have features like this so I believe it could be done.

Whats to stop people opening lots of accounts, getting lots of the premium stuff any 'donating' it to their premier account.

Tbh i wouldnt mind this option specially to help with giving over some in game cash to my daughters town for example

Although i cant see this actually being implemented by EA tho, due to people being able to take full advantage of the system some might even say "exploit" the option :P

I'd like to offload my additional lard lads, I hate that you can earn more than one. Stupid new boxes.

I love the idea, but it opens the platform up to people monetizing their inventory, and EA (and any other game company) hates the idea of others making money off their game.

I think a trade algorithm could be put in for a trading platform though.

You offer something that's worth X doughnuts in exchange for another item worth a similar amount of doughnuts (say within 10%) and then you could have a fun way to trade discontinued items, or extras.

See I really doubt that would happen... Tapped out is not the type of game that people would ever exploit.
