Guide to Selling Webkinz Items

 Guide to Selling Items

 

 

Here is a guide for what to sell and what not to sell on Webkinz World!  Almost all items and prizes can be sold back to the W-Shop for half their original value/price, though some items are very valuable and shouldn't be sold.  

See my guide for trading and the value of Webkinz items here.

Do Sell:

Duplicates of most things (that you can easily win again or aren't worth trading)

Low value prizes/items that you don't like (from Today's Activities, daily log-in, etc)

Non-deluxe clothing that you don't like

Challenge prizes you don't like (like the smaller, less exciting prizes from the 1st or 2nd part of the challenge)

Common and uncommon Magical Forest prizes

Crown of Wonder 

Farm Fresh Food

Extra food (worth 10kc or more)

Vacation Wheel prizes

Kinzville Academy Recess prizes

Spree! Shopping Bag prizes

Wacky Snack Pack foods

Anything else that is not worth trading but that you don't want

 

Examples of what to sell: 

 

                 

 

Don't Sell:

Rare items

Exclusive items (never sell these!)

Pet Specific items (never sell these!)

Pet of the Month exclusives (never sell these!)

Deluxe prizes (Deluxe Day, Deluxe challenges, etc) 

Deluxe clothing

Most challenge prizes (these are sometimes turned into exclusive items after the challenge is over and made available at the Wish Factory)

Most click-to-win prizes

Grand prizes (Magical Forest, etc)

Some Wheel of Wow / Deluxe Wheel prizes

Most Winterfest or other seasonal prizes (with the exception of duplicates, esp. clothing)

Jumbleberry Fields Jar prizes

Kinzville Academy class prizes (never sell these!) 

Plushies (non W-shop)

Retired items (unless you can still buy it at the Curio Shop)

Spree! Mall prizes

Trophies

Webkinz Newz prizes

Foods worth less than 10 kc (just feed it to your pet, it's not valuable enough to bother selling it)

Examples of what not to sell:

Tip #1: Even if you don't want any of the items mentioned above, I still strongly recommend keeping them and trading them later. That's what I do.  I actually purposely buy extra rare items just to trade (I use my secondary accounts to do this).  Unless you are in serious need of immediate kinzcash, it's not worth it to sell these items. They are just too valuable and difficult to find, and worth a lot more than the kinzcash you will receive for them (especially exclusive items; for some reason these only sell for a couple hundred kc, though they're way more valuable than that).  It's better to trade these items for another valuable item that you do want.  You can trade in the Clubhouse obviously, but I also recommend using the Webkinz subreddit page or the Webkinz Newz trading forum to make trades.  Be patient!  Some items might sit in your storage room for awhile, but someone is likely going to want them at some point (especially as time goes by and the item becomes older and increases in value).  I have multiple storage rooms in my Webkinz house where I keep these items.  Sometimes, items from challenges are made into exclusive items after they have already been released.  Once I won several Dragonfly Wall Art pieces in a challenge and then sold them.  Now you can get them at the Wish Factory for over 30 tokens each!  I definitely regret selling them.

 

Tip #2: The only time I would ever recommend selling a rare item is if you need the money to buy a different rare item (that you want more) from the Curio Shop. Since you don't have much time to do that (>1hr), selling a rare item is a quick way to make the necessary kinzcash. However, I would recommend selling an expensive W-Shop item or two instead, as they can be repurchased far more easily.  I only recommend selling a rare item if you have a duplicate of it and haven't been able to trade it, and don't have any W-Shop items to sell.

Tip #3: As mentioned above, if you need kinzcash quickly, sell large W-Shop items (ex: a TV,  a pool, a stove, or a bed). These items cost the most kc so you will earn back more kinzcash and have to sell less things. It's better to sell one bed than two counters + a chair.  If I need to do this, I choose an item or two from an unfinished room rather than a completed one so I don't mess up any finished designs.

Tip #4: If you have multiple accounts and need kinzcash on one of them, buy three of the most expensive item you can find in the W-Shop and send them to the account that needs kinzcash (I believe the most expensive item is the Oak Paneled Pool), and then sell them on that account.  However, I only recommend doing this when you have a few W-Shop coupons, as you still technically lose kinzcash overall unless you buy the items with coupons that are worth 50% off or more.  See my post about the advantages of having more than one account here.

 

Tip #5: Again, as mentioned above, if you have an extra coupon that is worth more than 50% off (it must be worth at least 60% off or more) you can buy a really expensive W-Shop item and then sell it back right away for a small profit.

Tip #6: Some items can't be traded or sold, which is annoying. If you acquire an item that you don't like and you can't trade it or sell it, put it in a room in your house labelled "Storage" or "Stuff I Can't Sell."  I now have two rooms full of stuff I don't like but can't sell.  It doesn't matter how it looks; I just cram those rooms full of as many items as I can fit.  It's annoying, but this way those items don't take up space in my dock.  I also put wallpaper/flooring that I don't like + can't sell in these rooms.

I hope this helps!

Webkinz Pizza Palace Tips #2

Webkinz Pizza Palace: The Ideal 

Way to Play

The best way to play Pizza Palace is by playing with the order patterns on the screen beside the game. Above is a screenshot of my screen while playing. This way, you can see the level patterns while playing and know what pizzas to make ahead of time.  However, if you are playing on the Desktop app you can only play in full screen mode, but you can pull up the level patterns on your phone instead.

Tip: Don't skip the tutorial. The extra cash is useful later on for upgrading appliances.

 

Prior to level 13, you should upgrade your topping machines and everything else except your last oven and pizza maker.  It it useful to have three upgraded topping machines for level 13 rather than pizza makers, since it is the quarter pizza level and quarter pizzas take very little time to make.

By level 14, you should be able to upgrade all of your appliances.

I hope this helps! Good luck!

How To Increase Your Webkinz Family Score

How To Increase Your Family Score

By increasing your family score, you can earn cool prizes. In this post, I will list some tips for increasing your score and show examples of the prizes you can earn.

 

Tips For Increasing Your Family Score:

Tip #1: Do the task your pet is asking you to do.  Clearly, this is the most obvious way to earn family score points - if your pet is asking you to do something, do it and you will earn around 20-30 points.

Tip #2: Feed your pet, put your pet to bed, or bathe your pet to quickly earn family score points. You don't have to leave your pet in bed for a long time or wait until they are sleepy to earn the points.

Tip #3: Always do the easy tasks (Ex: if your pet asks to do some room redecorating, just quickly drag something random into your room and you will get the family score points).  If your pet asks to play an Arcade game, open the game but only play it for a couple of seconds, then close it.  You'll still get the points.  Some tasks, like doing a job, take longer and either aren't worth doing or aren't possible to do (you can't do a job if you already did one an hour ago).

Tip #4: If your pet isn't asking for anything, try switching pets and see if another pet wants something.  You can still earn points if you feed/bathe/put them to bed even when they're not hungry/dirty/sleepy.

Tip #5: If you have 2 accounts, you can send the family score prizes from one account to the other. Then you get 2x the family score prizes.  See my post about the advantages of having more than one account here.

Tip #6: If you want to earn a bunch of points, feed all of your pets at once. Buy a bunch of food from the W-shop and switch between your pets, feeding them until each one of them is full. You will earn quite a few points by doing this.

Tip #7: Put all of your pets to bed. In the same way that feeding all of your pets will earn you points, putting all of your pets to bed (or bathing them / brushing their teeth) will earn you points.

Tip #8: Playing games / doing activities can earn you points.

Tip #9: Dress your pet or buy your pet clothes / W-shop items.

Tip #10: Exercise your pet by having them run on a treadmill, jump on a trampoline or swim in a pool.  This will earn you points, and you can earn triple the points if you do all three things.

 Family Score Prizes:

I hope these tips help you increase your family score!

Webkinz Deluxe Membership vs Regular

Is A Webkinz Deluxe Membership 
Worth It?

I previously planned to make this post before Ganz changed the features of the regular membership to be a lot more limited.  In my opinion, a Deluxe membership is now necessary to enjoy all of the daily activities and games Webkinz has to offer.  This is annoying, but true.  There is not much else to say on this topic, but I do recommend taking advantage of the 1 month $0.99 Deluxe upgrade that is available once per account.  You can open a second account for free, upgrade it for $0.99, and send prizes and items to your regular account.  I hope this helps, thanks for reading!

Advantages of Having 2 Webkinz Accounts

             Advantages of Having 2 Accounts 

 

Having two (or more!) Webkinz accounts is a great way to earn more kinzcash and prizes as well as finish rooms faster.  I personally have two accounts; my main account, and my sister's old account that she gave me (edit: I now have 4 accounts, though not all are Deluxe).  

Whenever I play Webkinz, I log into my main account and do my daily activities (Wheel of Wow, gem hunt, etc).  Then, I log into my other account and do the same.  I then use the money I earned on my second account to buy things I want for my main account and send them to it through kinzpost.  For example: if I am in the process of designing a kitchen on my main account, I'll use the kc I earned on my second account to buy a stove and a fridge and then I'll send them to my main account (it's more worth it to send really expensive items).  This way, I can use the kc I earned on my main account for other things, like a table and chair for the kitchen, for example.   I also send whatever prizes I win on my secondary accounts to my main account.  This way I earn 2x as many challenge prizes or Deluxe Day prizes, for example.

Advantages of Having 2 Accounts:

- Extra turns on The Wheel of Wow / Deluxe Wheel / Wishing Well 2 and more every day.

- You get to visit the Kinzville Mall and fill your Jumbleberry Fields jars twice as often.

- Extra turns hunting for gems and doing jobs every day. 

- Extra prizes (ex: you can only earn 5 Winterfest prizes per day, but if you have two accounts, you can earn 10)

- You get to buy at least two of the rare item each day (each account is limited to one purchase). I like to buy extras of rare items so that I can trade them for other cool stuff later. See my guide to trading here.

- If there is a pet that has a cool PSI that you want, but you really don't like the pet, you can adopt it on your secondary account and then send the PSI to your main account (you need to adopt pets occasionally to keep your secondary account active anyway).  I personally only like the realistic-looking and signature pets; I usually don't like the patterned or brightly coloured ones, so I don't adopt those on my main account.

- You can get an (almost) free PSI by signing up for a free account (it comes with a free pet and PSI) and then upgrading to a Deluxe or full membership.  Next, send the PSIs to your main account. This only costs $0.99 to do, as new accounts can sign up for a 1 month Deluxe membership for just $0.99.

*Note: You do not need to have a Deluxe membership on your second account to do most of these things!  Full members (non-Deluxe) can still send items through kinzpost (which is the main feature you need here).  Free members cannot send gifts through kinzpost, however.

I hope this helps!

The Employment Office

The Employment Office 

Doing jobs at the Employment Office is one of my main ways of earning kinzcash.  If you do the right jobs often, you can start earning a lot of kinzcash there every day. 

How to earning a lot of kinzcash:

Tip #1: Master a hard job. As you can see on the chart below, the jobs are divided into 3 categories: Easy, Medium, and Hard.  If you make it to level 3 on a hard job, that means you will earn 350 kinzcash every time you do that job. There are only 2 hard jobs; Kinzpost Sorter and Kinzville Mover.  I highly recommend Kinzville Mover.  I personally find it a lot easier and quicker to complete.  

Tip #2: Go deluxe.  I realize that that isn't an option for everyone, but if you can go deluxe, do.  You get to do an extra job every day. So, if I master a hard job like Kinzville Mover, I can potentially earn 700 kinzcash a day by doing that job twice.  

Tip #3: Do jobs more than once a day.  Since you can do a job every 8 hours, you can potentially do 3 jobs per day (not including your Deluxe job).  If I do the Kinzville Mover three times a day, plus one extra Deluxe time, I can potentially earn 1400 kinzcash a day at the Employment Office.  However, that isn't very realistic, as few people have the time to do that. If you can though, try going on Webkinz in the morning, do a job + your Deluxe job, then log on in the afternoon/evening and do another job.  That is more realistic, and you will earn 1050 kinzcash!  

Tip #4: Have at least two medium-level back-up jobs that you can do if there are no hard jobs available that hour.  You should be level three in these jobs (you will earn 250 kc each time).  I like the Grocery Clerk job and the Babysitter job; they are the easiest medium jobs in my opinion.  If you are a fast typer, the Ms. Birdy's Assistant job is not that hard either.

Tip #5: Sometimes you can do extra jobs if you go to Today's Activities.  You don't get to choose what extra job you do, so it's a good idea to be level 3 in most jobs so that you can earn the maximum amount of kinzcash.

I hope this helps!
