Buyer Beware: Medieval Fantasy Fantastical Wings Vs. Animated Fantastical Wings

buyerbeware - DefaultWings vs. wings in this buyer beware.  The twist, is that they are identical in every way.

Zynga has done it again. Once more, they have put players coins in harms way by releasing items identical to their predecessors. The previously released Medieval Fantasy Fantastical Wings which were released with a 10 YoCash price tag have now been re-released in an animated version. Identical in look and colors, the only difference being that the new ones allow your avatar to fly when wearing them.

Here are the first wings released:

The new animated version of the wings looks like this:

As you can see, apart from the price and the name given to the items, there is no difference between the previously released item (top) and the newly released item (lower). So, how will you know what you are buying if purchasing these at a sale/event? In trade, mouse over the wings. The name will then be visible. Remember this, if you want to buy the wings that will allow you to fly, then look for “Animated” in the name in the trade box. If they don’t say animated and you wanted flying wings, then don’t buy. (Please note, the wings are available in all colors, both old and new, and the male version of the wings have also been re-released).

We bring you this news to help you to keep yourself and your money safe in YoVille. It doesn’t help that Zynga releases items that can cause problems when trading, such as items previously released with a slight difference. A previous instance where this occurred was with  the Yo-Survivor dresses, one was animated and the other wasn’t, but both looked the same.

Why do you think Zynga does this when designing or redesigning items? Do you think that they think about what could happen to players, or do you think they don’t consider these things when designing? We would like to hear your thoughts on this, please share them in the comments box below.
