Sleipnir frenzy

Well it's been a while since we've seen such excitement on Howrse. The announcement that it would (for a few days at least) be possible to win a Sleipnir in a Horn of Plenty has seen sales of 'Instant Pass Horses' go through the roof, with them selling for up to 50,000 equus. Crazy money. But great for players who were selling them and making huge amounts of money.

One or two interesting facts about the current 'special offer'. Firstly, many of the Sleipnir's seem to have gone to either players who have been on the game for a very long time, or, players who have only been on a few days. Hmmm. Also, it seems that the number of passes you buy doesn't increase your chances of getting one. I know one person who spent 61 passes and got nothing whilst another bought just one, single pass and got one! Maybe it's just luck.....

  3. 50,000e only?
    Sleipnirs usually are worth either 200,000e and 20 passes and can get up to over 4 million+ in the auctions.

  4. 50,000e was the price instant pass horses were selling for (so players could use the pass to try their luck with a HoP), not Sleipnirs themselves.

    Sleipnirs tend to go for 6 million + these days.
