Bought 60000 Cryptic Clues instead of correctly selling them.

Probably those 700 echoes I used on primordial shrieks to use in my plan to propel the Bazaar through the roof of the Neath and into the sun in a fiery explosion of hydrogen and space crab.

No, you just hasn't spend enough, you need 700000 echoes of shrieks!

I learned that the hard way. RIP Julias Stokes 1880 - 1894

I sold a bunch of stuff on my Seeker to purchase 777 Pulsating Amber, so my current record is 77,700 (loss of 29,137.50 total worth). I don't think I'll be beating that anytime soon.

    I spent several hundred echoes of my Nadir payout buying four card lodgings outright.

    Completely worth it.

    Around 25K echoes spent on Seeking in one day. It was to try do side-conversions and try a challenge so that I could finish the story quickly. The worst thing is : it was for nothing, I failed each single time, and managed to get a success some days later.

    I've just about purchased every possible piece of clothing and companion in the Bazaar despite already owning the best possible gear for each stat.

    Only the Overgoat, the Cider, and a few other items of misc clothing remain. So overall that is a lot of echoes wasted.

    Because I like hats. Also to honor NiteBrite's journey going NORTH. But yeah, I may end up starting over with my hats should I get too bored.

    5000 echoes on Bazaar items for my collection, what? I was sick of the Goat grind.

    i was trying to unlock all the locations on "open parts of the city" storylet. the only one i dont have is mahogany hall. even though i know there isnt anything there for me (yet), i still want to unlock it to see the background and hear the music.

    so, i sold my primaeval hint to buy the required items from scratch. after buying stuff and unlocking mahogany hall, i still have echoes left and bought the working rat. dunno the exact amount of echoes.

    The amount of echoes spent levelling my orphanage quality to get the Laconic Prodigy. To say nothing of the fate costs...

    Seeking. I spent at least 4000 echoes on cryptic clues, probably 6k+ Alternatively, depending on your definition of spent, stockpiling all the wine on my mantlepeice. Depending on how you count it, that's the entire value of the tears, or simply the value of the sacrificed airag echoes [437.5-312.5]*34 =(4250 echoes) or not even that. so it could count, but whether it does is another matter.

    well, let me count:
    20 lucky weasels - 8 echoes
    10 sulky bats - 4 echoes
    10 lizards - 4 echoes
    10 talkative rats - 8 echoes
    10 ridiculous hats - 8 echoes
    i already have the glove, secrets and silks

    so. 32 echoes.

    I personally used up around 400/500 Echoes today buying 16,500 Drops of Prisoner's Honey. :P
