Ganz ruins the Webkinz Curio Shop

An interesting move has been made by Ganz, the creators of the popular online web-game Webkinz, and by ‘interesting’ I mean bad for the users. The company has recently revamped the game’s Curio Shop, a place where rare and discounted items can be found. Before, there was a way for fan sites to determine which rare items would be available each day, and players could then be on at that time and buy as many as they wished. Now Ganz has altered the structure so fan sites can no longer determine what will be there. It gets worse – a limit has been placed on how many rare items can be bought when they are available.
