Ever been curious about the magical world of Unconverted Pets, or UCs as we call them nowadays?? How it happened, how people felt about them, how they traded, and what is going to happen next?? Do you think your precious BN UC is worth more than what the current guides say?? Now is your chance to look back in time on Neopets and see how these elusive pets have survived and the legacy that they have created
As an avid Neopets player and person who loves to trade, I hope this guide provided a little nostalgia and insight into UC trading and where we have been as a community, and hopefully where we will go in the future Happy trading!!

Without these helpful community members, the guide would not look as great as it does or be as complete as it is!!
@(you need an account to see links) - HUGE help with Dark Ages pet trading information and linking 3 new UC guides
@(you need an account to see links) - More information on Draiks shortly after the conversion!! Can you imagine if they still traded for
T7-9 pets now?! @(you need an account to see links) and the other community members for the contributions on the old UC Price/Value Guide!

I have lurked on the pound chat since I discovered I could lie about my birthday to get on the boards.
Gosh, I remember 9/9/9 and the madness the PC was during it. Still mad at myself for not trying to make one with everyone.
It seems like i was wrong and others have corrected me
Wasn’t Za the cream of the crop for a hearty amount of time before Efflie? and Trlem (Trelm?) before Treid?
There was one before Za as well that’s escaping me. It’s funny to me that a few of the “rare” pets in these old tier lists are now “common”
Thank you for this post

Update: Prior to 9/9/9, Krawks & Draiks traded for T3/T4 UCs, before Draiks took a slight hit to T2 UCs after the "event". Excluding collectors, Draiks created on this day simply became equal to normal Draiks in regard to trading value
Just wanted to add that in 2007-2008, VWN draiks readily traded for up to T9. I traded a draik in 2008 for a VWN RG Myncii
Dude! This was very interesting and so well written. Good job!
I wasn't much into trading back in the day, so I don't know anything, but please take this UC Tyrannian Usul as a form of appreciation.

What a beautiful pet wow oh wow!! I'm glad you appreciated it It was a lot of fun for me to figure out, and compile all this stuff together before it gets lost to the sands of time!!
I wanted to include a meme pet and I cannot believe someone compiled the most expensive neopet to ever exist LOL
I'm glad you enjoyed reading this all as much as I enjoyed making it

so big question for this!! Converted draiks traded THAT well?? So in the timeline, they dropped like 7 tiers after 9/9/9 and 2 years??:o I wanna try and make sure I don't have super conflicting info on the guide!! But I absolutely trust your input because I was not a big trader AT ALL in that point in time
Oh, thank you for this post.
It just made me realise that there are pets that weren't converted. Is there a list of those. I would love to see the art for what didn't make it.

Hey Andy! They certainly did within the first year of conversion, as they were so hard to get and people wanted to dress up Draiks! I recall having a few different offers around T7-T9 (current tiers). They dropped fairly radically in the year following 9/9/9, and people wanting Draiks were often excluding 9/9/9 Draiks, they were almost a bit 'tainted 'so to speak.
I took hiatus from 2011-2013 so I cannot speak for how the Forgotten Shore affected this further, but when I came back Draiks and Krawks were trading for so much less, it was a pretty big shock.
