- Regular value remained unchanged: $3,500,000 → $3,500,000.
- Duped value increased: $3,000,000 → $3,250,000.
Value Change Explanation:
Earthquake staying at $3,500,000 made sense to voters because the market signals at poll time pointed to stability rather than a clear push up or down in Jailbreak Trading. As a pass-exclusive seasonal texture tied to the Level 5 requirement in S4, its supply is inherently capped, yet it is not so inaccessible that price discovery breaks down or forces abrupt repricing. The Collector Rarity Score of 378 supports the idea that it is meaningfully rare, but the last-month distribution of 131 circulating copies shows it is still present enough on Trading Island for buyers to comparison shop and resist overpaying. That balance typically anchors values, since sellers can find interest without needing to dump, while buyers can wait for a fair offer without fearing the item vanishes. Demand was the biggest brake on any upward adjustment, with a 2.01 out of 10 rating signaling that most traders view it as a niche cosmetic rather than a must-have flex item. Low demand also means that even when the item is scarce, the marginal buyer pool is small, so raising the listed value would risk widening the gap between sticker price and what trades actually clear for. At the same time, the activity level was not dead, as 263 trades in the last month indicates consistent liquidity for a limited texture, which reduces panic selling pressure. That steady turnover suggests the current trading value already matches the price point where deals can happen regularly, so a downward correction was not strongly justified either. Another stabilizing factor is the nature of textures, where subjective preference drives willingness to pay, creating a wide spread of offers that averages out around an established reference point. In such cases, poll participants often prefer keeping the current value when the community is split between collectors who pay a premium for S4 exclusivity and casual traders who treat it as a lower-priority cosmetic. The duped value at $3,000,000 also likely reinforced the decision to hold the trading value, because a meaningful gap between clean-market pricing and duped pricing can persist without forcing a change when demand is low and verification risk is priced in. If the trading value were raised, that gap could encourage more contentious negotiations and increase sensitivity to provenance, while a cut toward the duped number could punish legitimate holders despite ongoing trade flow. Overall sentiment likely read as “fair but not hot,” where rarity supports the floor, low demand caps the ceiling, and healthy monthly trades confirm that $3,500,000 remains the most practical consensus marker for Earthquake in the Jailbreak Trading Network’s valuation framework.
Additional Item Information:
Earthquake is a cosmetic texture in the Jailbreak Trading Expansion that reads as a high-energy, ground-rumbling theme, designed to make vehicles feel louder visually. In-game it presents as a crackled, fractured pattern that suggests seismic stress lines, giving flat body panels a broken-stone vibe. The look tends to pop most on broad surfaces like hoods, roofs, and doors, where the “fault lines” can stretch and feel more dramatic. As a texture it does not change hitboxes, acceleration, top speed, or any mechanical behavior, but it can affect perceived speed by making motion look busier. Players often report it feels “aggressive” or “chaotic” compared to cleaner finishes, which can help a build stand out in crowds. Originally, Earthquake was obtained by reaching Level 5 in Season 4 as a Pass Exclusive reward, so it was limited by both time and the season pass gate. After its season ended, direct earning stopped, and its practical acquisition shifted to Trading Island via player-to-player trades. It remains limited in circulation, with a measured distribution of 131 copies, which keeps it from being truly common even if it is not a top-tier chase. In the current trading climate, its demand sits at 2.01 and is considered Low, meaning it can be harder to move quickly despite scarcity. Its Collector Rarity Score of 378 signals meaningful collectability, yet liquidity depends heavily on the buyer’s taste in bold cosmetics. The Times Traded count of 263 indicates it circulates, but not at the frantic pace seen with universally desired staples. Pricing behavior is therefore split: collectors value the low-copy count, while casual traders may discount it if they dislike loud textures. Inspiration-wise, the concept aligns with earthquake imagery, evoking cracked earth, fault lines, and the visual language of tremors. The design also fits Jailbreak’s tradition of thematic, punchy cosmetics that communicate a “story” without adding gameplay power. Performance considerations are purely practical and cosmetic: it can either help or hurt stealth depending on environment. In brighter areas it can draw attention, while in darker zones the fractured pattern can break up silhouettes and reduce readability. For screenshots and flex builds, it pairs well with rugged rims and darker windows, but it can clash with glossy, minimalist setups. Updates and changes for Earthquake have not been defined by major reworks in the Trading Expansion context, and its core identity stays anchored to being a Season 4 pass-locked texture. Any perceived shifts in value have mostly come from trading-era market dynamics rather than balance passes. Community reception has been niche-positive: collectors respect it for being time-gated and low in copies, while broader demand remains muted. As a legacy item, it functions more as a tasteful collector’s badge than a universal status symbol, signaling Season 4 participation or a trader’s willingness to hunt. It also occupies an interesting middle ground where rarity can exceed hype, creating opportunities for patient traders. Trivia-wise, its low distribution makes “matching sets” uncommon, so full builds using Earthquake across multiple vehicles can feel notably exclusive. Another quirk is that because it is pass-exclusive, some traders treat it as a proof-of-commitment cosmetic, even when the market demand is low. Despite the modest demand rating, Earthquake can spike in desirability when a player is assembling a themed inventory, since subjective preference can outweigh typical pricing logic in cosmetics.
