OK, so I really want to get a Exceptional Genetic Test Kit for my pets, but I can't get any diamonds. Is there a way that you can get diamonds without paying a lot of money. I have no diamonds at the moment, and they're SO expensive to try and buy with gold.

There's no other way to get diamonds (besides outright buying it with cash) than buying it with gold in the exchange. :(

So people save up a lot of their gold and wait for either sales (where the text kits drop from 1500 diamonds to 1000) or the prices of diamonds to drop (I'm not keen on diamond prices, but sometimes they're cheaper in some periods of time than other times, such as during festivals, near eggling auctions when people need gold).

Unfortunately, people can't see your Inventory, Mistenbelle; only you can.

Flute is quite right. To get Diamonds, you either buy them with real-world money or save up gold and buy them with gold. However, getting that gold is not as hard as it seems at first.

I see you have Mission pets, which is great. Have you considered making some of your pets available for public breeding? You have your Starter pet--Starters are popular with breeders--and I noticed two handsome 6-Vis Zolnixi in your Stables. I charge 1,000 gold to people who want to breed with my Starter, and he's fathered 75 offspring. You can charge more for a female Starter, of course.

Meanwhile, my advice is get in the habit of checking the Exchange. Watch how the cost of Diamonds goes down, up, down, up, so that when you have your gold saved up you will know what a low price is and about when you should expect prices to rise and fall. (Hint, anytime the Sylestia Administrators put Diamonds on sale for RW cash, the price of Diamonds in gold usually drops too. Lots of people who can't play often are buying Diamonds for RW cash and then selling them for the gold that they have trouble earning. You can't feed your pets with Diamonds!)

In addition, if you need to get a pet genetically tested, there are a number of people who have Exceptional Genetic Test Kits and will test a pet for free. To find these people, go to the Breeding Discussion forum and look for the threads with titles like "Free Testing."
