Special Crate/Special Item Appreciation & Discussion Thread

[Amy Vinewood]

I've filled up 2 large warehouses and not had the call. Must be a glitch I assume or am I just THAT unlucky?

Same here, i made over 1,000,000 in sales and 100% successful deliveries, and still no call.

[lll-H-I-M-lll]

2 large warehouses ive filled 100% success rate and ive got a egg thats it

Hey guys just got my first special item call at 40% crates, not sure what it is yet I have a cooldown but how do I sell it aside from my other crates ?

[A.I.R]

I have fill my small warehouse 2 time. The first one i dont have any call about the special item. Went i wasbuying my number 13 cargo she call me to get a big diamond.

[SeveralChickens]

Despite making some complaints, yes, I love this update.

 

And yes, you can still make valid complaints about something whilst loving it at the same time.

[CarimboHanky]

i think buying just 2 crates have something that trigger the special item thing...

 

while filling my warehouse i only received 1 special item when i had around 57 and i had bought 2 crates by mistake.

 

now im filling my warehouse again, alternating between 3 crates and 2 crates and on my 10th order(2 crates) i received the call for a special item.

Gold Minigun:

Paid 23 or 24k and it's worth 115k

I was helping my friend with his cargos and he got the special item phone call from his assistant, we then got it and sold it. During the selling mission I got phone call from my own assistant saying that I have special item waiting for me. It's kinda cool because I wasn't even CEO at that moment.

[Alec Skorpio]

Special Items are bugged I swear. First time I got the call, I head to my office and there it is. Every time I've gotten a call since, I get to my office and it's just regular ass special crates.

It can't be that I'm not getting there fast enough as I reach the office before the buy cooldown is over.

 

Can other people in the session buy it out from under you? That's the only other thing I can think of but I swear the second special item I got there was nobody but me and my friend but I can't be positive of that.

[King Rossey]

Did you check single boxes? If so, mhh might be bugged, I've had the same problem. We tried to count, to see a routine in it, but it does not fit mine. My friend got his almost at every 25 purchase, mine were after the 20th, 60th, 100th...

[TheTruthIsFree]

Just got my first call, hauled ass to the office and when I checked the warehouse, no special item. Thanks a lot R*..

[Tha Saucier]

Of course these are bugged, think about how many other similar rare and random items/events were bugged(albeit some for the better). Armored cars, crate drops, special crate drops, smuggler planes.....

 

I've filled just under 3 large warehouses and have only gotten the film reel. I don't need the money I just want the rare items. Thx again, R*tards.

[DiemessGTA]

I can confirm this bug is happening. I get this phone call from my assistant telling me about the special item every time I join a new lobby, but as soon as I check the computer in the office....No special crate to buy

I finally got one last night, golden minigun for $23k ($115k sell on). Is there an ideal time to sell it - straight away, full warehouse, does it have any effect on anything?

[ash-274]

42 purchase transactions (80 crates)

One call (nothing on the computer)

Zero "Unique" cargo offers

[ash-274]

I have a question about selling these:

If you have one or more of these "unique" items, can you sell all the other "normal" crates, leaving only unique items in a warehouse?

[mr.booya]

Ive gotten the egg,diamond, and now i have a rare pocket watch sitting in my warehouse

 

are all these in the same warehouse, or different warehouses?

i'm wondering if anyone has more than one stored at the same warehouse at the same time. i have three items, but they're in diff warehouses.

[SweetG420]

Yes you can sell all your normal crates and still have your rare items stored.

 

You can store as many rare items as you want in one warehouse but when you are doing normal crate sales you don't get the maximum profits.

Will any of the stuff in my office (money etc) will be lost when i change the interior?

No it will not. You may only loose some money if you make big purchases, like expensive pegasus vehicles and such.

[ash-274]

I got the call and it was available on the website. Got the crashed-plane buying scenario and got myself the pocket watch.

 

Does anyone have more than one rare item in the same warehouse?

Yup, that's mine right now

 

 

I previously had Rare Pocket Watch and Ornamental Egg stored there simultaneously with some other cargo but after selling usual cargo mission went awry RPW just transformed in Electronic goods while computer was still saying that I have 2 Special items, so I sold them and started gathering anew.

[CrazyFerret]

People, stop confusing special cargo with special items. Special cargo is what you buy all the the time. Special items are the ones you get a call for, cost more, and sell for a lot more.

 

@king rossey. Once you answer the call and the secretary tells you to come back to the office to set up the deal, you go to your computer, click on a warehouse, and instead of the top option saying "1 crate, $2,000" or whatever, it'll say "special item", and the price anywhere from 20k to 30k.

 

 

So my assistant called me and told me there is a special item he had a lead on, and to hurry back to the office to "set it up"... Well I was in my apartment at Richard's Majestic and my Office is Lombank.

 

Took me less then 30 seconds to race over on my Bati 801.

 

Went straight to my computer and logged in...

 

-and no special crate or special item, or whatever... just, the normal stuff.

 

How, how exactly do you get these and how do you "set them up" ?
