Occasionally, I'll spot an ad listing 10 mallets, deeds or markers at 1 coin, 10 coins, or half-priced. Before my long leave of absence from Hay Day, I rarely noticed this. Until, I started playing again a few days ago

Level 42 farm, no truck deliveries, 195 player visits in 1 day, revenue (1 day) 539
I looked in fishing area and I am confused... 2 spot opens, but no fish book... nothing on the land

*cough* bots *cough*
Bot's that are wheating/corning like mad to accumulate mostly Barn, but also Silo tools to try sell them for real money.
Land Expansion tools don't share the same level of demand, so they just sell them at 1 coin so make them disappear as quickly as possible to continue selling wheat & corn cheap also. It's all about preventing; or delaying their Silo & Barn getting full.
If you happen to find one with such traits report it in game to Help & Support. That might help get it banned. No way that would be a legit farm.
There are some legit farmers that 'share the wealth' and sell them at 1 coin; but I'm very confident this is not one of them.
I will report... it is a little different than previous BOT farms I have seen, you know the wheat ones.
Bot organisations - yes they are organised crime - constantly change their tactics in order to get past SC's defenses. Old-type wheating bots are easily spotted and blocked, so new approaches are only to be expected.
I reported this and I have reported BOT farms in the past. I really don't understand the "Why". I guess anything for the almighty buck.
If I did not earn the buck, I don't want it... it goes for everything i do :(
Oh, how better the world would be if everyone thought the same way! For me, I would rather live in a dirt floor hut and know that the bread on my shelf was purchased with money I earned, than live in comfort among things that were given to me or stolen. A person grows a lot of self worth and nurtures fortitude by earning what he/she possesses, no matter how meager those possessions may be:)Quote:

Just because it's not in a NH doesn't mean it isn't in contact with other farmers, and so those sales could be the helper farm transferring goods to the main farm. That would also explain why there are no truck deliveries.
I see these too often not to believe it's not a bot farm. They only post 1 set of 10 LEM @ 1 coin--and nothing else. The farms also look similar in design, and are around level 40.
