I made this theory while creating a guide for the spanish forum about the prices of ruby buildings. Doing that I found a great paradox and came up with two logical solutions to the problem.
The first one: I have wrong info, wich means that someone with access to the buildings will have to look it up.
The second one: GGE's algorithm makes ruby buildings cheaper the lower the level of the buyer.
Now, the matter: I have a lvl 9 account that I use to lookup things in-game and take screenshots to make step-to-step guide, however, looking up ruby buildings and comparing with angus' guide, I found out that:
In my acc the Training Scarecrow and the Nymph Fountain cost 350 and 500 rubies.
While, in angus' guide it says that their price is 875 and 1.250
Here are screenshots from my lvl 9 acc (In the chinese server).
Angus' guide:
Look up by yourselves what the price is for you at higher levels and help me confirm this theory.

Thank you very much.
The mistery has been solved, and the theory was wrong.
Thus, there are two things to do now.

what i want to know is why people would spend 7.4k rubies on a 205 po item when they can easily get one from nomads
