Special item

Specials are a type of item that's re-sellable and re-tradeable. Once an item is made special, they grow a value and demand which can be increased or lowered due to certain circumstances. The value is typically based on how many people own them, also called stock/copies. Things like the original price point, appearance and specific serials can further increase the value a special holds.
Once a special is sold, it receives a serial based on how many buyers bought it before you. For example, If you were the first person to buy it, you'd receive serial #1. Serials can increase how valuable your copy is. If it's very low (i.e Serial #2), then it can sell for a higher amount, but under certain circumstances higher serials can sell for more, these are only if the numbers have popularity in the media, like #69, #420, #666 or if the user likes to own a specific serial.
Some specials may get hoarded, which is when someone owns an excessive amount of copies of one special. This is especially bad for rarer specials as it means they're taken out of circulation. Users who want it will have a more difficult time finding one they can trade for, and the specials in the hoard will likely not get traded by the user until their hoard gets "released" either by themselves or removal from a terminated users crate. 
There's two types of classifications for Special items, "Special" and "Special-E"s items.
===Special item===
A special item is an item that started out as normal item, but was later converted into being a special. 
Typically items with lower owners will be converted, but there have been occurrences where items with over 1000 owners have been made into a special. Items will be taken offsale to be converted into Specials if they aren't already offsale. Typically, these items will have a larger amount of stock and copies as they're not given a set one like Special Es are. 
You can tell an item is a Special item based off the fact they're marked with a yellow border and a white star in the shop.
===Special E===
Special E specials (Also called Special Editions) are items specifically made and put on shop as a special. Once they're released, they're set with a certain stock and price. They automatically have a value once they're released, but this value can be driven up or down. Unlike Special items, It's set with a limited amount of copies that are available for purchase. Users can decide to put them up for sale or trade them directly after they're sold out.
You can tell an item is a Special E item based off the fact they're marked with a yellow border and red star in the shop.
===History===
Back in the Alpha/Beta stages of Brick Hill, Specials were called "Collectables" instead. They had a completely different border from what it is now. Special Es were called "Collectable Edition Items" while normal Specials were called "Collectable Items". There was a "Legend" or "Key "on the shop page as well explaining the difference between the two variants.
