Mafia Wars Marketplace – Fight Club
May/100
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
If you have looked at the Mafia Wars Marketplace lately you have no doubt come across the Fight Club Items. With Zynga being pretty closed mouthed about fight club it seems odd that they would be offering items for a feature that has not even made it to the live game yet.
Here is list of the items that are being offered for Fight Club.

The Cost column in this table represents cost in Victory Coins.
I find it rather disturbing that these items are being offered before the feature has entered live play. Call me old fashioned but I believe in getting what I pay for. While I am not saying that the folks at Zynga are dishonest stranger things have happened in gaming before. Take Sony’s Star Wars: Galaxies for instance and the fiasco that went on with the Mustafar expansion and the New Gaming Experience. In that situation many people paid for an expansion only to have the entire game changed about 2 weeks later.
Zynga thus far has given me no reason to thing that they are running something shady but I will save my money until the feature goes live then decide if I want to purchase.
Mafia Wars Marketplace – Consumables
May/100
One of the biggest pains in the butt that you will encounter when playing Mafia Wars is running out of consumable items. Every city has its own consumables and when you are trying to level as quickly as possible there is nothing as frustrating as having to go back and do jobs just for consumables.
There have been many complaints about the problem on various forums spread across the Internet and Zynga being the consummate business that it is both listened and expanded monetization of their brand by making consumables available in the Marketplace.
Here is a complete list of consumables that are being offered.

The Cost column in this table represents cost in Reward Points.
While I would rather go back and do jobs over and over for consumables there may be some who would rather buy them. If you have a large number of Reward Points then you may want to purchase them to speed leveling, otherwise you will be doing some jobs literally hundreds of times.
Mafia Wars Marketplace – Crates
May/100
Zynga has been making crates available nearly since the day that Mafia Wars was released and they are definitely something that millions of players spend Reward Points on. Most of the time the crates are linked to an event, holiday, or even a movie but now you can purchase two types of crates in the Mafia Wars Marketplace.
As with all crates the chances each of these has a chance to grab rare, uncommon, and common loot. Chances are listed below.
Rare – 10%
Uncommon – 30%
Common – 60%
These chances remain the same regardless of purchasing 1 or 3 crates.
Here are the two types of crates that you can pick up in the Marketplace at this time.

Unfortunately I cannot find a full list of items that are inside the Stuffed Crates. All that Zynga says about it is that it is “Bursting at the seams with regular crate items and a bunch of additional goodies.” When I find a reliable list I will update this post.

The Cost column in this table represents cost in Reward Points.
As I have said many times the only thing that I ever spend Reward Points on is +4 Skill Points, but if you are the kind of player who likes to take a chance and possibly get some decent gear then crates might be right up your alley.
Mafia Wars Marketplace – Boosts
May/100
For quite some time boosts have been a big part of the Mafia Wars universe. Boosts are acquired by re-vaulting collection items which can sometimes be a pain in the butt. Boosts are a very handy thing to have lying around when you decide to attack other players or are inevitably attacked by other players.
The folks at Zynga have made getting large amounts of boosts possible my making them part of the Mafia Wars Marketplace. Below is a complete list of all boosts that are available in the Marketplace along with the boost that they bestow and the cost involved.

As most of you know I reserve Reward Points exclusively for +4 skill points but if you are having problems with other players and need to defend yourself or kick someone’s ass then you now have access to boosts that might give you the upper hand.
Mafia Wars Marketplace – Bundles
May/100
You can purchase computer bundles, software bundles and much more so why not Mafia Wars Bundles? Zynga have long been very good at marketing various items within the Marketplace and as most business do, they offer a “bundle” of items all for a single price.

The Cost column in this table represents cost in Reward Points.
If you are trying to get a leg up on the competition then these bundles might just be the ticket you are looking for. These bundles really are a good by for the price. If you purchased the items separately they would cost 99 Reward Points for each but with the 20% discount you can get them for as little as 79.
Personally I have never been one to purchase these type items from the Marketplace since I think that the only thing you should be spending Reward Points on is +4 Skill points but all in all the bundles are pretty good deals.

The Mafia Wars Marketplace – Stat Items
May/100
Over the three years that Mafia Wars has been available the game has undergone many changes. New items have been introduced with each expansion and on special holiday events. Many of these items have migrated to the Marketplace and may be purchased with Reward Points. Today’s post combined with the following 6 will present every item that is available in the Marketplace at this time and in one case the near future

For a very long time players were not able to change the class of their character in any way. If you started as a Maniac you were stuck with it. Zynga heard their player base and added the Class Change option recently.
Though many of the Stat Item purchases may seem appealing any player that is serious about leveling should only purchase the “+4 Skill Points” option and apply the points to Energy if you are an energy character or Stamina for a character based in that stat.
