Please get rid of recubes

I was wondering if you could remove recubes from the game. I have no luck with my recycle bin. No matter what wearables I put in -- things I have purchased from the cubit store or gotten from dehydrated cubes -- I always get the message "you need to put in something wearable" (that's probably paraphrased.) I will never be able to build a farm if all the seeds are purchased with recubes. Can you either delete recubes from the game or make seed options which can be purchased with cubits? I would greatly appreciate it.
Thank you for reading this suggestion.

One of the main purpose of the farm pack is to make obtaining recubes easier...

To start your farm and get your first recubes from crops buy a cheap (50 cubit) farm starter pack.
Anyone should be able to suggest what they want.
It makes no sense to get rid of them entirely at this point, now that the farm update is out. Not only does it not make sense, it's a little bit rude to suggest getting rid of them now after the devs worked hard to improve the system.
i doubt anyone got like 5 tractors
Recubes are gift cards/discounts, where Cubits are currency. Recubes can be used to purchase only specific things (decorative landscape items and farming items), where Cubits can be used to purchase ANYTHING (including the farming items). But, if you are purchasing the decorative landscape or farming items, Recubes are going to be much more efficient than Cubits.
Part of my problem with the recubes, is the way the recycle bin does not accept the wearables I put in there. Yes, I know they have to be purchased items, but now the bin won't take hats. The message on the bin needs to be altered to be more specific. In my opinion a hat IS a wearable item. A plain shirt that I can make is also a wearable item. I accept that this is not going to change. I just think it makes no sense. You said that "gift cards are only good at certain places". I choose not to buy those. When I send a gift card I send a VISA gift card which can be used anywhere.
Also, as I mentioned in a previous post, we have no way of knowing what the actual equivalent value of a recube is. If I go to a restaurant and purchase $25 meal, I get the same meal value regardless of whether I pay with their gift card or cash. I would like to know what the game developers consider the value of one recube.
I know I'm a little dense, but math is not my strong suit. And this is one thing I just don't understand. (But then I also don't understand why people announce that they are willing to spend 40k on pajamas that look exactly the same a the pink pants you can make yourself.) I personally believe that recubes are nonessential, but I accept that I will have to use them for farming. I appreciate all the responses I got here on the forum, and thank you all.
I think we can close this topic now, as I am never going to understand it.
Right now, not many people have a lot of recubes, but they want a TON of them. Thus, inflated price. I'm sure you'll be more accepting of recubes once the new system has been around for awhile. Things are still a little wonky right now XD
(Also the Pajamas thing is because they have a different look when you wear them. You get a bunny tail and you can hop.)
I made a post in the help forum, because I do not have an option to edit my comments after they are posted. See that post for more info.
But another way of purchasing farming items would be interesting. Perhaps with cubits, but pretty overpriced? Of course, that would cause things to be sold more and more lower than Cubic Store price.
So maybe this whole thing is a bad idea, I don't know.
Maybe you should have made a poll?
[seeds half the price of the crop, but I'll show an example using nothing but cubits in exchange for recube products]
Seeds
1000c:10rc (one tomato seed pack)
2000c:20rc (one potato seed pack)
4000c:40rc (one corn seed pack)
See the pattern? :)
This is the best way I can explain it, and what I value them at. I hoped this help clear a bit of confusion up. Of course, this is not the accurate price and never will be, but it is a common price within our community at the moment.
Just a tip: Don't buy from players right now. Just play the farming game simple and slow like I am doing. No need to rush! :)
(My personal opinion to the original subject is that recubes should be much more drastically changed or at worst removed.)
