what avatar in particular are we talking about?

If you actually cared, you could probably work it out, since there's only one avatar that is available seasonally in August.

Ooo that is quite interesting. I'm guessing it will spike again this August. Time to stock up. :D

I usually stock 1 GCFYP for every 3 I buy. Then I make a profit now, and a profit in August. Make sure to get orange juice to sell with it.

I'm guessing gourmet cooking for your pet book. Dunno how he sold it at that price though...


June and July saw the prices soar from 90k ish to 250k and then drop down to 150k before another spike at the very start of august. Considering how few people got it when the avatar was solved in 09 this year was a big profit. :)

The gourmet item sold for 700k... Makes me think I should start holding the items instead of selling them to resellers =O

And some friends bought the book for over 200k, but I didn't wanted to waste my Np
But I ended up buying that book for about 40k in a shop, just right before August ended.

And on-topic. My best Ab has been an potato potion.

I never use resellers. I rather have 40 items in my trades and get full price for them a week to a month later.

You probably wait for your stocks to reach the 45-60 range, too.

We patient ones win in the end.

How often do you pay out?

Maybe 1-3 times a year?

Um... nothing worth more than 100K. Isn't it risky to get UBs?

It depends on your settings, but usually it's better to keep a low profile.
And I've heard that TNT monitors some high end Ub's from shops like 2, 9, 10, 56, etc.

I find that it's better to get hundreds of items that are under 100k than get one of them once in a while.

I've never ABed but when I RS my best thing was a Krawk MP, I think.
Unless you count cove items RSes too.

My best buy is now 'Pretty Purple Princess Negg', second is 'BLT Croissant', and third would be the 'Happy Anniversary Negg'. I love the Foods Shop.

What'd you get from cove?

Anything there will give a millionaire profit, at least within time.
The disadvantage is that it almost never happens and that one would need a lot of doubloons.
I wonder at what price the Grapes of Wrath stocked for.

I know every cove item is a profit :p. I was asking what they specifically got, if they don't mind sharing that here. Also, I keep 300 dubloons in my inventory always, and check the smugglers cove hourly.

That makes me nervous about using abs, but I guess have to take some risks to get the good stuff.

Stick to the small shops unless you know what you're doing.

If you wanna go for high profit items, draik eggs are better imo compared to mps. Of course, remember to check merifood before trying to ab there.

Since the ZDAP all I've gotten have been pretty crappy. Some gourmet cooking for your pet but other than that not much. Lots of stupid things from Neopian Furniture for some reason. My Abrosia loves that shop for some reason. For ever 10 times I AB there I only get to AB in Magical Bookshop once.

If you don't like that feature of abrosia, create your own shop lists.
I use personal lists because I've never restocked legitly on most of the shops abrosia uses, and I don't wanna cause suspicion with my fellows in neopets.
