Also guys, keep in mind that you have a tremendous advantage at night when you face UK and Australian restockers thanks to their higher latency rates*. There are drawbacks like less people but as long as there is someone to clear shop** for you, you'd still do better than day time.


*It'll take you longer to load pages because of distance. Possible solution: lower buy times to compensate?
**Clearing is when people buy junk items at a loss so the empty space presumably gets filled with a better item when the shop restocks.

Oh yeah I did that before Maybe... just maybe... I should clear the whole Merifoods and wait fer some draik eggs lol

[jtgrtw]

Heh time restrictions... I heard people who live in the same time zone as Neopets get more items too....sad for me. by any chance do you live in the same place as me? Singapore ?

yup ^^

The tech is to have multiple people going at it. Have one or two only going for the eggs (or any of the extremely high-end stuff) and the rest going for the chafe

wow in about 2 months of abing i only made 3mill =( i ab for around 8 hours a day with items that profit 2k or more and i just leave it on with a break every once in a while. do i need to be advanced to make as much as you guys?

[Boggart]

pretty much The best thing about advanced is being able to pick which shops to go in and how long you want to stay in them. And controlling your refresh rates allows you to gauge amount of time AB'ing vs. restock bans

Yeah, with advance, our refresh settings are much lower. I personally use 2.7-8.1. '

Quicker refresh rate means Abrosia catches the restock quicker and is able to get the profitable items quicker.

[lakerzfan270]

what do you recommend for haggle time?
is 600 milliseconds fine? i feel that its pretty fast yet not too fast to arouse suspicion

[Boggart]

much too fast >_<

[lakerzfan270]

so 0.6 is too fast?
0.8 fine or should i just make it 1 second?

this is abing tho in places like book and spooky food, but i want to try stamp

[Antivenin]

Wow. That's amazing. =O

How much do people get with the default setting, without advanced accounts? A ballpark figure?

[Dan]

More people need to be aware of success stories like this.

Pinned.

Cheers for keeping track of all this, good work.

Why don't you keep track of it and tell us?

[Antivenin]

I started using it yesterday. So I'll tell you, once I've used it for a while. Until then, does anyone have an idea?

[lakerzfan270]

Hate to burst your bubble, but that won't last long once August hits. And definitely not after august.

well it is what i am doing until then, and then my strategy will switch. but for now its fine

[Antivenin]

I ran it for 3 days, and my profit is 3k. =/ AB has bought a bunch of items, but they don't sell.

[edit]To be fair, if someone bought the items, then my profit would be about 3x the investment.

Quite an amazing find, thanks for this, I'm going to try it.

Edit: What do you mean by minimum profit 5000, then 2500? Are you basically saying 2500 is the best one?

If you have it set to 2500, it means you'll attempt to restock items of at least 2500 NP profit. More items bought, the more NP you make.

So I'm pretty sure he is saying that 2500 is the best one.

[Redemptionist]

2000 profit per item is also good to i get around 25 items per day

Wow smart one, I feel blessed being able to use this. To some degree...

[neoneo0505]

Thank you so much for posting this! I'll have to adjust (what I can, being a normal member) tomorrow to try to get close to your methods :3

[Nonygirl]

Alright, so I've been using everything except for the very fast refresh settings as I think I have some that I am very comfortable with, but I kept getting this error:

- Missed ____________: Refreshed too quickly, or trying to buy in same restock
- Missed ____________: Refreshed too quickly, or trying to buy in same restock

And it filled the page except for a few that I bought.

Did you used to get this a lot too? This is new to me o.O I don't know what causes it.

You are restock banned for the day. That's the error message when you try to buy more than 1 item during an igloo restock.

Oh ha, I don't know how I missed that. Thanks.

Still trying to figure out how to get more than 14 items in a day >.>
