Sporkle syrup seems to be a bit of a b*tch (wait, are we allowed to cuss on neocodex, I never really noticed), to sell.

I get 7 offers a day from little newbies who are offering their life savings (of like 52k and two codestones) to cure their pets. Who actually buys sporkle syrup? o.O

Love to learn other people's experience with AB. I'm following those shops and making good profit, thank you for taking the time to post it

[Taraberra]

Ooo I <3 your statistics. This will definitely be helpful for me, especially seeing as how I've just started using AB today. :3

[RKO]

Your success inspired me, so I've been doing something similar.

Over the past three days, I lowered my profit minimum, Auto bought for about 3 hours each day and grabbed over 350 items.

Total Profit is currently over 1.5 million with 0 UB's restocked.

One question, do you all use the scheduler or just let the AB-er run?
If you use the scheduler, do you run it for 2 hr and pause or 1 hr and pause o.o

I used the scheduler a few times, but only when I am going to be away from home. In those cases I usually have it set on a high profit minimum and ABing for 1 hour then 2-3 hour brake.

If I'm at home then I don't use the scheduler and just monitor Abrosia and what it has restocked. If it gets something good, or reaches the item limit( 50) I stop it.

Thanks for replying. Just one last question. How long would you AB without breaks

thanks for the statistics! it really helps out a newbie like me!

I make sure I stop it before it hits one hour. That way I can have, usually, three 50-55 minute sessions per day.

In between sessions, I usually take 4-5 hour brakes.

I.E. Restock from 8:00 AM to 8:55 AM then Price items and brake.
Restock from 2:00 PM to 2:50 PM then Price items and brake.
Restock from 7:30 PM to 8:25 PM then Price items and brake.
With this strategy in the last 5 days I have made 2.4 mil.

Wow thanks for doing this, it's really interesting to read and should shut a lot of people up. That is, if they bother to read it.
+1 (:

i dont know what i do wrong...i AB for 3 hours a day, 3 days in a row, and i grab anywhere from 18-40 items

i would keep track of my earnings as well, but its obvious that i am doing something wrong haha

If you were directing this to me, which by quoting me I suppose you were, I was using a small profit minimum and Autobuying at the peak times of the day.

You aren't going to get 350 items in 9 hours with a high profit minimum, not possible.

Also, it depends on what shop you are in. If you AB in Spooky foods, icy foods, chocolate, toys or plushies, don't expect a ton of items. Those shops only stock a certain amount of profitable items and you might only be able to grab one a restock/ 3-5 an hour.

I don't want to reveal what shops I AB in,the less competition, the better.

[CyberDar]

Some great advice in here thank you, can't wait to be an Advanced Member so I can pick the shops I want to visit the most

[willy101]

thanks for posting your data.

is there a way i can see how much lowering your profit from 5000 to 2500 has benefited you graphically?

Wow thanks ! For me, sad case xD I get 1500 min profit and at most I get 6 items @.@

[onlyme]

Thanks a lot for this, it's very helpfull and confirms my resolution, to do it slowly but safe

[Zacharus]

Mmmm followed everything in the guide with an even lower min profit.
AB-ed for 3 days - 3 hours each
Best Day - 6 items
Worse Day - 2
Average - 4
Wonder what I'm doing wrong

[Sasha]

Pyrosyne, it's probably your connection. I have the same prob, low times and everything, and still the maximum number of items I get in a 3-hour ab session is 10-12.

[ShadowLink64]

It's incredible that I've never read this topic before. Nice statistics, and very organized.

Hmmm true @_@
But most times I don't even see the misses and my refresh rate is lower =\

[pabs123]

today i got 47 items in around 6-7 hours of abing...i think it must be your connection because my refresh rate is set to 8-9...

[weke]

There might be many people restocking at that time

[pabs123]

There might be many people restocking at that time

but if he's not even getting misses he's not even seeing any restock's at all, the problem isn't people getting the items before him, it's him not seeing items at all

[Zacharus]

Yeah =\ my Refresh Rate is 2.8 - 8.3 I think
