Yea only people striving for book club would probably get the expensive books.

Thanks to KQ, there are alot of 1NP books out there that boost your int so.......

[sircomflix]

I do books exclusively now and I have it priced 5% below the lowest price it can find. I run the shop autopricer every night to make sure I'm continually the lowest. I usually average around 50 in stock with about 40 books coming in and 40 books being sold everyday. Once you have a lot, there's always going to be that 1 person who drops 200k on your shop alone.

damn son u sound rich as hell... it must be ur advanced membership

whats ur orc and refresh rates?

[BEEEEWRRYY]

I was actually going to make a topic about that but I found this one haha. Having madd trouble selling stuff. Mainly the dresses and plushies. Guess the quests have a pretty good effect on the purchases.

[Acheron]

Plushies are a nightmare to sell! Even worse than books since they do nothing for your pet and are just collectors item. >_<

[Fultoa]

Sometimes, coding can cause items to be hard to see and buy, and books at the moment are almost useless, because Faerie Quests are gone at the moment and Cliffhanger is much better to get Intelligence up.

[Barophobia]

Cliffhanger. Hmm. My shell got banned cause I got ambitious and let it ran the whole night through.

Other than that, it was nice staring at my pet's intelligence (about 594) before it got frozen hahaha

[Acheron]

Wow, I gotta give cliffhanger a try. Is 1 hour per day good to go?

[Barophobia]

I guess so? I mostly stick to about 50 odd games now. Since my accounts a week old, don't wanna risk it.

[Mishelle]

I've noticed when I put hts items in my shop they sit there for a long time. But when I stick ets items in my shop and price them low my hts items get bought too. I suggest sniping some codestones and stocking those because they'll lure more people into your shop and maybe they'll look around.

This board has restored my faith in humanity....or rather internet humanity?

I will be very upfront with you.
I came on this board to see someone get abused for asking that question. Very of sadistic me, but hey it's part of human nature.
I thought I might derive some pleasure seeing people call you various crude four letter body parts. Anyways that's besides the point.

I have to say I am ever so shocked.
This question has been asked numerous times and the answers on the board have generally been somewhat sarcastic remarks like
"Yeah, have you tried putting them in your shop?", "Let me teach you a little thing called waiting", and the "What a desperate loserish attempt to accumulate post count".
There is also the occasional "#&^$(&#%^*($^W*%^$ you (insert profanity)"
*Note: From what I've seen the extra profanity at the end is generally omitted but occasionally included if the person's rage could not be alleviated with just one curse..

Anyway scrolling through the posts....I am beyond amazed at how clean the boards on.
Not just profanity, Sarcastic remarks are also no where to be seen.....
Since when did the internet become so hospitable.

In short I think laraboots, deserves some repping for what she did today. She showed the good side of the internet and revealed that even in the mist of all this darkness there is a beam of light. (Author unknown) (I'm pretty sure I jacked that from somewhere, so to avoid plagerizing i included a parenthetical citation)

You must have missed Sweeney's thread.

[bruce]

clothes are even worse than plushies and books
at least plushies and books won't even deflate that fast
for clothes,it is like holding a time bomb
it can deflate any moment

[Mishelle]

I can't stand clothes they take foreverrr to sell. I can't believe TNT has drug this plot along this long. I miss faerie quests.

Lol i saw it.....

That's why I was surprised to see that he was no where to be seen.........

whats the super shop wizard?

[Turtleboy]

whats the super shop wizard?

The super shop wizard is a feature provided to those who have neopets premium
Basically, instead of searching a certain group of users for your item - it'll do a whole net search and give you the absolute lowest prices on the market as of that moment.

However amazing this may seem, MANY items are banned from search.

Wow thats gay. What items are banned? codestones and such? I was actually considering getting premium for the avvie and SSW....

How is that gay? As money hungry as TNT are, even they know how freaking retarded it would be being able to search TP's and lab maps on the SSW.

(As far as I know those are the only items you can't search on there which answers your question.)

How bout paying money to use a service with conditions. Premium ain't even cheap.

And while they're at it they should also make premium users have special battledome abilities and items, access to premium-only avatars and they should be able to play games 5 times a day instead of 3. YEAH!

Only a small part of Neo's income is from premium. Having no conditions would pretty much turn it into a P2P game which would mean few to no little kids would play.

Touchy.

I don't get it. How is searching lab maps that economy breaking? And their game already went to the dogs when they introduced NC and the mass adverts before every game.

Oh wait, no. The economy broke when people started ABing and SSing. Sorry.

[Dichromate]

To ensure the continuity of our beloved Neopets, I propose Codex should invent an ad-clicker that actively clicks ads every X seconds.

No, not really.
On topic : I was under the impression that Neo's income is mostly from NC customization things and ads. Do I err?

It's not to do with its effect on the economy (which obviously there would be one), but its effect on the user base.

Edit: Eh, forget it.
