What kind of items would you consider particularly easy to sell or hard to sell?

I'm restocking primarily in the clothing shop today, and I seem to have kind of a hard time selling wearable items. So I just wanted to see if there's something that might be a little bit easier to sell.

    Well clothing is ETS/HTS considering the fact that some clothes are only for certain pets.
    What you may want to do would be to set your auto pricer at .7 or .8 if you want them to fly off the shelves.
    Usually if you keep the price high or maybe just a little below the lowest price on SW, they usually take a while to sell.
    But keep this in mind, they DO sell trust me.

    clothes are ETS if they're kacheek, xweetok, draik, krawk, (popular pets. Very HTS if they're skeith, gnorbu, buzz (fugly pets)

    There's a huge list, we can't give them all out (not beause we're selfishk, it would take hours)

    Don't call my Buzz fugly. Posted Image
    Anyways, I wouldn't call Draik and Krawk clothes ETS. Even though everyone wants them, they are still amongst the least common species due to the difficulty in getting them. The most common species are probably Kacheeks, Kougras, and Shoyrus.

    And yeah, the easiest items to sell are obviously PBs, SLM pieces, and codestones. If you're looking to restock, clothes typically sell faster than things like plushies and toys. Food items also sell at a decent rate.

    For me, ETS : Food, chocolate, medicine, codestones
    HTS : Clothing - especially species-specific items.

    I usually base my RS lists off ETS clothing items, food/bakery items etc. Now also i have made a few lists to reflect the growing need for faerie quest items too. Made a huge killing off torn fire gym socks just lately lol. But yeah anything to do with Kacheeks and the more popular pets you will find quite ETS. There are a few exceptions with toys, MP's/TP's as well these days. It's all about taking notice of what sells quickly on the Trade boards etc and basing your restocking off of that.

    Anything R90 with food items are usually ETS for me too. There are a lot of Gourmet/Kad feeders out there. All you need to do is advertise, advertise, advertise :)

    ETS would be transmogrification potions, SLM pieces, common weapons... Stuff that can be used :p

    HTS for me would be things that people don't use and have a lower demand of; for example, finding a plushie collector is hard, and the same goes for usuki, books, low end weapons, etc. I also consider MPs HTS just because noobs offer so low and it's hard to find the highest price...

    Yeah MP's tend to take a while to sell but if you have the patience (most of the time i dont lol) theyre not a bad investment. But like i said, you gotta have the patience..... :D

    When you advertise, is it usually on the shop boards?

    Transmogrification potions are ETS for you? I must be doing some bad marketing then, lol.
