Anyone feel the same way?

For the past 8 sessions (4 days, 2 session per day), I've been RS-ing 1-2 items per session, down from the usual 10+. I don't even miss them because it don't even appear for abrosia to buy.

I got 10 items during one run yesterday Maybe try lowering your settings?

I would say it's pretty low. Even my profit margin is extremely low. Any lower and I'll get RS banned very often.

Luck probably?

not noticing anything too different here. try a different time of the day maybe, I tend to do better when there are more people on neo

Which time zone does Neopets follow btw?

[Kyouma]

California Time, the west coast.
Not too sure on the precise name of the time zone though.

And I thought restocks were pretty slow too, but turns out, it was just my internet being slow + restocking in not-so-profitable locations

it does seem like they're kinda running slow but i also feel like there have been more people on lately so more competition?

I've always assumed that neopets time = california time.

I feel the competition is as usual. Not sure about that but I'm still getting my items successfully. Just that there are hardly any restocks for me to try buying.

things are really slow for me im not getting anything

[mysterybat]

battle magic and defence magic are always full =_= and usually no profit from there....

magic is probably the shop with the fastest restocks

[Applepi]

Idk chocolate has been slow for me too. i just assumed it was more competition but maybe you're right about there just being less restocks too.

[khan]

Wow! So it wasn't only me! c:

I also think that restocks has been slow, lately..

[CmndrNim]

I'm lucky then >> All I got to do is grab my 5 items from the AAA and I'm good xD

[annddd]

Neopets TNT set the restock time.....it's a vicious scheme......

[Drakonid]

started an hour and a half ago, got 27 items so far.

[whitey]

I've also found this. If I AB when there are more players online then I get more items. I am in a pretty useless timezone, a time when there is approx 13k players on at any one time and there there are very few restocks

[waggyshaggy]

I'm just a newbie here on the forum, but it does seem awfully slow...

[Kyouma]

More people = more items being bought at any time.
This means that the more non-profitable items are cleared out quicker, and so profitable items appear more often.
Of course, this also means more competition for the items though.

Igloo restocking seems easier lately though.

[iQaLex]

i lowered settings to 400 np profit and works decent i must say

[Kyouma]

Igloo restocking seems easier lately though.

With igloo buying, almost everything in there is profitable (cept altador wall paint, friggen god), so there's no need to clear space. You should actually have more competition and less items during rush times.
Most probably you've had a lucky streak, cause to me it seems the same as before.

I'm usually watching the AB activity on my computer, mostly 'cause I don't have a life, and when I notice a lack of stock, or have just stocked quite nicely out of a shop, I figure it's time to switch shops. Just a thought.
