I read all the books to my pets now while they are cheap. There is no knowing how high some of them might get and its easier to buy them and read them to my pets now... plus i did it a couple hours ago when prices were still low.

Thanks for the list, I checked which ones my pet didn't have yet, so I bought them.
Also inside the mind of a lupe isn't gonna be much higher, it's one of the prizes @ Altador daily.

Thanks for the info, updated the original post with the info you provided. In other news all of the books except that one are above 2500 NP, things are looking good

[Romy]

I bought a boatload of these books the instant i saw the post last night ^~^

Ima keep them in my SDB for a bajjilion years and hopefully sell them for a couple 100k sometime in the distant future.
I honestly just want to make more then the 40k i spent.

Updated the price on the original post. This update will show you how much the price has changed in the 24 hours since the original post. Some important prices to note are for Algebra, Kiko - Fu, Neopian Encyclopedia A - E, and Oopsy Daisy. The first two listed are in the recoil phase where the price is going down as everyone is trying to sell at once, while the latter two are at the plateauing phase. Keep an eye on these 4 items as the other books are likely to follow the same price trajectory. Noting the prices at which books seem to plateau (around 45K) and the prices they tend to go down to (35K - so far) will help you make better judgments on when to sell them or to keep them long term.

Keep in mind this is a limited sample size of 4 items out of the 38 that retired, so things might change, however I will update the original post as I see changes in the trend.

I'm very annoyed at fast Algebra rose in price. It was already 25000 by the time I saw this topic lol.

That`s why it was one of the first ones to hit the recoil phase. And why it`s important to closely watch it`s price. At least it wasn`t like the Kiko - Fu, which was already inflated even before I posted lol

I started buying up one of the books today. I spent about 30K per book, and got 101 books. The current lowest price on it is about 50K, so I'm already happy with my investment.
Also, since this hasn't been updated since March, I'm gonna go through and find the current prices on each and list them here.

The fact that you found a shop with them at 10 NP each and STILL didn't sell probably means nobody has ever wanted to buy those.

You don't know how long ago those were put in. It was still a good snag :3

I hit the same user list twice in a row refreshing for new prices and that popped up at the top on my second refresh. The whole shop was full of nothing but junk items all priced at 10Np, so I agree with this guy up here^ that it was a good snag.

[Futurama]

Thanks for updating the prices. I got plenty of the books before they really jumped up in price. Can't wait another 5-6 months to see these prices jumped up to almost near UB! That's a nice profit.

[Hydrange]

Oh wow, I thought they retired more books... well I am saving some of those books with outdated artwork, in case they want to retire a new batch.

Edit, I didn't see the prices were updated, thank you!

Really? I wonder how many junk item lots on the TP are actually worth more than they are now...
