If there's one thing I want to know is the prices of certain items. While we have list for Autobuyers that tell you what is worthwhile, I don't know prices of these items. Item X is a high priced item because of its rarity, but how much can I buy it from the mainshop? I might never see it at the shop, but it is interesting to see how the actual prices compare to the shop prices nonetheless. If none exists, how about a program that would aggregate the prices into seperate logfiles. Sort of like what an autobuyer does, minus the autobuying. I'm not asking for this to be made, although it seems cool to me. I'd just like to know how hard something like this would be to make.

P.S: I understand prices always change and so its unreasonable to keep an up-to-date list, but I assume a list would give a good indication as to the general value.

Well, Jirachi is a cute enough of a Pokemon, it sure as hell sucks considering how hard it is to obtain one. I'd take Mew over a Jirachi anyday. Hell, even a Celebi. And that damn thing is weak to fire.

Oh wait.

Well, the problem with keeping a list like that, is that some of the prices are just randomised. Sometimes one particular thing will be one price and maybe next restock, it 1000NPs higher or lower. You really can't predict in most cases. This is assuming I read you correct and you are talking about the price of an item that you buy directly from a main shop.

Jirachi isn't hard to obtain . . . unless you don't have a GCN and a GBA, GCN connector, and a pre-order disc for pokemon colosseum . . . nevermind x_x

Anywayz, I see. Yes you did read me correctly. My beef is that its ok if the prices are sorta randomized. That sort of figure isnt majorly different from a previous stock. I'm just saying, I want to know that item X which costs me 600,000 NPs at an auction or tradehouse only cost like 40,000 NPs in the mainshop or something. For instance a morphing potion at the tradepost is damn expensive, but I know they can be purchased at the magic shop. How much? I dunno. I need this kind of list to see if it is worth the effort to try and nab stuff from the MS or should I just get it from the post. Economics . . .

Morphing potions, are, if I remember correctly, between 10k (Low end, just basic color and popular pet) to 70k (Draik MPs). Thats all I know. Anything you RS from Magic that is a morphing potion is well worth it.

Wow . . . that is pretty cheap! I guess I have to lurk in in the shop all day to get a potion. But this is what I'm talking about. I look on the post and many morphing potions are well over 500k. Ah well.
