Hi guys, I made this for a request from the forum. It's very detailed, yet simple. Feel free to PM me if you have any questions.

Download: neggery_profit_guide.zip (919 kB)
Contains 2 files, the guide in ISO PDF format, and an excel spreadsheet which will help you during the decision making process.

Please note, the list in the PDF file of negg prices is out of date, and should only be used for looking at the pretty pictures, and as a general guide. Please use the Excel file for decision making purposes.

    Nice guide. Shame it is only a small profit, and some neggs are.... well a bitch to sell. Or else you could make money so fast :)

    Great job! Yeah, putting that in one of the sims on the site and using the item database to keep the prices updated would equal great win.

    Great job! Yeah, putting that in one of the sims on the site and using the item database to keep the prices updated would equal great win.

    It would be really cool in theory, but unfortunately the item database's price data for some Neggs is... Off. For alot of the cheaper neggs, it consistently undervalues them, which can be a pain when it comes to profit calculations.

    Also, the demand for magical neggs simply is not there, the screenie of me selling the negg was faked, it's still in my shop :(.

    If I can make a magical negg in 15 minutes and make 15,000 profit, then what's stopping other people from saving 15k and making their own magical neggs cheaply?

    Oh and thanks for the positive comments (and rep) guys ^_^

    True, the item database prices are off in many cases. ah well. I think I might use this guide to help me with the ice neggs i get from the cliffhanger.

    Just an update, I finally sold the negg to some guy from El Salvador, so yeah, if you have the patience and don't like being illegit, then it's definitely possible to make a profit, just verry slowly.

    I have a negg gallery, so this could be very useful.
