do you think that's true..? Then go to shops that ain't stalked by TNT staff... set to insane settings and see if you get frozen. If you do, it means TNT staff are stalking there

Im not saying tnt neglects shops completely. Im saying that some are actively watched while others are probably watched by a bot. I dont know, but im 100% sure you will get iced if you arent careful in magic.

so haggle time of .5-.7 is safe or not?
what about 1.0-1.4 OCR?

.5-.7 haggle is not safe.

but 1-1.4 ocr is god damn safe.

you should switch them around.

1.0-1.4 haggle
.5-.7 ocr

but then again..

if your total buy time is 1.5-2.1 I think its pretty legit

I think the key with magic is moderation. I just stop abing if I manage to nab one MP and then the next day I may autobuy in another shop. The day after if I return to magic I may not end up getting another mp if I do then I stop for abit longer and go in other shops which often give less profit.

It's also good to occasionally buy an item that will make you a loss, helps with being legit in my opinion.

Don't know if anyone agrees on this method, but so far it has worked for me.

I actually don't prefer to autobuy in magic o__O Some MPs just take too much time and effort to sell for a profit.

[goldensun]

Not even close.

What's the proper way of doing it then?

Where do you go then?

[ThaMan]

Most of the mps in magic are too hts anyways. I will go there just to look for a specific mp though, krawk mps actually restock multiple times a day, so its at least worth a shot.

Magic kinda falls along the lines of battle and defense magic. Youve got the hts crap thats apparently worth millions but no one will buy, then youve got TTear and Bgc.

Stamp is the place to be for large profits, and they are mostly ETS. But you have to be reasonable and use realistic settings.

[generalgsus]

I say don't bother - way too many people ABing there, so competition's really tough, and second, it's one of the riskiest shops to AB in, along with Battle Magic

I use to ab in stamps with a 15K + list and made a alright profit (occasional 100-150K stamp purchased). Never had a problem there and almost always got something.

However now that I ab in magic, the items I've been getting far outway what I had in stamp, although I have not sold any yet (letting them rot in SDP first)

[crazytaka]

iceland magic shop isn't even that profitable in the long run because you will end up being frozen AB safely in spooky foods and you are set to go!

[generalgsus]

Just a quick question anyway, for all you veteran ABers - how often do you guys hit the r99s? r95+s? It seems like whenever I AB in Magic I see absolutely nothing, so I stopped

I always see nothing in magic. Because I never go to magic. Abrosia on default settings will treat you right.
(by sending you to other shops after it sees a restock, and hitting shops that are not as freeze happy in general.)

If you want to see the same things everyone has already said in this thread, do it yourself and watch your account and any linked account go down in ice eventually.

For more general information on Abrosia, see the FAQ in my signature.
