When Charity Corner comes around again, you'll have the opportunity to purge your safety deposit box, which has been a helpful event against my hoarding tendencies.  My brain doesn't like the idea of throwing out stuff that could be useful or valuable which leads to having thousands and thousands of items in the sdb.  I was able to donate 5,000 items over the last few charity corners without having a mental breakdown by using the price checker tool.  You've discovered by now that you can't dump the html source of all your items into the tool at once.  Here's some tips that helped me stay sane.
 go backwards - when you have 10, 20, or 50 pages worth of inventory, you're going to be doing a lot of cutting and pasting into the pricing tool, so it's important to not do it more than you have to.  If you start at the first page, any time you move an item to your inventory, an item from the second page moves up into the first page.  After a few items are moved, that first page will have changed enough that you'll have to cut and paste the html into the pricing tool again.  If you start on the last page and go backwards, all those items that you move only affect the pages you already processed. break it up into smaller bits - nobody has time to actually inspect 25 pages of items in one sitting.  Ideally, you'd do a page or two and walk away, but how do you remember where you left off?  Using categories like books or toys, for example, lets you break up the pages into smaller amounts.  If you only have 3 pages of gifts to cut and paste, it's a conquerable task.  Once you process a few categories, it may reduce your overall number of pages to something you're comfortable dealing with (backwards, of course). Go for easy victories early - you've probably acquired hundreds of healing potions or omelettes along the way.  Definitely deal with them first.  Donating or discarding 100 jellies doesn't reduce the number of items in a page, but it reduces the overall total, and that will make you feel good. I realize that this doesn't directly give you a total or show you what is the most valuable items in your hoard, but the process of cleaning the SDB will show you the valuable items as you go.  And once you've purged a few thousand things, those valuable items will be easier to find later.

The only petpetpet I ever attached was 

 
And when I was finaly able to attach it 1 week after (3 hours a day), I said to myself:  Never again!!!!! 
No more p3 for me 😑

This, I believe, could qualify for the ultimate #neopianworldproblem from what I've heard; you'd best get comfy, you're gonna be there a while yet!

My Orange Grundo (who I was planning on loaning out for the avatar) got changed into a yellow Lenny 😭 *sadwalks away*

Today I started the 30 day waiting period to get a Fire Blumaroo avatar! I thought I would get it by painting a neopet that already had a 30-day petpet attached, but didn't realize the requirement that the petpet have the word fire in it's species name, so I switched out the petpet! I am excited!!
Also got a golden evil coconut form coconut shy. 

Ugh! I totally feel everyone's pain. This avatar is so awesome.
DO WANT.

Still haven't received this avvie just yet. Random ones tend to be very frustrating. :angry: hehe.
Just got the fishing titanic squid, however, so I'm hoping maybe my luck will turn around with Buried Treasure lol.

Hello all! I've been playing neopets since I was 7 or 8 on an off, nearly 2 decades! I'm glad to be a part of this community to chat about Neopets with other neopians. When I was a kid my friends and I would crowd around the computer and play games, explore, try different foods, and do all sorts of stuff on Neopets together. It's been really comforting to return to it time and time again, at least for the advent calendar every year, but often for longer periods of time. I've been playing more dedicatedly for about 6 months now!
My biggest goals are:
Getting avatars Stamps (currently working on sea shells and faerieland) Looking forward to chatting with yall :)
 

As you reach out for the Legendary Chest, you can't help but feel that there's something special inside. Your heart beats a little faster as you lift open the lid and find yourself looking at a Aurrick vs Claymaker Stamp
 

Aurrick vs Claymaker Stamp

HOLY MOLY. It finally happened!!!
Also got lent MSPP and BGC for free this past week so I'm pretty pleased with that!
