Vaccinated Jedi Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 Please can someone tell me what this is? I've seen it mentioned twice now (once here and once offsite) and am now curious as to what it entails. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agreff Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 Reselling is a general term for buying an item (e.x. the book Cybunny Down) from the bookshop and reselling it in your own shop at a higher price. There are plenty of guides for people new to reselling on the internets, and many of them include which stores you can make a better profit from. BUT! You are not limited to just the local shops, if you have some time to spare you can also search the general term "paint brush" in the shop wizard and see if you can find a cheap paint brush or paint brush plushie that some unlucky Neopian has mispriced and sell it on the trading post to gain a profit! You can also browse the Trading Post to see if someone is willing to take a lot less than the normal price for an item and try to resell it to get a profit! tl;dr google "neopets reselling guide" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chanizilla Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 Reselling can mean a few things. It can be when you buy items that are Hard to Sell (HTS) and sell it at a higher price over time. It can also be when you 'restock' (or purchase) and item from the stores on neopets and sell it for a higher price. It can finally be when you 'snipe' (or find items very cheaply) in other user stores and sell it for a higher profit. There are 3 kinds of sniping. Shop wiz or Super Shop Wiz sniping, using the shop wizards you find items that are priced far below value (often unbuyable in shops) and sell them on the Trading post for a marginal or large profit. Auction Sniping, when you find cheap auctions that are for relatively unknown or well known items that go well below value and resell in trades or re-auctioning for a higher price. Trading Post Sniping, though frowned on and really hard to do, there are people who do make a good living doing this. Offering junk items on expensive lots, hoping that the other user is kind enough to just give it to them. And there you go! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaccinated Jedi Posted December 21, 2009 Author Share Posted December 21, 2009 o_O That sounds complicated. I think I'll stick to book-reading and adding bits and pieces to my gallery. lol Thanks for the reply, you two! ^^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
