Abandoned attic is annoying

[Secre]

Is this annoying anyone else - figuring out what time the next restock should be but then it doesn't happen and as the next one could be at 1:30 NST it's been at least half an hour since the last restock.

 

Very annoying

 

EDIT: Well, it restoked - I just didnt' get anything. But it's an improvement.

[Spritzie]

It is annoying. I've now seen it stock twice. When I refreshed when it stocked a minute ago, there was roughly 7 items. And of course, they POOF.

[Ro-]

Never seen it restock. Is there a pattern?

[Spritzie]

They say it's supposed to restock every 8 minutes. (Keywords, supposed to) But it can skip restocks. Like before the last one, it hadn't restocked for over 30 minutes.

[Secre]

It's every 7 minutes, and it does seem to stick by the pattern when it bothers to restock!

[Masaryk]

The Attic has a pattern of every 7 minutes, but the restock happens at 53 seconds past the minute, instead of actually at the beginning of the minute. I find I have to refresh at 54 seconds, though, to actually get see anything. Even when frantically clicking, I'm still not able to get anything.

[Spritzie]

Thank you. I didn't realize it was 7. Or that it's at 53 seconds past. That will help me a lot.

Thanks I didn't realise it was 53 seconds, I've just been frantically refreshing at the minute in question! That makes it a lot easier.

I've given up for the day. I only have an hour and a half left of work. I'll pick it up again tomorrow morning.

It's annoying to me because I can't access it yet :laughingsmiley: Good luck to all in the meantime :yes:

[Flameheart]

I can access it but I just haven't gotten anything THERE yet. Probably because I visit it with the same frequency of the Igloo Garage Sale, which also, when I get there, either has junk or nothing there at all.

I've only seen items twice too. Haven't snagged anything. My problem is, if I watch it, I get bored when it doesn't restock for a while and go do something and come back to see that it restocked. :laughingsmiley: At least that's what happened yesterday...

 

Watching the neoboards really helps. There's one specifically for timekeeping. They tell you the time of the last restock, if there was a restock the last time it could restock, and the time of the next restock. When there's a restock, there's list of the items too. When there are 24 pages, a new topic usually opens, and there's a link to the new topic from the old topic.

 

For instance

Last RS @ 7:20:53

Pending @ 7:27:53

 

Oh and yes, it is very annoying. It just restocked - so I've seen items 3 times. I tried to get 2 things, no luck. I can't tell what I'm going for; I just see there are items and click on the first thing I see. :laughingsmiley:

 

EDIT:

The new board is located here.

I haven't managed to get anything yet but I honestly haven't tried much. I'm hoping after a while it's popularity will die down and everyone won't be trying at once.

I agree. So far, every time I go to the attic, it just says "Oops! - We just ran out of items."

 

So, I'll be waiting! :woot:

[hrtbrk]

I'd try restocking the launch of Altador Cup. Maybe there will be less people.

[Mimii]

I am going to hang out for a bit there to see if I have anymore luck. I got an item that is.. insanely rare, to say the least, last time.

[IrishLiz]

I just caught another RS, and I still can't get anything, even when there are only 12,000 people online. :grrr:

[avat0r]

Does anyone know a guide to the attic with a list of the items sold there? (or is it still too early for a reliable guide?)

[Angeló]

I access the attic on my side and was never able to see it restock ... :sad02: I don't think I'll ever be able to get anything from it until I move to the USA or some place with broadband internet loool :sad01_anim:

If you keep an eye on the neopets boards there is a thread with all the timings and all of the items and prices that have been sold in each restock. I would link but I can't be bothered to go find it again!!! It's in the 'help' section of the boards though and is regularly updated so is near the top.

Using the board, I was able to max out today.

I put the link to the board in my 6:36 post yesterday. The last page will have a link to the next board if it's gotten full.

Wow. Somebody just offered me a million neopoints for something I bought for a few thousand, max, in the attic. Sick!

Wow! What did you buy? :woot:

I am hoping that I will be able to buy something from the attic soon, but as always I'm too lazy to be able to refresh my page every 7/8 minutes. Someday I'll get lucky!

I bought a Kass Toy Box. The final price was 1.35. I'm definitely addicted, now. I think it's easier in the morning, which is when I'm doing it mostly.
