restocking advice?

[ehoffy]

hey, guys!

 

so i've been playing neopets seriously for about a year now, and today i decided to try my hand at restocking. i read the TDN article about it, and i was just wondering if anyone else had any other advice or tips for me. i'm pretty clueless at this point.

My only real tip is be prepared to have to spend a LOT of neopoints on making your shop massive.

Good luck!

thanks! okay, but what do you mean by "massive?" i think the restocking guide suggested size ten...is that too small?

if you want your shop to be popular be sure to advertise. Sell stuff thats in demand like neggs and codestones.

Restocking is trial and error, so be prepared to fail. A lot. Although what to look for in each shop depends on which shop you're restocking in, so there are different tips for each shop. For example, in food shops, don't be fooled by items priced at 2.5k. Almost all of them are junk.

 

Another thing that helps is to "shrink" the screen so you can see the entire shop. To do this, hold down Ctrl and move the mouse cursor down. It takes time to get used to restocking with the screen like that, but it's definitely worth it to avoid having to waste time scrolling down.

oooooh, thanks for the tip about shrinking the screen! that's really useful. i think i'm going to start with books, because everyone seems to be of the opinion that it's the easiest thing to restock.
