Restock Blues

Wed Jun 30, 2004 8:10 am

*sigh* I give up. For the past few nights I've been clicking away, trying to catch a shop restock and get something good (generally chocolate, and clothing shops so I can snag an avatar at the same time), but for me it's utterly impossible. Everything goes great up untill the 'Kauvara's Magic Code' page.. I get the image loaded, peck at the three keys, and whadya know.. The item is sold out. EVERYTIME. I hate 56k. I hate the shops. I hate the code!! Who else out there has the restock blues?

i stopped with it when they released that code, that image that's supposed to show the code takes a while to load on my PC, and when it finally loads, i usually type something wrong, and then i lost the item...

I'd restock if I nkew what items were good for np. I got a cable modem a few months ago, and the speed is great, but every time I think something looks like it might sell well, I buy it for 300np only to find out it's sold on the Wiz for 20np.

Usually I just take a punt at rsing - If I pay too much for a cheap item, I usually make back my NP from items I find on trades or games.

But yeah, I have little to no clue about rsing, but I manage to make a bit of profit every now and again ^^;

image code is a pain... It some times takes a few minutes for me to load.

But I quite RSing since I get so shaky every time I see a good item... And of course I miss it :roll:

I am really bad at RSing but sometimes manage to get something worth a few K profit. I only try it if I'm on at a good time. It's a combination of me being too impatient to keep clicking & waiting, & too slow to get the really good stuff. Oh yeah and the code doesn't always want to load for me either :x

I hate the code too, it takes too long to load. :(

I must be an oddity. Ever since the code was introduced, I've actually round r/sing easier. I can now get hard to find items, whereas before I would miss out. I even managed to bag a Gruslen yesterday, which I would never have got before the code :D

Actually, the restock code is making things a lot easier for me. I'm getting a lot better items and more of them (but apparently not this morning). Also, it makes it hard for people to cheat with programs and such. I need to find another shop to restock in besides the chocolate factory though.

I used to restock every weekend or so to get my neopoints, but now I've kind of moved on to games. Are they still doing it so that all the items show up at the beginning of the restock? I didn't like that, couldn't get anything. :/ If they've changed it though, I might go back to restocking, the code doesn't bother me too much.

The code hasn't changed much for me. I'm not an avid RSer but when I do I still get a couple of good items. The code usually loads fine on my comp, I have a cable modem though :>

I thought it was just me having problems with the code taking awhile to load! On occasion, it even loads the code I had previously, and of course when I type it it's wrong.

Restocking... Im not really good at restocking. i always buy things that doesn't worth. ... Restockin gis difficult...to me though.

The code works fine for me, and I have a crappy 56k connection. I'm not really good at restocking either and only get good items every once in a while.

I haven't RSd in quite awhile. I have cable internet and the stupid code doesn't load right away for me even. It's been taking at least 15 seconds to load, and of course by then the item is gone. It's too frustrating to sit and waste my time so I just haven't tried.
