What the ... (Shop Wizard - related)

Fri Jul 07, 2006 9:14 am

I'm currently filling up my SDB using Project Packrat from http://avatar.starried.net/checklist.php. I have to buy a lot of items, so I always refresh a lot when I buy them, to save nps, even if it's only a little, because lots of littles make a lot. Now, when I refresh at the shop wizard, I get THIS. Can anyone explain, because I'm truly stumped. o_O

There is another topic currently talking about strange glitches.

But in your instance you have been taken to the Marketplace (mega stores), it happens occasionally when you refresh at the Wiz.

I get that when I access the page from my history/adress bar dropdown list. rather odd.

if you're wondering, that's the page for the actual neopian market. if you click the face of the soup faerie in the shops top bar dealie, you can get to an overview of it. it lists all of the shops in Neopia Central, in order of size. there are markets for other worlds as well, for example: http://www.neopets.com/halloween/hall_market.phtml

Just a little plug for premium here...

I have to say, using the SSW is totally worth the 7.99 per month... not to mention all the other perks.

Just think... not having to refresh the wiz fifteen times in hopes of seeing a better deal! That used to be one of my biggest pet peeves- you might refresh the wiz a dozen times, and still only see two of the alphabet sections, and never know if something was cheaper elsewhere.

or you might see something in one alphabet section, with prices listed like 100 np, 1800 np, 1800 np, 1840 np, 1841 np... and you're like, wow, good deal, I need to act on this RIGHT NOW!!!! then you buy it, refresh again and find out that on all of the OTHER alphabet sections they are selling for 75 np. not such a good deal after all.

and if you are pricing something to put into your shop, you will find that the infinitely-usable "pricing only" (never affects whether you will be shop wiz banned) is great if you're restocking.

Ok well that's my two cents' worth....
