How much items can you normally see in the Smugglers cove?

IN a day (24 hrs).

Also is the SAP or SuAP retired or do they only restock every 3 months now?

Neo release a certain number of items e.g. 20 SUAP's and they stock at completely random times, about once a week.

Everyone thaught the aisha..somthing (cant remember) stopped stocking ages ago and then one stocked yesterday, annother item stocked the day before as well, its not normail for an item to stock every day tho, i think there will probably be a hammer today or tomorrow

Woah, triple post.

Anyways, I've never seen anything in the cove, but I'm considering attempting to get a 200 dubloon coin and randomly checking. Now if I can just get a coin for a good price

And what happened to the apples i wonder.... the ones i've seen were 500 dubloons each....

Perhaps there were 120 folkss out there who felt they needed to buy them. Stranger things have happened.

As for how many items you see at the Cove:

Only once have I seen an item (not counting the Green Apples) in the cove, and I've been playing for two and a half years.

i have seen the cove stock 3 times (minus the green apples) up to now.
the first was a metal wand on my old account abt 2 year back. i got that one...then i missed a chia leap boots. recently i got a pirate peophin plushie. on all 3 occasions, i only saw 1 for stock.

Cove items? Lesse...

When the Cove first came out, I saw a Banana Sword my first try. Now, at the time I didn't think those items were worth the effort so I ignored it.

After I realized that the items were quite valuable, I stocked up on Dubloons.

From there, I managed to see, and get, an Earwax Chia, Aubergine Mace, Attack Meatball, Alien Aisha Scrambler, and an Attack Pea over a two year period.

Unfortunately, I can't prove it since the account that had all these items is now frozen (though it was not frozen for that reason, it was something completely different).

Every since I started my new account 3 months ago (below), I have only seen a Rotten Negg, which I missed. And I check like, every thirty minutes. :/


Also, to explain why you see apparent "retired" Cove items is because when an item is lost via glitch, discard, eating (via Skeith/Grarrl), or freeze, then the item is eventually replaced in the Cove. Of course, you have a better chance of scoring in the Neopian Lottery than seeing these old items. :)

Like Raygirl and Myname, I've only seen green apples there. And I have been playing Neo even before the Cove was released. Maybe I need to go there mre often...

Thu Jun 10, 2004 6:56 pm

well.. before they changed the cove so it would be stocked more often, i never saw anything... nothing at all, zip, zilch, nada..

and now, all i ever see are a bunch of stupid overpriced (extremely!) green apples.. oh well, it's not like i have the cash to actually buy anything from there anyways.. :)

Same here, a bargain at 500 dubloons! :wink:

Thu Jun 10, 2004 9:34 pm

A true bargain indeed! Although all the New Member trying to sell green apples for the price of a five hundred dubloon coin were pathetic.

If I had to hazard a guess, I'd say that the green apples were a *cough* present for anyone using an autobuyer for the cove.

At least, that's what I'd do if it were my site.
