easy-to-restock and profitable items?

What items are restockable, affordable, and turn a profit? Anybody have any advice? I sell books sometimes when I can get them, and I do okay with them, but I was wondering if there were other items that are easy to get and good to sell?

Well, thanks to the halloween goodie bags, chocolates are shot for the next few months. So stay away from the chocolate shop.
I recommend books as the place to start restocking if you're new. But you'll have to do some research into which ones sell quickly, and then price them. Watch the shop through a few reloads to get the hang of which ones are the first to go.

If you have about 50k to boot, and I mean 50k b/c with restocking if you don't know what's hot or not, then you will be taking a big gamble, but if you can EASILY boot 50k start with the book shop, then what I do, is hit the Music Shop, and ALL The petpet sellers, b/c I mean I have seen some REALLY good deals there.

if you're looking for a safe buy and general BE point-marginal profit-esque buys then I'd say The Bakery isn't too bad. Although since a few months ago when the restocking are every 2 minutes thing happened most products with profit attacged to their names were thrown back a good 3-4k, theres still profits to be gained.
As with all restocking newcomers(or old comers going to a new shop), you watch before you do. By watching you'll develop a good sense of what is good and what is bad(The faster it goes, the better the profits, usually). Restocking doesn't have any big super secret to it--it's all timing and Internet Connection. So don't fret if everyone but you seem to be making these amazing 100k profits every time they restock(because there probably extravagating or have been sitting infront of the computer for hundreds of hours waiting for that Freezing Potion to appear :-P)
You'll get better as time passes, It's an aquired art.

That's cool. I've just been buying the cheap 300-400np books that sell for about 900 or 1000, because I figure that's safe and easy. *shrugs* I made about 10k in a day doing this though, which for me is a lot.
