I would think it's a secondary account, especiaaly with the Dari kougra.

Just one question.......
Why do they have a piece of a lab map in their auctions for 10mill?
I don't think that they will get a bid. :P
I know it's possible to earn alot in a day, you've gotta play your cards right.
Since my cards all say dial up, I can't play them in the correct order.

Making 1.3 million in 3 days is doable.

In less than a day I've amounted to 3/4's of a mil - that's through games, RSing and RE's. It's not so hard once you get past the total you set for yourself.

Incidentally, my first goal ends up being 150k, second is 300k. Once I'm past those two goals, the sky is the limit ;)

It would be much different if you were trading him a ton of junk items for tons of nps. But, I see nothing wrong with someone buying things from your shop--if you had no prior connection with that person's account and the things you sold were close to market value.

And, 1.3 million in 3 days is not impossible to do. I have made a million in a weekend before--by reselling easy to sells. Not every weekend and not even most weekends. But, at least a few. In fact, I made about 700K last Saturday. Most of it was pure luck because someone was leaving Neopets and priced everything she had at 1000 nps--including her rainbow neggs. :D


I agree that there shouldn't be a problem with someone buying things from your shop. Whether the person is being truthful when they say they've earned 1.3 that quickly is another matter. It does sound like someone who knows the site. My only question is why would they use a second account for sniping, etc. - you're not allowed to rs on other accounts, you can't even see anything over, what, an R90 for 3 months?

It's a shame we all have to worry that someone else may or may not be doing something wrong and if we are in any way involved (buying/selling items or even being given something) then we're frozen for what that other person did! It's too draconian for my taste.

As far as IP addresses being different, that doesn't seem to enter into the equation. I've known people who lived in different cities or even different countries and were all frozen for "multi-accounting", when there is no way they could possibly all own the accounts involved - they don't have the same IP! But those accounts are almost never unfrozen no matter how hard you try.

1.3 Million in 3 days is pretty hard to believe but has a slgiht chance.

If that person is hardcore and plays Neopets like 24hs or so. High chance. All the games in Neopets add up to around half a million even if u dun do well in them. Restocking and making profits of reselling or Auctions would greatly increase his income.

Esp Restocking. You may find a lab maps or even picked up a PB somewhere. Major adding income. I'll say unless he is hardcore. Nothing is impossible. ;)

Anyway, back to topic. The dude is using a 2nd account. Darigan pet? Wow. Pet transfer... If it was his Primary. darn he got lucky at the pound.

that much is 3 days is possible-you just need to be a 1337 restocker or get lucky on some RE's... ive been playing neopets for almost three years now and the most ive ever had is 500k-though my total earnings minus expences probably total near 2 or 3 million :roflol:

Personally, I wouldn't worry about it, though I can see why you kinda panicked.

Tue Mar 29, 2005 4:32 pm

How do you know that this person did have 1.3mil?

Tue Mar 29, 2005 6:41 pm

1) this person could be lying, did you check their bank account?
2) this could be a second account filled with transferred np from an old account
3) I can't for the life of me imagine why you're freaking out. Have you done anything wrong? No. You just put things in your shop, everyone does it. Just because a scammer (assuming he is a scammer which is debatable) buys things from you doesn't mean anything. I'm sure that out of the infinite number of people that have bought random junk from my shop at least one has been frozen, it means squat. If they started freezing everyone who sold things to someone who was frozen there would be no more neopets [/angry Nomi rant]

After reading everything this is definate proof I as usual am just paranoid... So i guess my account is safe and eveything, thanks all :)
