If you dont know, today is half price day. You can pretty much make a good profit on anything today.

So I have to have patience and wait for a underpriced item, say: A codestone for 2000, which I can flog for 3000.
Would just pressing refresh on the result page work? Or would I have to start multiple searches?


Refresh on the results page work - don't overdo it or you will be barred from searching (first time for 20-30 minutes, after that maybe even longer - heard people have been barred for 1 day also).

If you can handle Multiple searches it should work. But remember, to wiz-snipe you have to be really fast. If you are looking at multiple windows, by the time you find a bargain, go to that shop and try to buy that thing, it will most likely go.
Lots of people are wiz-sniping at a time. People also follow some techniques to gain the edge. Some of them are like putting in a maximum amount in searches to limit the results being displayed, do not load unnecessary images, not-loading ads, etc.. I am only playing for 6-7 months, others might give you a better idea of what other techniques are available.
Also you should remember that there are premium members around - who have super wiz - basically the same shop-wiz but those searches are not limited to a set of shops like the wiz. However, they are only allowed to search a certain number of times within a certain period, and so are generally very selective in their searches, but if someone among them is searching the same thing as you at the same time, I would say the odds against you are 25:1 (because there are 13 distinct lines - you get results from only one of the lines at a time in a wiz search).

Sorry to hear you missed half-price day, but thats not the end of the world. I also missed it this time, so I have bought whatever bargains I can find with whatever money I have. I will sell them at least a week from now, and I know I will make about 200-300 np profit on each of them. Anyway I have a slow connection, so patience is the key for me.

I just got ahold of some cheaper than usual items, and have sold them for 100NP more. (Just under the shop wizard average).

Guys, I have a question:
Would investing in Sticky Snowballs be a good idea? They are going for between 300-400 np, if you refresh, you can get 300-350 easy, and occasionly ~200. Are they a good thing to stock up on? I remember back during wars, they went for 800np+. And since inflation has kicked in, plus more users participating in wars, I would expect that price to be even higher. I already bought 102 of the snowballs, but I won't buy anymore if anyone thinks its a bad idea.

A war will inflate the prices of snowballs and other items like codestones and dubloons, but the question is, when will the next war be? If your willing to wait then its ok but if not maybe you should play games instead


I really should train myself to not get my hopes up with Neopets because I'll just end up falling harder on the ground... face first!

I already play games, so thats not an issue. :P

I think its more than worth the wait, as long as it does eventually pay out...so I think I'll keep buying more every day. Not a lot, I don't want to depleate my bank too much...but still some, every day.
