Shop
Shops are the main vocal point of where Neopoints are spent on Neopets. Through them, users can buy Food, Toys, and many other items to help them raise their Neopet. Their are two types of Shops: those controlled by The Neopets Team, or those that are owned by Neopets users.
TNT Shops
TNT shops are usually focused on a certain type of object or characteristic such as high priced, rare items, chocolate, or weapons. With a TNT shop, prices are set at a base level, and can be haggled for less, and the base price rarely changes. There are exceptions to the rule, such as Krawk Island Nippers and the Hidden Tower.
User Shops
Users of Neopets can buy their own shop, where they can resell items they have bought and collected. User shops are more competitive, as they usually aim to make a profit while selling their merchandise. As in real life, the goal of dedicated sellers is to buy items for a low price (either at other player shops or at the game-run shops) and sell them for a higher price to gain a profit. A users shop could contain any range and quality of items, and if the item another user is looking for isn't at a TNT controlled store, searching through user shops is the only way they can find what they are looking for.
No item in a user shop can cost above 99,999 NP, forcing users to place items about that amount into the Trading Post and Auction House.
Buying items at the main Neopian shops in order to resell them is called restocking (since it involves waiting until the shop restocks) and can be very profitable for a user with luck and a fast internet connection.
