Ha, I just run NeonAP to price things at approximately 0.85.

You would be surprised at just how fast items fly off the shop shelves.

[kiddX]

85% is on the low end. I set it to 94% and even then things sell fast. Make sure you're not so low that people are just reselling off of you

[Boggart]

well generally if it's in a shop at ~90% there's not much to resell it for.

I set mine to 90% btw, if anyone cares.

Hahaha I LOVE when this happens. Some joker buys 10-20 of my items to resell in their shops and I make 500k. Then I rs the same item from the main shops and undercut them

[Daryl]

woa.. i set it to 101% just to maintain my shop big for now.. only had few items

idk how to work the Neon AP the right way

ill have like 80 items in the shop, and i price them each 5 or so times to get an accurate price, and i always price to .75 or i wont get anything to sell

it will underprice some things by like 5-10 thousand, and others will be overpriced by 5-10 thousand...so i just see whats not selling and keep lowering until its gone

also, anyone who uses smart haggle, what percentage do you use

well see, a lot of the rarer items (that still aren't bought up much) have really wild ranges in their prices. You refresh the listing, first shop is 15k, next is 20k, then a bunch at 50k. Refresh again, first shop is 12k, next three are 13k, etc. So I just undercut on those just to be safe.

Plus what Scot said. I'm making more money constantly selling stuff fairly low than the person who's buying and reselling is,.

Also, I'm sure it's been answered somewhere in this topic but I looked through the original post and the first page and couldn't find an answer and I don't really feel like looking through 100 odd pages

Is it possible to log into ABrosia using the same Neocodex account on two different computers? (These are two different IPs, two different computers in two different locations).

I'm not sure if u can do that but even if u can, u probably alert TNT for trying to restock and doing something else at the same thing

[kiddX]

Do you mean same Neopets account and same Neocodex account or just same Neocodex account?

If you mean only Neocodex account I think I have done that. Same neopets account I have not done and that would not make too much sense.

[Boggart]

Yes you can. I use my laptop and my computer to AB sometimes (because my computer sometimes crashes, but I have to be beside my computer when I AB in magic or Royal P) and my laptop has a proxy (which simulate a different IP)

So in short, yes.

[manophear]

Yes, I meant two different Neopets accounts on two different computers, but using the same Neocodex account .

Thanks for the heads-up.

So i'll probably buy a 3 or 6 month subscription soon. Just xferring money.
What are the biggest benefits, besides choosing your own shops.
Lowering the times will just you get frozen.

[Elindoril]

Lowering the times will just you get frozen.

No they won't, people get away easily with low times.

Other than that, no great benefits other than "Advanced" being in front of your Member.

booo my 6 yr old account just got iced, such a shame!!! Probably should have had a side account to store some of the items...

I just signed up for a couple new accounts and am waiting until i have 100k before starting to use ambrosia again. in the meantime, does anyone have any suggestions for me on how to not get iced this time around? i only used it a couple of hours a day, and usually only got a couple of items. maybe i set my profit margin too high? or because I only used it for 3 shops? I didn't change any other settings either.

thoughts?

[Elindoril]

thoughts?

Don't use crazy numbers when running it, be intelligent when using it, and be patient.

Also, please tell me where you see it being called Ambrosia because I know for a fact that's not the name of the program.

oops my bad, i meant abrosia.
like i said i didn't change any settings besides the profit margin (>25000) and the shops to buy from (magic, sutek's scrolls, and post office). I didn't think this was unreasonable, since when i manually restocked that was my criteria.
and i used smart haggle at 5.2% and didn't auto price.

so my question is, is there anything else that I should be watching out for?

How much did you run this?

[Waser Lave]

I still maintain that the main reason people get iced is their buy speed, if you're located near or in the US you should use a higher delay than somebody located further away because of the difference in the speed to the server. And to be safer you could keep your total buy speed to around that which you're able to do manually.

[divinefish]

How much did you run this?

about 3-4 hours a day, 5 days a week

why higher delay if in the US? i would think server connection speed would be faster.

good point about the total buy speed being around manual speed though. I'll keep that in mind, thanks!!

Really? Our locations affect how fast we reach the server? So where's neopet server located at?

California.

[Waser Lave]

California.

And New York now since Viacom bought them out.

Yeah, it probably takes me about twice as long to load a page as somebody in the US solely because of the distance I am from the server.

[manophear]

Ha, I'm in Canada (53rd degree, so I'm not close to the border).

[moosejuice]

I just used this program for the first time. Great job. I really appreciate it.

[MasterJunpei]

so i want to use the useragent setting but don't want to use a proxy so I can still make it look like i'm using mozilla without being slowed down by a proxy. is there anyway i could just make it use the localhost as the proxy server?
