I downloaded this yesterday and ive probably made over 500k, but in unsold items. haha.

He's had for a day and has made more money then me.

Maybe if people bought anything from my shop I'd have some more dough, but those stamps are still collecting dust.

That's why you should only restock easily sellable items.

[Elindoril]

I don't decide what shop I go to, I don't have a choice what I restock, and since the manual lists are bugged right now, those don't help me either.

[ShadowLink64]

What do you mean?

Well, without a doubt, it's probably the Abrosia users cleaning out the shops of profitable items at the moment.

Abrosia doesn't seem to give a shit about spaces in item lists:

Here's the Item Database for the items I'm talking about

My profit margin was set to 1500 and Abrosia still bought the shitty -500 np profit melon.

*put on bug tracker*

[Rikku]

I have been at it for a while now and still fine. My setting are very conservative however. I go through several shops when I let it run and I spend less than an hour in each one.. ONly let run for a few hours at a time, and my times are set to be alot slower then the default settings... Even though i only make like 70k at a time it's all good.

[LeoOzinN]

But then I would risk getting stuck in the crappy shops... the "manual lists" I'm using are straight from the database so I'm not losing out on any potential items either.

when i put it, the shop still the same O-O

[Cory]

Hmm, you think?

I've not really done a good job tracking my profit since I've started using Abrosia but it seems, not taking anything away from your program, that PadoraAB was quite a bit more profitable. That may just be an impression I received from the larger amounts of product it bought however and not necessarily the most valuable.

Also, I was browsing the database and it seems like there are several shops that don't have any profitable items in them, assuming anything over 5k profit , is this because the shop is just complete shit or because they haven't been adequately logged? If the later, how do we go about logging those shops, as of now there is no reason to restock in many of the shops.

[Hydrogen]

It could be a combination of both. There are many items we don't have knowledge about in our database. To get those items in our database, someone needs to restock in the shop. However, since there is no good reason to do so, its unlikely that we'll get all items. I think it should be okay so long as we have a lot of people running Abrosia. New members don't get to choose their shop and so this will likely help us out in finding items we wouldn't have otherwise found.

We haven't even begun our advertising campaign (waiting until school starts) but we usually have around 20 users pricing items at any given time. That's pretty good. Just imagine how much we will have once we start advertising. I'm also expecting the items database to be quite popular as well once we start our legit site.

Why haven't you begun the advertising campaign? Wouldn't it make more sense for that to be something that is continually happening through out the year? Multitasking is key.

Been kinda busy at work to be honest . Spending four hours in commute every day only leaves you with so much energy and time when you get home . You're absolutely right though. We'll start soon .

Seems like you have already priced over 1,500 items. Just running Abrosia helps us out since Abrosia prices items when it isn't RSing .

This has got to be one of the coolest features in this program. How no one is really "leaching" programs. Just by using it you're helping the community out. Hopefully the database can be used for a lot more then just a autobuyer though.

[LeoOzinN]

ahhhhhhhhh... that's amazing

Definitely. It really just has to do with thinking of a good model that has incentives for all involved parties. We have plans to link up the items database to the trading post application that noit is working on among some other things. If you have any ideas, feel free to send them our way .

[LeoOzinN]

but and who refresh the price of TP?

i will sleep, bye...

Bingo 15m item feel like a loser with 12k items read and top 10 on the list Glad I can help ya guys out!

You picked up a 15m item? Nice.

[jcrdude]

I somehow managed to get "Lair of the Tuskaninny"... but I never told ABrosia to restock in shop 7... I'm not complaining (because of the huge profit)... I just think that's really bizarre... unless I picked it up from the Garage Sale? In that case I KNOW I got a monster profit

[ShadowLink64]

You may have received that item from the Igloo Garage Sale, since it is in the Igloo list.

Tell your friends about this program by the way, please. Word has already gotten to DarkZtar without us even making a peep officially about it anywhere else yet, lol.

[jcrdude]

I've been telling all my online friends... my IRL friends aren't as neo-obsessive as I am ><

O rly?

PM me a link please.

[ShadowLink64]

Done.

These are the main priority updates I want to make in the next version which will, in my opinion, push the program over the top and give it "super awesome" status.

- Break cycles or a scheduler of some sort to simulate breaks and stuff.
- Bank profits (in other words, a "only keep x NP on hand maximum" option)
- Fixing the manual lists disregarding the spaces in item names.
- It not retrieving from the shop till/pricing the shop successfully. I may not get this one fixed right away since it seems like a weird error.

Other really nice things to include later on are:
- Dan's many suggestions.
- Automatic faerie quester that will tackle those faerie quests as they appear during pricing. Using an idea that Laser Wave gave to me, you will be able to specify what type of quests you want to do (and how much to spend on them!) and ones you just want to dispel. For example, Earth Faerie quests supposedly suck majorly whereas the other ones are not too bad.

What about the minor bug where it will only stock 1 of each item?

Not usually an issue but if you happen to get more than 1 of an item it would be nice if they all ended up in the shop

Maybe this could be solved with an auto-quickstocker?

That way EVERYTHING (including RE drops) will DEFINITELY end up in shop/SDB/whatever

[ShadowLink64]

It already uses quick stock. Right now the procedure just goes through each radio button row to see if the item was in our "bought" list, and if it is, it will check it either SDB or shop. It seems to be malfunctioning though.

[jcrdude]

Only slightly

I guess my "quickstock everything" option is really only for those of us that only care nominally about the account itself
