So I have AAA enabled, and just missed a 20m item from it :o .... I've never gotten a single item from AAA, probably 0/50 now. What is the rate at which you get items? and do you have settings that help you do so? Is AAA more efficient than main shop alone? Early thanks for sharing!

Hello. My settings are on the default. I usually buy 5 items from the attic each day. Maybe if you set the Minimum Profit option a bit lower, you would have less competition. Good luck.

I like the way you think. Rep for you.

People are always aiming for the million NP item... I don't wanna waste time browsing boards and hawking crap on a site I begrudgingly play to make spare cash, give me the 25k attic item any day of the week. Posted Image

I ended up finally snagging something, and it says it took 9000ms to buy it. is this normal? My "general refresh rate" is 8s... does this mean that item was lying there for 9s after abrosia saw it, and luckily no one else took it in that 9 seconds? seems way to slow..

It always has a high buy time like that. I don't know how it works.

I read before that the high buy times are a result of the buy time + refresh time. I don't really know how to calculate it though, my settings for abrosia is very very risky but my main shop buy times are around 1800ms. Maybe I'm too far away from the servers or something. :unsure:

Almost Abandoned Attic, AAA, is only accessible when your account is 36months+ old. I believe it stocks r80 to r99 items at its estimated price (when you view the item in your inventory).

My highest profit from attic was a 1.5m item but I sold it to a collector for 800k. No one seems to want to buy it anyway, so I might as well sell cheaper. xD

in program settings for abrosia, there are 3 tabs for shopping, "main shops", "igloo", "attic" -- go to the attic one, very intuitive.

"The attic is only available for users with an account that is at least 3 years old."
In your previous post you also realized that your account needed to be at least 3 years old to shop at the AAA didn't you? o:

Well no :V Like Rainie said, it's a shop for Cool Kidz and Old Accounts Only Keep Out No Newbies Allowed, heheh.

I haven't been able to snag anything out of there, sadly :(

I remember snagging an Island Draik Egg from there once. It was AWESOME.

But yeah...with Abrosia...I just leave it on the default settings.

I end up getting enough profit for the day. Note, it's nothing HUGE, but I don't care about making millions in seconds :3

Just have patience...it will pay off

Are the default settings for advanced members the same as regular member's? Mine (regular member) are 8 second general refresh and 3-5s attic

I usually get 5 items a day, even not AB'ing it's fairly easy to grab stuff if you open up a timer. It's probably my best income source and where I snag the most interesting items...usually HTS though.

If you submit a ticket they will tell you what the birthday was, so long as you can answer some questions about the account. :)

This is slightly unrelated but while this topic is here - I think last week on the PC, some people were talking about the AAA, and one of them went, "I usually stay away from the AAA because it's full of ABers," to which someone else replied, "Really? Are ABers still plaguing the site?"

made me think of codex, abrosia, and how it was broken but then was fixed to work in the AAA. :)
