What is the ideal number of shops to AB at a time? I've been ABing about an hour and a half so far starting from 8:30 est and I've been back and forth in Neopian Fresh Foods and Unis Clothing Shop having only successfully ABed 4 items. Are these shops just slow at restocking or should I try some place else? I have my settings to grab an item yielding at least a 2.5k profit so I'm not sure why I'm having this problem. I see people ABing like 40-100 items a day and it just blows my mind because my general settings seem to be the same but I'm not getting the same results. I ABed about 8 hrs yesterday and only got around 10 items not to mention my wait delay is between 3 and 8 seconds... ahh

My wait delay is 8 to 9 seconds and I still manage to get decent items. Understand that the higher the profit margin you set and the more rigorous your conditions are, the less items will fit those conditions. Also, depending on how new your account is, it may be unable to see items that are above certain rarities, which makes it even harder to realise the profit margin set. I would lower my profit margin if I were you.

Pick one shop and stick to it for a while. Try it out for about a week or so. That way you can get a real idea of which shops suit you and your schedule, instead of hopping between shops and potentially missing items.

Also, buying 10 items a day is almost definitely better than 40-100 items per day given the fact that to get 40-100 items profit needs to be either set low, or buy speeds are suspiciously quick, or the person is ABing for suspicious length of time. All those factors increase the risk associated with ABing and make 10 items seem like the better option- given they are decent profit items

PS. 8 hours per day is a bit excessive. Use the neotracker to find out which times are optimal to AB and design your cheating schedule around that
