Wow those are some amazing statistics, kind of neat to know but I guess some luck and experience is required to reach that level.

Would Kayla's Potion Shop be risky to AB in??, or is it alright?

[sircomflix]

The profit margin on the items aren't too large so I'd say it would be safer than BD or magic but more risky than something like books and pharmacy.

It'd be hard to reach anywhere close to those numbers now.. But its a good way to start.

in second stage of guide now, hopefully it works out

Thanks so much for this thread, I've used a lot of your info! 1 mil first day

[Icey Defeat]

I'd like to point out Pharmacy is not a great idea right now lol.

[chinapple]

I think the item prices drop a lot... especially the unbuyables. There's a huge discrepancy between the database's estimated profit vs. actual profit.

Are you selling them like if you were selling it to a reseller? Or as if you were a reseller?

[chinapple]

Well most of it is auto price on shop wizard, but when I manually price some stuff sometimes, the range of some items is quite large.
I remember an item had an estimated profit of 90k, but in actuality, shop wizard pricing was like ~40-50k.

It's much more noticeable with unbuyables and trading post though. Some items that are like 900k profit are being traded for 250k. So yeah.
I had some items for months before being able to trade them off for a really low price.

WOW your my hero I wouldnt know what to do if I had that much np

It's pretty risky from what I hear (depending on your refresh settings of course). I used to ab exclusively in magic and stamps (surprisingly never iced) but overall it's just not worth it. Much easier imo to ab in multiple smaller stores and sell through your store and not have to deal with as many hts on the tp.


nvm, thought you were talking about magic.

That's just because every item is extremely HTS now. The pricier an item is, the more HTS it'll probably be. Resellers get away with buying for so little because restockers and other resellers are desperate to get anything out of an item.

I have a feeling that so many people are ABing with this setup that the competition is killing the whole success of it. . .

[chinapple]

Yeah... =(
Everyone should stop ABing. Except for me.

BTW I restock so little everyday...
MAX 20 items only. Maybe like ~200k profit a day.
I go through a cycle of restock for 6 hours, banned for a day, repeat.

[Daywalker88]

Nah I don't mean it like that. I am just saying that the more this becomes used the less likely it will become that people will be able to pull 100m in a month no freezes.

I just tested these sets on the most agreesive that he posted, only got 2 items in 2.5 hours, something doesn't sound right about that.

Why are you getting banned so often? Why not just spread out the 6 hours the slightest bit and avoid a ban every day?

[chaoprokia]

what kind of setting will get u ban from restocking?

[sircomflix]

Low refresh rates with small room for variability makes it obvious.

[Dayzee]

I still refer back to this guide. Awesome data!

[Doginator]

Thats really cool, thx

[chaoprokia]

I don't think all that many people are pulling in 100m months regardless.
