Random Questions - Need Help/Advice

Submitted by heartlessness_ on Tue, 01/09/2009 - 5:29pm
Okay I have a few questions I need help/advice with. Shop Link: http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=heartlessness_ 1.) I have a Luck shop and am working on having one of every buyable Luck item in my shop. I currently have: -Scratchcards (I don't sell fake ones) -Neocola Tokens -Stockings -Crackers -Goodie/Halloween/Birthday Bags -Bags of Broken Neopoints -Gift Box things I have all of the items in those categories except I am missing 3 crackers (am working on adding those in) Are those all the Luck items? Some people sell Booster Packs as Luck items, but I do not know what these do (if anyone knows, I'd love to hear (: ). Are there any others? 2.) Could I get feedback on my shop front (banners and ect.). I am not in a marketplace yet but I should probably make sure it is all good before I do reach one. (I know my image map doesn't have "scratchcards" for the desert one. I didn't have room and I *hope* that most people can figure it out. If you think it would be best to add it - then I will) 3.) How much is a Pepper Chia Pop? I want one of these very bad but I can't find any on the TP or in Auctions. All of the people who have them in their galleries say they are not for sale and I can't seem to find a price for them anywhere (which kind of scares me). Would I be better off trying to zap my chia into a Pepper one or what? It seems that even if I did have however much they cost, there isn't anyone who is willing to sell anyways. 4.) [random noobness] How do you go into Stealth mode on neo *lol* Sorry that is a lot of things for one thread, but I didn't see a need to make a bunch of threads.

~ May ~ Hi :) I'm neo-less here, since it's a public computer and I wouldn't DARE to log (specially since the person who usually uses this computer is *cough* a moron and prolly has every virus imaginable XD) so I can't check your shop BUT I do know that Stealth mode is a premmium feature and you change that on your account info, same place you change your password :) Edit: uh there might be another way to get it too, like on the portal, but I don't remember XD

If you have premium you can change to stealth mode right under the list of your neofriend in the portal. There's a little star that says click here to go into stealth mode.

I have no idea what the booster packs are, but I have also seen them in some luck shops. I found some very cute luck related items when it was part of my category, you could try adding them if you like :) Fortune Cookie (sell great!) Lucky Robots Foot Lucky Die Fake Lucky Cybunny Foot Good Luck Ankh 3 Leaf Clover 4 Leaf Clover Five Leaf Clover I like your banners alot, and how they link to each place, very cute :)

Oh and some other things I was thinking about adding, but never got around too... Tombola Coins (I think theres 3 buyable ones) Fluffy Dice (the 5 of them, from Dice a Roo? they are super cute and imagine they might sell well)

You could add oak wish stick, and cherry wish stick. The description says "these wish sticks bring good luck to the bearer" Ive seen people use it for luck shops before, not sure if they sell. You could add luck books- scratchcard secrets (sells well), and possibly the job coupon handbook , nerkmid mania, the Ultimate Guide to Lucky Charms, (theres more with luck in the title if you search jellyneo) With the neocola tokens you can add, fake neocola token on a string (which sell decently) Im not sure you would want to but Im sure theres more hts or reaching luck items you could add, like 2-3 nerkmid plushies, a couple items with "scratchcard wocky" in the title like Scratchcard Kiosk Wocky Plushie, or Scratchcard Wocky Poster, and theres more items, and more with "luck or unlucky" in the title you can find on JN like, Red Good Luck Packet Maybe use some items with "charm" in the title like fake kass charm, dubloon charm, etc (more on jellyneo) (Ive seen Duplicate Space Faerie Token Keyring included in this general grouping) Your category is also half jobs, so I assuming your adding those too? Some people who stock those also include the 3 ice cream machine coupons. Im not sure id recommend all of the items listed since it might be hts, so beyond the interest of completleness im not sure if it ll help your shop if it pushes good items to page 2

I don't have premium (and probably wouldn't use stealth anyways) but I always wondered how to get it - thanks for the replies. Thanks for the banner comment too! I was going to ask about whether to put the banners at the top or the bottom, but then I realized when people bought something they were taken to the top of the page anyways so they would still have easy acess to the navigation banner. I'll consider the items you all listed (: I'm kind of trying to just keep it to the specific items you can play with/win stuff off of, but I suppose more variety would be good too! I'm always open to new ideas. Thanks again! If anyone else has input, I'd still like to hear it! Oh and if you have any advice about the Chia situation, I still need some help/advice on that.

[center] As far as getting a fruit or veggie chia, your best bet is to go on the pound board and hunt for one there... I have a guacamole account (ahuacamolli), and I've gotten all of those pets through trades or gifts... one was a lab pet a friend gave me, one was a lab pet I traded for... a pink pet? The tomato and the lime I got recently just by creating cheaper pets for people. I traded a baby... nimmo or something like that for the tomato, and a mutant gelert for the lime, so I spent less than 1M on the two (600k for the baby pb and 345k for the gelert transmog). Way cheaper than trying to create the chia myself. Edit: Not a nimmo, it was a baby aisha. :O ------------------------------------------------------------------- [url=http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=raine_storme&misc]~~ Come visit my map shop ~~[/url] [/center]

If you're lucky and get a FFQ you could possibly paint a chia pepper for free.

Booster packs are just like crackers, except they give out collectable cards instead of toys. They don't sell very often, but they can be quite profitable, especially when someone buys more than one from you. One big seller I've found is the Pant Devil Attractor (what it does: if the pant devil strikes, he will take the PDA instead of one of your more valuable items). I wiz price and sell at least two dozen per week.

I would definitely check out the boards. I just traded my grape chia away using the pound board :)
