Restocking 7 shops at once too much?

So, I'm wondering if I'm RSing too many shops at once? I usually have open the Booktastic Books, Magical Bookshop, Faerieland Bookshop, Moltaran Books all to restock my shop (I own a book shop). I also have Kauvara's Magic Shop, Collectable Card Shop, and the Neopian Post Office open, looking for some rare items to sell for large profit. Is RSing all 7 of these at once too many? If so, which should I drop?

I wouldn't say 7 is too many, but its too many if your in stamps/magic. You need to RF a lot more often there, so in 7 shops with 2 being RFed really often, your more likely to get banned have nothing to show for it. We weren't born to follow ♥

Anyway, I just started a mall for my guild, so I can't stop restocking my shop. Should I switch to something besides Books that would allow me to keep from having to stick to the Book shops so much? I want to keep RSing at the Magic shop and Post Office, despite the fact that I miss the items most of the time; every once in a while I'll catch one. But, I'd be willing to drop the card shop, simply because they're so HTS. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Need a book for your pet, or for a water faerie quest?

I totally agree with pip. For bookshops it's not too many, although even in the magical bookshop you won't be able to catch the really rare books. If you are trying to RS for your own shop, 7 is ok. If you are trying to make great profits by buying really rare items, you're RSing at way to many shops. ;)

Thats way too much. Unless if your going after massive 300-1k profit items or its 7 REALLY SLOW shops that people dont RS often at I guarantee you that you will probably never get an MP if refresh Magic w. 6 other shops. And your chances are VERY slim that you will get an UB Booktastic either. Yeah you might get some good profit books but thats ebcause they are newly priced. one 500k profit item = 1000 500NP profit ones. If I'm refreshing magic then I'm refreshing there and MAYBE one other shop. If I'm doing petpets I refresh at 2, and MAYBE 3 shops (if i'm feeling bold). and ocassionally I give 5-10 slow shops a swipe to see if theres anything good. I used to give an occassional refresh at faerie books but there are so few good profit items I let that shop go.. but even till today I keep books+booktastic on my bookmarks :D ------------------------------- See my new screenie petpage?

I got a book worth 300k yesterday, two high buyables, and so far, one high buyable today (been RSing for about.. 30 minutes). Do you have any tips then? Everyone keeps telling me that it's too much, but won't tell me what to do about it. [b]Edit: Okay, thanks. Sorry for getting antsy. :P Anyway, so maybe I should focus on books until I get my shop all the way full, then get maybe the Stamps and Magic shop open and that's all?[/b] ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Need a book for your pet, or for a water faerie quest?

I don't think it's too many. I RS at 10 or more shops on half price day (HPD). I catch some of the restocks and get really rare items too. I think shops restock depending on how many people are in there (I remember reading that somewhere) so HPD the shops are full of people which means the shop restocks quickly and the rares go quickly. After a few restocks I can generally put my tabs in the order that shops are restocking so that I am more likely to catch the restock right away. Just keep practicing and keep going back to the 2-3 shops that you want to get the most from. Just visit the others when you finish at your main 2-3 shops. With some practice you'll do better. ~ Mimi temps_bons graphics ~ http://www.neopets.com/~Mimi_Miaulement

In the bookstore I usually dont buy anything under 5k profit (unless if the other shops are seriously dead). And with all these new books they restock in bunches of 5-10 and its easy to grab a good amount. Anyway it depends on what type of profit you want to make. I mean the way you are going now you're grabbing all the smaller profit items and making a stable amount everyday right? I had a hard time learning not to grab all the 300-1k profit items .. but I came to realize that getting all these items that I barely ever see UBs, or even 50k+ items. Jw have you ever RS'd an MP w. this method ? (not including gnorbu, origin, green uni and orange koi) ------------------------------- See my new screenie petpage?

I also have that issue of buying items that will get me 500-100k profit, despite the fact that the time wasted probably makes me miss other items. Should I just start scoping for some of the rarer items, then just using the SW to restock the rest? ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Need a book for your pet, or for a water faerie quest?
