Yea, I agree with cards. When my shop was tiny (sorry!) they were the only things that sold well. I didn't mark them up much back then - maybe 100 nps each or so. I was always told that my sales would be much better once I reached size 100 and I found it to be true. Stock just 1 of each item until you are pretty large, like 200 or so. The more individual items you stock, the more people will find you in a search. When it comes to shops, bigger is definitely better. And until you are main market size, you also have to keep pretty low prices. Even now (size 300) most of my items are priced lowest on SSW when I put them in there. If I didn't do that (price lowest), I wouldn't sell very many. Growing your shop seems like a huge undertaking, but we all did it one little step at a time. It gets easier as you grow because your daily profit is higher. Good luck! :) ~ Love books? Please visit my bookshop. :) http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=lolooma

You need to price your shop better for one thing. Another thing is to find a way to get your shop exposed cause if youre inflating your items then you def wont be making sales via SW. so posting your link around the shop ads board may be a good method. As for upgrading your shop size you just need to find another source for now. What i do is my daily sales i use my shop til profit to restock items i've sold. With the extra i buy stocks. Now my profit continues to grow and my shop stays full. Whenever the stock goes up in the market i sell and use that to upgrade and restock my shop. So far i've invested about 1 mil total into my shop starting off and i made that all back and have upgrading about 20 sizes since then in about 3 weeks of malling. http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=g3nu1n3r3v0lt&misc Quarter brick Half a brick Whole brick (AYYY)
