Neopets accounts can occasionally face freezing for various reasons. Whether it’s due to a security concern or a perceived violation of Neopets’ terms, the process of unfreezing an account can be challenging. This comprehensive guide aims to assist you in navigating the steps to recover your frozen Neopets account.
1. Understanding Your Account:
Gather all relevant details about your account, such as your username, email addresses associated with the account, birthdate, and any old passwords you may have used.
Provide detailed information in the form, adhering to the character limits:
Explain Your Case: Clearly state why you believe your account should be returned, utilizing the maximum 64,000 characters. Include all pertinent details without sounding repetitive or whiny.
Previously Used Magic Words: Share old passwords but exclude the current one.
Email Addresses: List all email addresses previously associated with the account.
Birthdate: Ensure accuracy, especially if you used a fake birthdate.
4. Account Verification:
Supply additional information to aid in account verification:
Neofriends: List both close and casual acquaintances, and specify VIPs.
Neocash Purchases: Detail NC card numbers and reference numbers.
Rare Item Codes: Mention any rare item codes redeemed.
Warnings Received: Provide information on warnings received.
Pets History: List pets created, abandoned, or transferred.
5. Items, Abilities, and More:
Include detailed information about:

6. Attachment:
Take advantage of the file attachment option (max 10 files, total under 25 MB) to support your case with screenshots or relevant documents.
7. Secure with a PIN:
Ensure account security by setting and saving a Personal Identification Number (PIN) to prevent unauthorized changes.
8. Submit the Form:
Submit the completed form and await further instructions.
9. Exercise Patience:
Recognize that the account recovery process can take time. Be patient while waiting for a response from Neopets Support.
10. Monitor Ticket Status:
Regularly check the status of your ticket through the Neopets Help Centre to stay informed about any updates.
11. Respond to Support:
If Neopets Support requests additional information, respond promptly within the specified timeframe. Avoid submitting new tickets for the same issue.
12. Prove Your Innocence:
If you believe your freezing was unjust, provide thorough explanations and any evidence supporting your innocence. Review patterns of behavior that might have triggered the freeze.
13. Maintain Politeness:
Maintain a professional and polite tone when communicating with Neopets Support. Remember that they are there to assist you.
Remember, a combination of patience, cooperation, and thorough information can significantly increase your chances of successfully recovering your Neopets account. Best of luck!
To start, gourmet foods are any food item with a rarity between 90-100, so anything above or below those indices do not count as gourmet. These foods are sold all over Neopia and are some of rarest items on the whole site. If your pet eats enough of these foods, they’ll make it into the Gourmet Club Hall of Fame!
Things to know before you start gourmet clubbing:
This is an extremely expensive hobby. *shivers in me timbers*
Trophies are awarded to your pet and thus are found on their lookup, not your UL; gourmet status remains even if the pet switches owners or is sent to the pound.
Retired gourmet foods are given new rarities (r180) and will not award gourmet points when eaten.
r100s are glitched and are not visible to players in NPC shops, even when they have restocked; the Wheel of Extravagance is the only known method of obtaining them.
Species with allergies are not recommended gourmet pets because of dietary barriers, but if a sick pet doesn’t bother you, proceed.
The “Dying” hunger status is the recommended level to keep a gourmet pet because of how quickly the status level drops between “Starving” and “Dying” (~80 mins.).
Some gourmet foods have other purposes, i.e. Draik Eggs hatching into Draiks, increasing market value.
Kadoaties at the Kadoatery can request gourmet foods r90-95, which can impact market value.
The Almost Abandoned Attic (accts 36mos+ can shop) is your best friend; check for gourmet deals daily (r90-99 only)
Grarrls and Skeiths all-consuming behavior does not serve as an unfair advantage over other species, as only food items count towards the club.
The aquatic restaurant kelp. serves fancy, expensive foods, but leftovers have a rarity index of r101 and therefore do not count as gourmet foods.
Highly recommend using JellyNeo’s Gourmet Foods Checklist (https://items.jellyneo.net/tools/gourmet-checklist/) as the Club’s log displays images of the food eaten without names.

1,423 Active Gourmet Foods If you’d like to feed your pet all the gourmet foods available, I’d suggest having at least 500M-1B neopoints at the ready.
Newly Added Foods
Foods include release date and official shop of sale.
The Great Chocolate Sweepstakes (Y4/2002 Sponsor Event)
Although these foods were once part of a sponsorship, they are now coded to restock at a few of the NPC shops. (Note: r100s are currently glitched and are not visible to players even when they do restock.) If there is a seller with these foods… be prepared to spend buko bucks.
Choco Spray r100 Chocolate Factory
Chococherry Blumaroo Ears r100 Chocolate Factory
Chocolate Gum r100 Chocolate Factory
Chocolate Lipstick r100 Chocolate Factory
Chocolate Peanuts With Peas r100 Chocolate Factory
These neggs were once handed out randomly by the easter Cybunny through a random event that has since retired; the neggs are now coded to restock in the Chocolate Factory. Note: r100s are currently glitched and are not visible to players upon restock.
You are more than welcome to spend your NP however you like, but if you’d like to try to win some gourmet foods, here’s a list of the places you’ll need to go and the foods you can win there. (Not included: Key Quest-retired game; prizes included neggs and gadgads.)
Battledome – Requires well-trained BD pet + equipment.
Battleground of the Obelisk – Requires participation in battleground war; these are consolation prizes, so your team must lose in order to be awarded one of these prizes.
Anchor Management – Fire the cannon at the giant squid off the coast of Krawk Island.
Forgotten Shore – Requires completed map. All items can be found in a “Discovered Treasure Chest” from the shore; Draik Eggs can be found on the shore or in a chest.
Snow Faerie Quest – Cost varies; requires completion of a quest for Taelia. Very large prize pool includes r50-r90 in 5 different categories.
Apple Bobbing – Pluck a prize from the water-logged apple barrel. (Caution: Your pet may lose HP or an inventory item, contract Blurred Vision, or become depressed.)
Grave Danger – requires at least one attached petpet.
Test Your Strength – 100NP/game. Requires score between 51 and 60 (“Strong” rating).
For legacy purposes, here are all the retired and/or converted gourmet foods. Eating these foods will no longer reward gourmet points. However, if these foods were consumed in their prime, they’re essentially bonus points for that pet!

When TNT decides to free up some room on the server, they delete some of the old, abandoned accounts. The users call this the purge. When an account is deleted, the account name and the names of the pets that were on the account are up for grabs. People use this to create wonderful pet and user names that weren’t available before.
The purge is not an official site event; aside from the occasional email to inactive users (“Hey! Your account has been inactive and will be placed on the purge list if you don’t log in”) and brief mentions in the Editorial, TNT never acknowledges the purge at all. When it starts, there will be no news announcement, so the only way to know if the purge has begun is watching names.
#2: Will (account name) be purged?
The Terms and Conditions state that an account must be inactive for at least eighteen months for it to purge. However, in the purges we’ve seen, the actual limit seems to be at least two years (24 months), possibly up to three years (36 months) of inactivity. At minimum, the account must be 24 months old, and it has to say “Last Spotted: A long, long time ago.” When an account says that, it means the user hasn’t logged on to it for at least a year. So, “Last spotted: a long, long time ago” is NOT enough to say for sure if the account will purge. It’s a good idea to look at the age of the pets and try to figure out when the owner last logged in.
Some other things that might disqualify an account from purging: –Pets with wearables: So far, no account with customized pets has purged. However, this might change for the new purge; while the accounts were probably too active (under ~5 years inactivity) for the 2010 and 2012 purges, when the new purge rolls around, some of these accounts will have been inactive for a very long time, so they will probably purge. We’ll see. –Neocash Though nothing with wearables has purged, TNT might be especially reluctant to purge paid items from the site.
#3: Why did my account get skipped?
Since a year is shorter than the required 24 months, there is no way to tell if the user has been inactive for the full 24 months. 24 months old is also probably too young for an account to purge; for it to purge, the owner would have to have left it the day they made it. Usually, the accounts that purge are 40 months or older, though there have been younger ones.
Also, sometimes long-abandoned accounts still don’t purge. Sometimes it’s because they have too much activity (painted pets, avatars, customization, high scores) but most of the time it’s because the purge doesn’t feel like deleting the account yet. There is a good chance the account may still be purged—more on that later—so don’t lose hope.
#4: What order does the purge go in?
The purge deletes account names (not pet names) in this order:
0123456789, ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ, _
In other words: numbers, alphabet, underscores.
Accounts beginning with numbers are deleted first; then the accounts beginning with A, then B, etc, then accounts beginning with underscores. This works within the account names as well. For example, if the purge is in the “cookie” accounts, it would delete in this order:
First, they find existing accounts ahead of where the purge is, and post the links on the board. These are called “markers”. When people check these links later and find that some have been deleted, they know the purge has been there recently. To check if an account has been deleted, use the keyquest case link:
Do NOT use the searchbar. Frozen accounts do not show up in the search. Always use this link. If you want to contribute markers to the marker board, use this link.
We used to mark accounts with the userlookup link (//www.neopets.com/userlookup.phtml?user=), but this link now requires a captcha regardless of whether or not the user exists, so it can no longer be used to mark the purge.
#6: When do I start trying to purge a name?
Say you want a name on the account “cookie_monster”. To get a good idea of when to stalk this name, you need to find some markers of your own. To find these markers, type in lots of usernames leading up to cookie_monster and try to find accounts that exist, such as cookie_8, cookie_9, cookie_boy, cookie_girl…and also closer markers such as cookie_man, cookie_mice, cookie_mine and cookie_men. Try to keep the markers as general as possible; you will find lots of cookie_good but not much cookie_luscious or cookie_macadamia.
When you’ve found enough markers (maybe ten is good), refresh on the keyquest link (//www.neopets.com/keyquest/collector_case.phtml?viewUser=). When cookie_mice or so starts to purge, it’s time to start trying to create the pet.
Protip: If there are any purge names you especially care about, it would be handy to look up markers for their accounts ahead of time. Looking up markers while the purge is active wastes valuable time and can easily make you miss these names.
#7: How do I purge a name?
Most good names are recreated in mere miliseconds, so you have to be very fast and very lucky. There are four ways to recreate a name that has been deleted:
Type in the name you want to create. Then, when the markers close to your name purge, begin clicking the Create button as rapidly as you can. Some people like to refresh their markers from time to time; others stay and click the pets for thirty minutes or an hour straight. Do not click the Check Availability button; by the time it says the pet is available to create, someone will already have created it.
NOTE: You cannot create names under three letters in regular create-a-pet. For that, use the Space Adoption Center or Draik Eggs.
2. Space Adoption Center (Create-A-Grundo) – [here]
Pretty simple. Fill in the name of the Grundo, choose the color and gender, then press Adopt. It takes you to a page that says “Error: Sorry, that name has already been taken. Please try again!” Keep refreshing there until you succeed in creating the pet.
Grundo Create is one of two place you can create two-letter and one-letter names. Some people use it for everything they try to create, and say it’s easier. You should experiment to see which creation method you like best.
Exactly like Grundo Create. Go to the Draik Nest with a Draik Egg, fill in the name of the Draik, and refresh on the page where it says the name is taken. This is the easiest way to make your RN/RW an Ice Draik. There isn’t any way to specify the gender of a hatched Draik.
NOTE: Draiks can be created with less than three letters in their name; a (very expensive) test has confirmed this.
If you really want to break your bank, you can create your RN/RW from a Krawk petpet. The writer of this guide has never tested it, but theoretically you should be able to create a purged name as a Krawk. If anyone wants to test creating a Krawk with less than three letters in its name FOR SCIENCE!, please mail.
#8: What was the last account purged?
For the answer to this, you should go to the marker board. There’s always link to it in the first post of the chat board; you can also find it by going to the Other Worlds Neoboard, which is here.
The people on the marker board are tracking the purge. To find the last account purged, simply look at the most recent post. Please look back at the last few posts on the marker board BEFORE asking what the most recent purge is. And please don’t ask questions on the marker board; that’s what the chat board is for.
#9: When will the purge get to ______ accounts?
If it’s within the same letter as where the purge is right now, probably within a day or two. If it’s several letters away, you’re looking at several days. Any closer than that (say the purge is at “candy” and you want to get to “cindy”) is very unpredictable. The purge has a habit of skipping over whole sections of accounts, so it could be half a day or it could be half an hour.
Please don’t ask this on the chat board—they get people asking that every five seconds. It gets bothersome after a while, and there’s no definite answer anyway. And definitely do not ask on the marker board.
#10: Is there a list of names that might purge?
No. Everybody has their own list and (mostly) doesn’t share it. It’s your own responsibility to look up names on your own time, whether these are names you want to keep or names you think would retrade well. The bigger your list, the more you’ll know about what’s coming up. The more you know about what’s coming up, the more names you’ll be able to try for and hopefully catch. Knowledge is absolutely power. Experienced purgers usually have at least a thousand names on their lists. Looking up at least two hundred is recommended.
There are a few ways of making a purge list: 1. List: A simple list with pet name and username, in a word processor or handwritten. 2. Bookmarks: You make a bookmark in your browser for each account on the keyquest page. It’s very easy to check on these, but it’s difficult to list hundreds of usernames. There are ways to bulk add bookmarks if you want to use your resources. 3. Spreadsheet file: One column for names, one column for the username those names are on. When you’re done looking up names, sort alphabetically by username, and your purge list will be in the right order. This is my personal favorite method. You can even highlight your most important names!
Generally, lists are private, because the purge is a competition and your advantage depends on your list. But some people will post the names that are coming up on the board for everyone to see. This is called “outing” names. Usually they do it when people are talking too much about a certain pet—so if you’re stalking a pet, keep quiet about it, or else it might be outed. Saying things like “Is anybody stalking the Red Eyrie on a G account?” count as hinting and will probably get your name outed. So no hints, okay?
#11: Why do people get annoyed when I mention a name I’m stalking?
There may be many other people who are also looking to get the same name, and by announcing it publicly you are effectively increasing the competition! Please don’t do this.
#12: Ong, my name was skipped and it won’t purge forever!!!!
Your name has two more chances of purging. It’s going to be okay.
The first chance you have is Snailbot. The purge isn’t one unified process deleting accounts strictly in order—it splits up the task of deletion between a few different workers (otherwise known as multithreading). The purge trackers organize the programs like this:
Cheetahbot: This program deletes accounts ahead of all the others. It’s the fastest, and the one the marker chat is tracking. A habit of leaping ahead when you least expect it has earned Cheetahbot the additional nickname of Ninjabot. Be very well prepared for your names, because Ninjabot will get the jump on you if you aren’t.
Snailbot: This program picks up Cheetah’s leftovers. It’s the slowest program. If Cheetah has passed over your name, there is still hope that Snail will pick it up. Snail is usually around forty-five minutes behind Cheetah. To stalk an account in hopes that Snail will purge it, just keep watching your markers and ignore the current progress of the purge. But if the accounts near the one you’re stalking purged two hours ago…you should probably move on.
There is a third bot called Pigbot or Dogbot. It’s slower than Cheetah, but faster than Snail. Pigbot/Dogbot usually lags after Cheetah by about fifteen minutes. You should watch for this too.
Please don’t ask the chat board (and please please please don’t ask the marker board) where Pigbot/Dogbot and Snailbot are. Nobody knows for sure. Think about how hard it is for them to track Pig and Snail: they would have to know which accounts Cheetah purged the first time around, and then they would have to check them all over again. All while trying to keep track of where Cheetah is, which is a mind-bogglingly difficult task by itself since Cheetah skips so much. The best solution is for you to simply keep an eye on your own markers and wait.
The second chance you have is the next round of the purge. The 2010 purge went all the way down to X, then snapped all the way back to the # and A accounts. It did this twice, so there were three rounds total. However, the 2012 purge only had one round, so we can’t be sure that a second round will even happen with future purges. In any case, it usually takes a few weeks for the first round to finish, so you’ll have to wait.
If the purge has stopped and your name still hasn’t purged, you can either:
1. Keep stalking it every day—sometimes purges start up again weeks after they seem to have stopped. No really, it happened. Many tears were shed when people missed names.
2. Or, wait until the next purge
#13: Do frozen accounts purge?
Yes, many frozen accounts have purged. But they might be less likely because there’s no way to know how long ago the owner logged in: could have been a month ago and could have been four years ago.
#14: How do I see how old a frozen account is?
There used to be a simple way of finding account age via a link, but that link was removed. We can now only approximate the age of the account. 1. Start to send a transfer to the account (WARNING: DO NOT COMPLETE THE TRANSFER). When you get to the pet exchange screen, it says “If accepted, it will also count as (user)’s 4th User-to-User Transfers for this month.” That would mean that user has four transfers, so their account is at least 72 months old. Accounts with only one transfer are at most 23 months old, so they very likely will not purge.
2. For a more precise meter of purgeability, you can try to judge by the ages of the pets. See Question #16 for how to find the pets on a frozen account, then check the pets’ petpages to see how old they are.
#15: How do I find what account a frozen pet is on?
Go to its petpage (www.neopets.com/~Petname) and look for the username. If it’s a Gnorbu, Korbat, Poogle, Techo, or Tuskaninny, you won’t be able to find the username anywhere on the page. Instead, mouse over the black referral bar at the top of the page. It will say the username there. If the page says “Error: Argh, there is no template file!” that means the pet is a Lutari. When Lutaris were created, they were not given a default petpage. That means that for older Lutaris there’s no way to see what account they are on, despite the fact that Lutaris have been given a default petpage recently. You’ll just have to keep an eye on it.
#16: How do I see the pets on a frozen account?
There are two methods:
1. The Battledome: Go to the battledome and make sure your Neopet is ready to fight (full HP and not sick). Click Continue. Select 2-Player and click Continue. Select Send Challenge and click Continue. Enter the username of the frozen account under Username and click Find Pets. If the user did not disable Battledome challenges, it will show that user’s pets. If a message appears saying “The receiving user is not accepting BD challenges”, you’ll have to use Method #2.
2. User-to-User Transfer: Go to the Transfer section of the Pound. Start a transfer of any of your pets to that user, and click the option to see the user’s pets. Be sure to have lots of NP out—if you don’t have enough to adopt the pet, it won’t show it. Be very careful not to complete the transfer.
#17: Why is the purge going so slowly?
Sometimes the purge only appears to be slow; it may be deleting thousands of accounts very quickly, but the marker-finders can’t find every single account. It’s also possible that there’s lag, or that it’s stopped.
#18: What time does the purge begin/end?
When the purge is active, it’s continuously deleting names. Sometimes when it seems like it has stopped, it’s only stuck on a particularly crowded section of accounts. Other times, it might take a short break. But usually, when the purge is active, it’s active 24/7. Sorry, no snack breaks.
When the purge has stopped, it might start over from the beginning of the alphabet, or it might be over for good. We can never predict what the purge will do, so it’s best to just keep an eye on your names.
#19: Why can’t I make an available username?
One of two reasons: 1. The account is under six letters. Accounts under six letters can’t be created anymore. Sorry. 🙁 2. The username is one of the glitched 2012 purge usernames. All usernames freed up in the 2012 purge are glitched and might never be available for creation. The glitch had to do with sister sites (Petpet Park/Monkey Quest), but even though the sister sites are now gone, the glitch remains. Hopefully TNT will fix it after they’ve resolved some of the more important transition-related glitches. It might help if you sent in a suggestion to the Editorial or a ticket asking them to fix purged usernames.
Edit: I sent in a ticket about the usernames and received this reply:
How does TNT plan to “clear out data”? No one but TNT knows, but my guess is another purge would do the job. So, the usernames might become available in the next purge.
#20: It says my name is inappropriate? D:
Something in the pet name is triggering that filter. The pet can’t be created and there’s nothing you can do about it.
#21: The pet I’m stalking isn’t on the userlookup anymore.
This is called “gwenning”, because it first happened to the name “Gwen”. If an account with a Gwenned pet is deleted, the pet isn’t purged, but is released into the pound at a later time. It could take months or even years for them to come out; some pets gwenned in the 2012 purge still haven’t come out yet. This is not an automatic process, because TNT has to manually release the pet.
Gwenned pets will retain the name format they had originally. If they were uncapitalized, they will stay uncapitalized when they are dropped into the pound. They also retain their original age. They will not, however, stay unconverted. One of the first gwenned UCs, Poet, retained its old art, but all subsequent ones were converted.
#22: The petpage says my name is on “direct_transfer”.
#24: The petpage says the pet is on the account “none”.
When a pet is listed as being on the account “none”, it is either in the Pound or in a special account formerly known as pound_release. If you search the Pound for the pet and it isn’t in there, the pet is in pound_release.
Pound Release is completely unrelated to the purge. It’s the system that releases pets from when the pound was down a few years ago. Names on pound_release won’t purge. Pound Release used to regularly release its pets into the pound, but it was paused in 2019 due to the UC Santa incident, so the pets on it are sort of in limbo now.
Pound release also has nothing to do with Gwenning, despite sharing the place the pets are released.
#25: Do “Not Yet Born” pets purge?
A long time ago, pet creation was different. You could stop in the middle of the creation process, which would result in a pet that was “Not yet born”. Not yet born pets are perfectly eligible to purge—since these owners haven’t come back and finished creating their pet in all those years, these names are especially likely to purge.
#26: Who is this Snobby people keep talking about?
Snobby (username: snobbby) is a benevolent being who, in his infinite majesty, bestows upon the purge forum great knowledge of the names which the purge approaches. Snobby wishes only for equality and justice. There are those who speak ill of the Snobby, but we do not heed their words, for Snobby has granted the folk of the purge forum many blessed gifts of names in return for our kissing up to him. Should you desire knowledge of a name approaching, simply ask it of Snobby, and he may see fit to grant your desire.
#27: Why can’t I pound/trade my purged pet?
Pets cannot be traded or pounded until they are at least seven days (168 hours) old. Sorry, you’ll have to wait.
#28: What were previous purges like?
There have been four major site purges:
The first purge occurred some time from April to November 2004. There aren’t many names left over from it anymore.
The second purge was very slow. It was active from around December 2006 to October 2007. Nobody knew how to track the purge at that time, or if they did, they kept it to themselves; the few people who knew about this purge simply refreshed on the pets’ lookups, hoping to be around to recreate the name when it was deleted. As you can imagine, it was very frustrating, since your chances at your dream name depended entirely on your amount of free time and luck. Trading wasn’t allowed at the time, either, so if you missed your name, you were done for (unless the name went UFA). Most of the RN/RW UCs we know and love came from this purge; you will notice that a lot of them were born in 2006 or 2007 (Y8 or Y9). RW UCs are such a rarity because people only had a few months to paint their new RWs before the conversion hit in April 2007.
The third purge was active from November 2010 to March 2011. This was the first purge to gain widespread attention among Neopians, and the first purge to be tracked with the marker system we have now. The first (known) RN/RW that came from Purge #3 was Wrestler, and Claire a bit later.
After that, two “hiccups” happened: one on March 12, 2012, during which the account “saddy” purged with the pets Grey, Sad, and Egg. The second hiccup was on October 5th, 2012. Only a few names purged, the first of which was Heartbreak. This purge covered some usernames beginning with A, stopped only a few hours after it began, and everyone thought the purge was over.
On October 8th, 2012, someone made a board telling the PC that the pet Hope had purged, and then it was known that the purge had restarted. This purge, Purge #4, lasted more than a month, purged many names through the entire alphabet and even through the never-before-purged underscores, and finally ground to a halt on November 12th, 2012.
Nobody knows when Purge #5 will happen, but it’ll definitely be awesome.
QUESTION #0: WHEN IS THE NEXT PURGE??? ARE WE THERE YET?!?
Previously, TNT has purged inactive accounts about every three years (read more on the history of purges here). It has been more than nine years since the last purge, which ended in November 2012. Essentially, TNT has been saying the purge will come “soon” for a while now.
October 15, 2021: The last on-site confirmation of the purge was in Editorial 946:
Hi, TNT! So it’s been over 4 years since you last said it was “safe to say we can expect another purge to come up” and that we’d get “a more detailed update soon”. So err, any word on that update? I think with the new pet slots coming up, a purge to go along with that would be amazing, if possible!
Right now we’re focused on Pet Slots, UC Pets, and converting more pages to mobile, but a purge is still in our future plans. Certain dev tasks are more complicated than others and we have to balance content and events with backend updates like purges. ~~GutterfootJuly 25, 2019: In an offsite Q&A session, Scrappy answered a question about the purge:
Is there going to be a purge soon? I’ve heard rumors but nothing concrete
we definitely want to soon! it takes a good amount of dev work so we’ve been waiting til we have some more time but with the mobile conversion, we will find time for a purgeSince TNT is still busy converting Neo’s vast trove of Flash games to HTML5, it is unlikely TNT will devote resources to anything else until most of the games are converted.
Restocking is hanging out in official Neopets shops, waiting to buy items to re-sell them in your own shop (or if you’re lucky, on the Trading Post)! Restocking seems complicated, but it’s actually quite simple! The only hard part is remembering what you should and shouldn’t buy. Restocking works by refreshing official Neopets shops, such as the Fresh Food Shop. When you see something you want to buy, click on it and type in your haggle. If you’re quick, the item is yours! Now you can put it into your shop to sell it.
WHERE ARE GOOD PLACES TO RESTOCK? Honestly, wherever you like, really! Find shops that interest you. Do you like goodie bags? Check out the toy shop! Do you like plushies? The plushie shop has lots of nice items! There’s no real wrong answer. Just be aware that some shops have more bait items than others, and some (like Kauvara’s Magic Shop) move incredibly quickly, so would be better to tackle once you’re comfortable with restocking.
Shops like Kayla’s Potionery are excellent for new players because people with younger accounts can buy plenty of high-profit items because of their low rarity. Some shops (like Collectable Cards) are also slow to re-sell, so keep that in mind when choosing shops!
WOAH, DID YOU SAY SOMETHING ABOUT ACCOUNT RESTRICTIONS!? Yes, unfortunately, because of people breaking the rules, there are account age restrictions on restocking. If you look at your profile, you’ll see a shield saying how long you’ve been on the site.

HOW DO I NOT GET RESTOCK BANNED? It’s not really avoidable, but it helps to slow down your refreshing. 3-5 seconds is a generally good rule to keep in mind!
WHERE DID ALL THE ITEMS IN THE SHOPS GO? They cleared! The shops clear out their stock periodically, which is great because it means a whole new chance at rare items! Keep refreshing until they stock, but not TOO often! Don’t want to get a restock ban and miss it.
THE SHOPS SAY THEY RESTOCK EVERY 8 MINUTES, BUT THEY HAVEN’T RESTOCKED IN A WHILE! WHAT GIVES? I’m sorry to say, but those shopkeepers are dirty liars and you should ignore them. A while back, shops functioned differently than they do now (they didn’t fully clear), and when they changed how the system worked, they never updated the text. Inventory can come back within a matter of seconds, or go several clear cycles without stocking.
WHAT’S ALL THIS TERMINOLOGY I SEE IN THE RESTOCK & CHAT THREAD?
Phrase
Meaning
SWI
Shop with inventory/items. These are shops that have stock in them after a clear. People will also ask for this when they are restock banned so they can check on the status of their ban.

UB
Unbuyable. Something worth more Neopoints than they can be sold for in user shops (where the limit is 999,999).
r99
Generally the holy grail of RSing. High item rarity, often worth a lot of NP.
Junked

ETS
Easy to sell. Self-explanatory!
HTS

GUIDELINES
▸ Beginner Friendly?: My personal insight if the shop is approachable for beginner restockers or not. ▸ Carry: This number is about how much NP you should have on hand if you don’t want to miss something (Due to lack of NPs). ▸ Numbers/Profit: Buy the items that stock for the given amounts. (Exactly the given amounts. If it says 5k, it means 5000. Exactly 5000. 5029? No). ▸ Speed: This is how fast the shop goes (how quickly profitable items disappear) This is usually in proportion to the amount of people in that shop. ▸ Sellability: This shows how easily you can sell an item purchased in this shop. – ETS = Easy To Sell – HTS = Hard To Sell ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: Some shops might have a lot more goodies than I can list! You should always check with Jellyneo’s Item Database and/or SSW for a more recent notable visual. ▸ My Comments: Something I (Chips) have to say about this shop.
The Order (in which to go for things): 1. If you see one of these, go for it first. 2. If you don’t see anything mentioned in (1), go for things here. 3. If you don’t see anything mentioned in (1) or (2), go for these and so on.

★ Battle/Defense Magic are the core BD shops. ★ ★ Battledome Equipment are generally HTS unless they’re good or particularly popular in 2P-BD. ★ ★ Battledome Equipment shops overall are not beginner friendly. ★
▸ Beginner Friendly?: No. ▸ Carry: 300k ▸ Numbers/Profit: Research which items are good in the BD. Anything that stocks in 1s and is in the price range of 60k~100k is probably r99. ▸ Speed: Fast. ▸ Sellability: Varies, commonly HTS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: Yes, there are a number of unlisted r99s here for considerable profit. r99 Battle Magic Items are prone to fluctuate, so double-check with Jellyneo’s Item Database and/or SSW for a more recent price history. ▸ My Comments: Battle Magic isn’t the same as it used to be and prices are more misleading than ever. Highland Chia stuff is bad. On a positive note there has been an increased liking for 2P Battling over the last few years. Faerie Tokens, species freezers, and (of course) Bony Grarrl Club (BGC) are still great!
▸ Beginner Friendly?: No. ▸ Carry: 500k ▸ Numbers/Profit: Pretty much the same rules as for Battle Magic, but there are the “Full -petname- Armour”s that stock here rather frequently. 50% pet healers are good too. Basically, all those things that stock for around 80k~110k are very good. ▸ Speed: Fast. ▸ Sellability: Varies, commonly HTS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: Yes, there are a number of unlisted r99s here for considerable profit. r99 Defense Magic Items are prone to fluctuate, so double-check with Jellyneo’s Item Database and/or SSW for a more recent price history. ▸ My Comments: Pretty much the same as Battle Magic: Misleading prices in researching beforehand is best, Highland Chia stuff is bad, some 2P liking, look at restocker screenies. TTear, Rainbow/Purple SS, Big Reflectors are still great!
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Partial. ▸ Carry: 100k ▸ Numbers/Profit: r99 weapons that stock here are also okay, but pretty low in profit. ▸ Speed: Average. ▸ Sellability: Commonly HTS. Neocola Tokens are ETS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: No. ▸ My Comments: Neocola Tokens are profitable items now, so that’s neat.
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Partial, but not really. ▸ Carry: 100k ▸ Numbers/Profit: Semi-high profit, but mostly HTS r99s. ▸ Speed: Average. ▸ Sellability: Commonly HTS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: No. ▸ My Comments: It’s not a shop I would personally RS directly, but I’d say it’s a decent shop to keep as a SWI reference.
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Not really. ▸ Carry: 120k ▸ Numbers/Profit: This shop is crowded mainly for the notorious Freezing Potion (100k). However, this is not the only profitable item. There are a couple others, see the highlights below. ▸ Speed: Fast. ▸ Sellability: ETS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: No. ▸ My Comments: Freezing Potion is the best item and Icy Snowflake is wanted for the Avatar. Bag of Infinite Puce (Ice Crystal) and Stone Drawer (Tyrannian Furniture) are presumably still glitched and will not restock despite their rarity and origin.
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Partial, but sorta yeah. ▸ Carry: 100k. ▸ Numbers/Profit: There’s a quite a number of r99s, but you’re probably only here for Turned Tooth. Turned Tooth restocks around 33k and is very ETS. ▸ Speed: Above Average. ▸ Sellability: Everything except Turned Tooth is commonly HTS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: No. ▸ My Comments: Tyrannian Weaponry can be considered as an introductory shop towards Battle Magic/Defense Magic (BM/DM). Turned Tooth is commonly used for 1P battling for its reasonably affordable price/power rate (and is still okay profit despite the introduction of Void Blade). Lava Arrow is hard bait.
▸ Beginner Friendly?: No. ▸ Carry: 150k ▸ Numbers/Profit: Quite a few and the good items here range from 10k-100k, usually 30k-70k. ▸ Speed: Average. ▸ Sellability: HTS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: No. ▸ My Comments: TBH I wouldn’t start here, because all profitable items are low return HTS r99s.
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Not really. ▸ Carry: 550k ▸ Numbers/Profit: Quite a few things, see the highlights. ▸ Speed: Average. ▸ Sellability: Commonly HTS. Cursed Elixir is ETS, but it usually a loss. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: No. ▸ My Comments: Tons of trap items.
▸ Beginner Friendly?: No… ▸ Carry: 150k ▸ Numbers/Profit: You’re only here to haggle down Greater Healing Scroll. ▸ Speed: Below Average. ▸ Sellability: Greater Healing Scroll (90k-110k) is ETS, but like that’s a lot haggling my guy. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: No. ▸ My Comments: Don’t go here for profit unless there’s a Battle Event and people are fighting for Scroll of Freezing and Greater Healing Scrolls. This is worth the mention, because a lot of seasoned BDers recommend Greater Healing Scroll even though Wonderous Weaponry’s Helm of Recovery does the same thing. IT’S JUST MORE NOSTALGIC AND ICONIC
▸ Beginner Friendly?: No. ▸ Carry: 200k ▸ Numbers/Profit: Three big items and a couple of casuals on the side that are all (or somewhat) ETS. Heavy Blue Tunic restocks around 120k, Crisp Blue Tunic is 80k, and Short Sleeved Yellow Tunic is 125k. ▸ Speed: Above Average. ▸ Sellability: Slightly ETS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: No. ▸ My Comments: There are a few very high profitable items here.
▸ Beginner Friendly?: No. ▸ Carry: 120k ▸ Numbers/Profit: Maractite Dimensional Trap restocks for about 55-65k. ▸ Speed: Below Average. ▸ Sellability: HTS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: No. ▸ My Comments: TBH I wouldn’t start here, because all profitable items are low return HTS r99s aside from Maractite Dimensional Trap. People are only restocking here for that.
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Not really. ▸ Carry: 440k. ▸ Numbers/Profit: See the highlights. If you want the Bow of the Water Faerie, otherwise 200k. ▸ Speed: Below Average. ▸ Sellability: Commonly HTS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: No. ▸ My Comments: Discount Battle/Defense Magic.
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Not really. ▸ Carry: 150k ▸ Numbers/Profit: All items are usually under 60k, but HTS. ▸ Speed: Below Average. ▸ Sellability: HTS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: No. ▸ My Comments: Altadorian Swordbreaker is a BD favorite even though there really hasn’t been a real use for it in the longest time.
Highlights: (Most Profitable)
96. Magical Marvels
▸ Beginner Friendly?: No. ▸ Carry: 200k ▸ Numbers/Profit: You’re only here for Bag of Healing Dust (restocks around 100k). ▸ Speed: Fast. ▸ Sellability: Bag of Healing Dust is ETS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: No. ▸ My Comments: Just get Feel Better Soup instead.
Highlights: (The Only Profitable Item)
100. Wonderous Weaponry
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Not really. ▸ Carry: 100k ▸ Numbers/Profit: Same reason with Greater Healing Scroll for Helm of Recovery. Helm of Recovery is like 90k, so you’d want to haggle that down and you’ve got time to do so. Shuriken restocks for 10k. ▸ Speed: Very Slow. ▸ Sellability: HTS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: No. ▸ My Comments: This place is probably more like my favorite SWI tbh.
★ Magical Book Shop and Booktastic Books are the core Books shops. ★ ★ Books are generally HTS and not always significantly profitable. ★ ★ The Water Faerie will ask for Books that are r69 and under from the Magical Book Shop. ★ ★ Book shops overall are in the middle of being beginner friendly. ★
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Yes. ▸ Carry: 30k ▸ Numbers/Profit: Look for books stocking at 10k, 5k, 2.5k they are almost always profitable. ▸ Speed: Fast. ▸ Sellability: ETS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: Yes, there are a LOT of unlisted high rarity items here for a considerable profit. Most of the unlisted high rarity Magical Book items are r90-99s, so double-check with Jellyneo’s Item Database and/or SSW for a more recent price history. ▸ My Comments: Fantastic for beginners. Be fast. The moment it RSes, be sure to find the 10k, 5k, and 2.5k items and buy them. ALWAYS read the news to see what’s new, and if you get one of the first, you can sell it for a high price before it deflates.
The Order: 1. Books that stock above 20K and 10k books. 2. 5k Books. 3. 2.5k Books.
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Partial. ▸ Carry: 40k ▸ Numbers/Profit: Fountain of Youth restocks for 10k. ▸ Speed: Average. ▸ Sellability: Average. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: Possibly, Make Your Own Faerie Gift Baskets and Building Igloos with Taelia might be okay, but there might be a very low profit difference (or random inflation). ▸ My Comments: The majority of the books here are bait.
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Partial. ▸ Carry: 80k ▸ Numbers/Profit: Heaps! Your highlights range from 10k-30k. ▸ Speed: Average. ▸ Sellability: Slightly ETS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: No. ▸ My Comments: The Stat Boosting scrolls are very ETS.
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Yes. ▸ Carry: 100k ▸ Numbers/Profit: 2.5k, 5k, 10k, 25k but there are also a few that go in between like 6k and 15k. There are ten r100s here. Those are good, obviously. The other r97+ can often be sold for quite a few million. ▸ Speed: Fast. ▸ Sellability: ETS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: Yes and honestly, this shop is pretty amazing during HPD if you’re into a ton of small profits. There might be the occasional randomly inflated item here. ▸ My Comments: Booktastic Books are more ETS than regular books, because the reading award is more achievable in a sense. Some people just love clearing through a single usershop of these.
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Partial, but not really. ▸ Carry: 30k ▸ Numbers/Profit: Alchemy Lessons restocks for around 13k and Waking the Draik is 25k. ▸ Speed: Slow. ▸ Sellability: Average. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: No. ▸ My Comments: The majority of the books here are bait. It’s like worse than Faerie Book Shop.
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Partial. ▸ Carry: 100k ▸ Numbers/Profit: The Pyramid Tablets restocks for 10k. ▸ Speed: Average. ▸ Sellability: Average. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: No. ▸ My Comments: This shop is boring.
Highlights: (Most Profitable)
106. Neovian Printing Press
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Partial. ▸ Carry: 20k ▸ Numbers/Profit: The r99s go for 25k to 30k to 40k. ▸ Speed: Slow. ▸ Sellability: Average. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: No. ▸ My Comments: BE WARNED: THE VAST MAJORITY IS BAIT HERE
Highlights: (Most Profitable)
114. Moltaran Books
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Yes. ▸ Carry: 40k ▸ Numbers/Profit: Locating Iron restocks for 30k and How to Get Past the Guard is 50k. The other big profitable items are 15k-20k. ▸ Speed: Slow. ▸ Sellability: ETS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: No. ▸ My Comments: I want to say a lot of people will purchase even the bait from this shop for the sake of accomplishment that they read all the books from one shop.
★ Collectable Cards and Neopian Post Office are the core Collectable shops. ★ ★ All these shops have high competition, but they do have an immense amount of profitable items. ★ ★ The Light Faerie will ask for Cards that are r69 and under from the Collectable Card Shop. ★ ★ Collectables shops overall are NOT beginner friendly. ★
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Yes. ▸ Carry: 200k for Swamp Ghoul, but if not then just bring 100k for everything else. ▸ Numbers/Profit: It’s fairly easy to recognize profitable items in this shop, because they pretty much all look the same, except for color differences. This will be explained later. ▸ Speed: Above Average. ▸ Sellability: Average. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: Yes, I guess so?!? Double-check with Jellyneo’s Item Database and/or SSW for a more recent price history for the items listed here. ▸ My Comments: Although you should buy based on color, it’s always a plus to go for the avatar cards. Everything will sell eventually in reasonable pace, because collectables are just like that.
The Order: The order to go for things is simple. Just go from rarest to most common, according to the chart below. Exceptions are cards that linger and stock too much.
0. If you ever see a holographic card, then grab it QUICK. All r100s which are notoriously rare. 1. Yellow is r91 and above. Ghoul Catchers, Princess Vyssa, King Roo, Stan the Kyrii, Kreai, The Brain Tree, The Great Blurendo, Krawk card, Princess Sankara, Guardian of Ice Magic, Garrox5 The Grundo Trooper, and Korosu Crestscar are bait. 2. Blue and Reds are common Light Faerie Quest Items. Fire Paw and Kasuki Lu are notable.
▸ Beginner Friendly?: NO, AVOID. ▸ Carry: 150k for Grimtooth Stamp, but if not then just bring 70k for everything else. ▸ Numbers/Profit: 5k, 10k, 10k+. Misprinted, Holographic, and other rare stamps are good. ▸ Speed: Very Fast. ▸ Sellability: ETS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: Yes, there are a LOT of unlisted high rarity items here for a considerable profit. You would want to know the r90-99s, so double-check with Jellyneo’s Item Database and/or SSW for a more recent price history. ▸ My Comments: Lots (and I mean lots) of VERY profitable items here. This is home to the most experienced and fastest RSers. This is the place to be on HPD. There are many items here that are worth over 3mil or so. Research full album pages and go for stamps that are on the bottom row.
▸ Beginner Friendly?: No. ▸ Carry: 200k for Choker of the Deep, but if not then just bring 50k for everything else. ▸ Numbers/Profit: 5k to 10k. ▸ Speed: Fast. ▸ Sellability: ETS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: Possibly yes, there might be a couple of unlisted high rarity items here for a considerable profit. There are some items here that have strange to extreme price fluctuations (Exquisite Peophin Ring of the Deep and Large Maractite Coin really), so double-check with Jellyneo’s Item Database and/or SSW for a more recent price history. ▸ My Comments: Shells can be considered an introductory shop towards Stamp, but both have steady competition from the same restocking audience. Golden Shell is your main big ticket item, because that’s the cheapest Stamp Album Avatar. Floral Maractite Coin and Choker of the Deep are good too I GUESS.
★ Food Shop is the core Food shop lol. ★ ★ Food items are generally ETS and especially for The Kadoatery, Quests of Neopia, and etc. ★ ★ The Soup Faerie will ask for Smoothies that are r69 and under from the Smoothie Store. ★ ★ Varies on the shop, but Food overall are ETS in terms of profiting. ★ ★ Food shops overall are beginner friendly. ★
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Yes. ▸ Carry: 40k ▸ Numbers/Profit: Go for all the 10k items and most 5k. Avoid most if not all the 2.5k items, no matter how cool they look. r90-r100 foods are gourmet foods. ▸ Speed: Fast. ▸ Sellability: ETS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: Yes, there are a LOT of unlisted low (Certain Neggs, Chocolate Ice Cream, etc.) and high rarity (Gourmet) foods here for a considerable profit, so double-check with Jellyneo’s Item Database and/or SSW for a more recent price history. Leaf Taco (r100) is also theoretically restockable, but I don’t want to list that lol. ▸ My Comments: Great shop for beginners albeit it is quite fast! Neggs that reward Negg Points and Bag of Peanuts are the best items for newer accounts. If you mess up then they’ll be someone wanting to still buy low rarity foods for Kad Feeding (up to r95), Kitchen Quest (up to r89), etc.; the profit will just be low.
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Partial, not really. ▸ Carry: 100k for Sniddberry Meerca Gobstopper, but if not then just bring 50k for everything else. ▸ Numbers/Profit: 5k and 10k items. ▸ Speed: Above Average. ▸ Sellability: Slightly HTS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: Yes, there are more Candy items that are still okay (or randomly inflated). The items here are still considered to be slightly HTS (chepaer items are more ETS), so double-checking with Jellyneo’s Item Database and/or SSW is advised. ▸ My Comments: 5k and 10k items that stock will get you the Chocolate Avatar but due to that, the shop’s r90s can be bait if you’re restocking outside that. Also, Kads do not eat foods from here.
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Yes. ▸ Carry: 50k ▸ Numbers/Profit: 5k and 10k items. ▸ Speed: Average. ▸ Sellability: Average. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: Yes, there are more Bakery items that are still okay (or randomly inflated). The items here are still considered to be slightly HTS (chepaer items are more ETS), so double-checking with Jellyneo’s Item Database and/or SSW is advised. ▸ My Comments: If Food is too much competition for you then Bakery is more relaxed for casual restocking. Also, Kads do not eat foods from here.
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Partial, but not really. ▸ Carry: 40k ▸ Numbers/Profit: 5k and 10k items. ▸ Speed: Average. ▸ Sellability: Average. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: Yes, there are more Healthy Food items that are still okay (or randomly inflated). The items here are still considered to be average in sellability, so double-checking with Jellyneo’s Item Database and/or SSW is advised. ▸ My Comments: Cone-Shaped Cherry, Lemon, and Orange are the only good geometric fruit to mention.
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Not really. ▸ Carry: 40k ▸ Numbers/Profit: Mega Honeyplume restocks around 8k, Large Sand is 16k, and the other two are 10k. ▸ Speed: Average. ▸ Sellability: HTS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: Sorta, but they’re the Soup Faerie items (r69 Smoothie items and under). Nothing else of high value. ▸ My Comments: You could try here for HPD, but there’s so much competition that’s not really worth it.
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Partial. ▸ Carry: 40k for everything. ▸ Numbers/Profit: 10k and 40k items. Doughnutfruit, Tigersquashes, and Chokatos are great! ▸ Speed: Above Average. ▸ Sellability: Average. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: Yes, there are more Tropical Food items that are still okay (or randomly inflated). Simmered Tropical Fruit Bowl is a notable item falls under this category as it stocks at 3.5m. The items here are still considered to be average in sellability, so double-checking with Jellyneo’s Item Database and/or SSW is advised. ▸ My Comments: There’s a terrifyingly large amount of r9X range bait, but Doughnutfruit r99s a plenty!
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Partial, but not really. ▸ Carry: 40k ▸ Numbers/Profit: Tofu Space Slug Soup and Vegetarian Sloth Wrap restock are around 15k-17k. The other items are 10k. ▸ Speed: Average. ▸ Sellability: HTS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: No. ▸ My Comments: Not many profitable items here, but there’s like three that are worth a lot.
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Yes. ▸ Carry: 50k ▸ Numbers/Profit: 5k and 10k items. ▸ Speed: Above Average. ▸ Sellability: ETS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: Yes, there are a couple of low rarity profitable items here. Disturbing Gelatin, Candy Skull, Elephante Trunk Stew, Carnivorous Carved Pumpkin, etc. tend to be okay, but r89 items and under tend to be volatile due to the Brain Tree. For higher rarity items, there’s nothing else notable unless they’re randomly inflated. ▸ My Comments: Snorkle Snouts is good for the avatar and with the rise of demand of Spooky Foods from the Brain Tree HST Avatar this shop is pretty great for beginner restocking nowadays.
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Partial. ▸ Carry: 50k ▸ Numbers/Profit: Coffee Service restocks around 25k while most of the other goodies restock at 10k. ▸ Speed: Average. ▸ Sellability: Some ETS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: Possibly, Mad Meepit Mocha and Borovan Service might be okay, but there might be a very low profit difference (or random inflation). ▸ My Comments: There’s more Coffee Galleries than Gourmet folks in terms of who’s buying stuff here. Also, Kads do not eat foods from here.
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Parital. ▸ Carry: 40k ▸ Numbers/Profit: Most good items here restock around prices of 10k, 15k, and 25k. ▸ Speed: Average. ▸ Sellability: Some ETS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: No. ▸ My Comments: Also, Kads do not eat foods from here.
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Partial, but not really. ▸ Carry: 40k ▸ Numbers/Profit: Go for Magical Chia Pops (10k-30k); they restock in the middle rows. Ice Lollies usually go for 10k-13k. ▸ Speed: Above Average. ▸ Sellability: ETS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: Possibly, Royal Ice Lolly and Ice Ice Cream might be okay, but there might be a very low profit difference (or random inflation). ▸ My Comments: Premium Perk spiked the price of Magical Chia Pops, but there’s also that RE I guess.
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Partial. ▸ Carry: 30k. ▸ Numbers/Profit: Like nearly all the good items here are 10k exact. Faerie Queen Smoothie Bowl is most of the time bait at 760k to 920k NPs. ▸ Speed: Above Average. ▸ Sellability: ETS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: No. ▸ My Comments: Faerie Mushrooms are great. Home to a lot of kawaii aesthetic gallery items.

Hot Dog with Everything stocks at about 60k. ▸ Speed: Average. ▸ Sellability: Average. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: Possibly, Strawberry Flavoured Hot Dog, Honey Coated Hot Dog, and 14 Karat Baked Potato might be okay, but there might be a very low profit difference (or random inflation). ▸ My Comments: Apparently baked potatoes are considered hot dogs.
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Partial. ▸ Carry: 30k ▸ Numbers/Profit: 5k to 10k. ▸ Speed: Average. ▸ Sellability: Average. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: No. ▸ My Comments: No one buys eaten pizzas, so stop trying sell those smh my head.

▸ Beginner Friendly?: Partial, but not really. ▸ Carry: 1.7m for the Darigan and Zombie Draik Egg, but if not then just bring 200k for everything else. ▸ Numbers/Profit: See the highlights. Basic Draik Egg colors and Ice are 5 digit haggles; and Island, Darigan, and Zombie are 6 digit haggles. The other items are 10k to 50k. ▸ Speed: Average. ▸ Sellability: Average. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: No. ▸ My Comments: Some Draik Eggs are bait now aside from HPD or just haggling a lot (Desert, Island, Basic Color except Red, etc). Also, Kads do eat foods from here, just not Draik Eggs.
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Not really. ▸ Carry: 50k ▸ Numbers/Profit: 10k items really. Sushi Boat restocks around 40k. ▸ Speed: Slow. ▸ Sellability: Slightly ETS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: No. ▸ My Comments: Most of the bait still gets bought for those kawaii aesthetic galleries.

Statues are the most recognizable. ▸ Speed: Average. ▸ Sellability: HTS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: Yes, there might be like a couple of more Gardening items that are still okay (or randomly inflated). The items here are still considered to be HTS, so double-checking with Jellyneo’s Item Database and/or SSW is advised. ▸ My Comments: Garden to a lot of weirdly priced r99s that only questers buy really. Since 2022, TNT has been releasing more wearables here, Prigpants & Swolthy, Tailors, and Cog’s Togs than at Uni’s Clothing.

Bag of Infinite Puce (Ice Crystal) and Stone Drawer (Tyrannian Furniture) are presumably still glitched and will not restock despite their rarity and origin.

Herbal Scrambled Eggs and Magic Cookie are bait, but they worth the mention during HPD as they restock in bulk and are considered worthwhile for FEA Jobs.Highlights: (Most Profitable)
85. Lost Desert Medicine
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Yes. ▸ Carry: 10k ▸ Numbers/Profit: You’re only here for the Doctors Bags. They restock under 2k and in bulk. ▸ Speed: Slow. ▸ Sellability: Doctors Bag is ETS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: No. ▸ My Comments: The start of the gambler’s dilemma of opening for Sporkle Syrup or just selling directly.Highlights: (The Only Profitable Item)
★ There is no core shop for the Miscellaneous section. ★ ★ Most items here are generally HTS unless they’re wearables or discounted r99s. ★ ★ The Air Faerie will ask for Grooming Items that are r69 and under from the Grooming Parlour. ★ ★ Varies on the shop, but these shops overall are HTS in terms of profiting. ★ ★ These shops overall are not beginner friendly. ★
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Not really. ▸ Carry: 40k ▸ Numbers/Profit: 10k items really. ▸ Speed: Slow. ▸ Sellability: HTS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: Sorta, Air Faerie Quest items and sometimes Red Eye Shadow (restocks for 2.5k). ▸ My Comments: Air Faerie Quests Items are cool, but like you’d probably want to do Petpets instead for more profit. People usually dodge/reroll Air Faerie Quests.
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Partial, but not really. ▸ Carry: 50k ▸ Numbers/Profit: 5k, 10k, and 13k. On HPD, Bears are considered worthwhile for FEA Jobs. ▸ Speed: Fast. ▸ Sellability: The wearables ETS, but the rest are HTS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: No. ▸ My Comments: This shop has become TNT’s anything shop nowadays. Food, wearables, etc.
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Partial, but sorta yeah. ▸ Carry: 100k if you’re going for Skull Full of Sand, but 50k if not. ▸ Numbers/Profit: Skull Full of Sand restocks around ~70k. ▸ Speed: Slow. ▸ Sellability: The r99s are HTS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: No. ▸ My Comments: Back then, this shop wasn’t exactly recommended due to most of the items’ sellability being HTS for a low return, but the future is now!
▸ Beginner Friendly?: No. ▸ Carry: 50k, but 100k if you want Bone Trombone. ▸ Numbers/Profit: See the highlights. Most profitable items here restock anywhere from 10k to 30k aside from the Bone Trombone at 75k. ▸ Speed: Very Slow. ▸ Sellability: HTS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: No. ▸ My Comments: So slow that the few here r99s can sit there for more than a couple seconds.

The petpets are somewhere 25k to 125k. ▸ Speed: Fast. ▸ Sellability: Slightly ETS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: No. ▸ My Comments: Very high profitable petpets here. If you’re here to RS Grey Faerie Items then prioritize the Puppyblews. By highly profitable, the Grey Faerie Items are like usually 50-200 NPs each petpet, so try to buy in bulk, since they’re extremely easy to sell.
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Not really. ▸ Carry: 30k or 130k if you want Vacu.matic 9000. ▸ Numbers/Profit: Most good items are like 10k. ▸ Speed: Below Average. ▸ Sellability: HTS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: No. ▸ My Comments: My least favorite Petpets shop.

▸ Beginner Friendly?: NO, AVOID. ▸ Carry If you just want the normal morphing potions, 100k-200k should do. ▸ Numbers/Profit: Don’t buy by stock cost, just buy all the MP’s except the ones noted below. Although 10k items are good in most shops, Magic is an exception. ▸ Speed: Very Fast. ▸ Sellability: ETS morphing potions are the limited edition species (Draik/Hissi/Krawk/Lutari) and expensive colours (Maractite/Stealth/Faerie) it depends on the popularity. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: Yes, but do know that this section is unique in that matter of listing the bait items to avoid. Everything listed below is high rarity bait and there might be more junk items (i.e. Lutari Healing Potion). The non-MP goodies to look out for are 8-bit Power-Up Potion, Kauvaras Potion, Strange Potion, Rainbow Swirly Potion, Christmas Magic Hat, Light Faerie Dust, Water Faerie Bubbles, and Flaming Torch. Ice Hissi MP, Pirate Krawk MP, and Chomby Staff are hard bait. ▸ My Comments: This is not the shop to start restocking in, you need to be very fast and know what to look for. There are other potions here that aren’t just morphing potions, some are profitable, some aren’t. Look for Kauvara’s Potion, Strange Potion, Rainbow Swirly Potion and things like Water Faerie Bubbles and Light Faerie Dust. The Order: 1. Morphing Potions of expensive colors (Plushie, Darigan, Faerie, Stealthy, Maractite) and Limited Edition Pet potions (Cybunny, Draik, Krawk, Lutari, Ruki). 8-bit Power-Up Potion, Kauvaras Potion, Strange Potion, and Rainbow Swirly Potion. 2. Morphing Potions of special colors (Striped, Split, Starry, Electric, etc). Christmas Magic Hat and Light Faerie Dust. 3. Basic color Morphing Potions. Although, not all basic color Morphing Potions are profitable. Water Faerie Bubbles and Flaming Torch. 4. Most Earth Faerie Quest items: Fire Jug, Magical Vial, Nanka Bottle, Starlight Potion, Steam Jug, and Steam of Light.

Most Stat Boosters restock in bulk. ▸ Speed: Fast. ▸ Sellability: ETS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: No. ▸ My Comments: Kaylas can be considered as an introductory shop towards Magic (Kauvara’s Magic Shop). Stat Boosters are very easy to sell with a large return making this shop quite enjoyable for beginners of all account ages.

83. Royal Potionery
▸ Beginner Friendly?: No. ▸ Carry: 200k ▸ Numbers/Profit: Leaded Elemental Vial (150k-175k) is the number one thing you need to go for. ▸ Speed: Fast. ▸ Sellability: LEV is ETS, everything else is HTS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: No. ▸ My Comments: This really should have been in the Battledome section, but like it has Potions in the name. In 1P-BD terms, Lightning in a Bottle is like a similar counterpart to Turned Tooth to have some specified audience of people wanting to purchase that every now and then.
★ There is no core shop for the Toys section. Well maybe just Toy and Plushie. ★ ★ Toy and Plushie have high competition, but they do have an immense amount of profitable items. ★ ★ The Dark Faerie will ask for Toys that are r69 and under from the Toy Shop. ★ ★ Varies on the shop, but Toy shops overall are average in terms of profiting. ★ ★ Toy shops overall are in the middle of being beginner friendly. ★
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Partial, but sorta yeah. ▸ Carry: 160k ▸ Numbers/Profit: Most Snowglobes, Faerie Dolls, Snowglobes, Quigukis, Goodie Bags, Stockings, Charms are good! Higher rarity items usually restock for 10k or 12k while most Goodie Bags RS under 5k. ▸ Speed: Very Fast. ▸ Sellability: Slightly HTS, but Goodie Bags and Charms are ETS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: Yes, there are a LOT of unlisted high and low rarity items here for a considerable profit. Most if not all of the profitable low rarity items are openable items (Goodie Bags, Stockings, etc.). The profitable r90-99 items may vary, but you would want to know the other charms, Faerie items, non-Faerie/Quiguki r99s, etc., so double-check with Jellyneo’s Item Database and/or SSW for a more recent price history. ▸ My Comments: Jhuidah Faerie Doll is hard bait. New toys are sometimes worth picking up, since they’re like the only thing TNT is releasing aside from wearables. It’s really up to you to take that chance. Also, Broken Toys are HTS, so don’t unironically break them for profit. Additional note: Lord Kass Quiguki is also an r100 here, but they may or may not restock anymore, so there’s that for a heads up, because I don’t want to make a 7th row.
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Not really. ▸ Carry: 150k. ▸ Numbers/Profit: 10k items, Faerie Usukis, and Reject Usukis that stock 90k are decent. ▸ Speed: Fast. ▸ Sellability: HTS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: Yes, there might be like a couple of more Usukiland items that are still okay (or randomly inflated).

Most of the unlisted high rarity Toy items are r95-99s, so double-check with Jellyneo’s Item Database and/or SSW for a more recent price history. ▸ My Comments: Angel Kiko Plushie is hard bait. Zafara Double Agent Plushie restocks here.
★ Uni’s Clothing is the core Wearables shops. ★ ★ Wearables are generally ETS. Non-wearable clothing are HTS. ★ ★ The Fire Faerie will ask for Clothing Items r69 and under from Uni’s Clothing. ★ ★ Wearable shops overall are in the middle of being beginner friendly. ★
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Partial, but sorta yeah. ▸ Carry: 100k ▸ Numbers/Profit: 5k to 10k. Some can be like 8k and 12k too. It is best to do extra research on JN or chatting with other Clothes RSers on what is good here. ▸ Speed: Fast. ▸ Sellability: Varies on species and clothing set, but mostly ETS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: Yes, see below. ▸ My Comments: This is my favorite shop, but it also can be considered one of the most complicated shops there is. My advice is that you’d want to research what species are popular (Aisha, Draik, Lupe, etc) and not (Ogrin, Techo, Tonu, etc). This is the shop that probably gets the most new releases nowadays, so I would check the New Features for COOL AND NEW things to grab. Also, all the r99s except for Shoyru Pink Aviator Jacket are Petpet Shirts that restock in the top row.
The Order: 1. Popular species (Aisha, Draik, Lupe, etc.) clothing, r99 Petpet Shirts and Shoyru Pink Aviator Jacket, high rarity all species wearables (Steel Nails, 3D Glasses, etc.), and newer wearables (Pretty Net Dress, Illusen Umbrella Cut Dress, and species are hit or miss). 2. Faerie Wings, School Girl Clothing, and Fance Top. 3. Golden Maraquan Trident, Maraquan Fin Wings, Blue Wocky Costume, and Fancy Black Belt.

Most items here are not profitable due to the Clarence Chichester Coggeshale Random Event.
▸ Beginner Friendly?: Partial, but not really. ▸ Carry: 30k ▸ Numbers/Profit: Creepy Darigan restocks for 15k, Petpet Trainer is 10k, and Underwater is 5k. The Boon items are around 2.5k to 20k. ▸ Speed: Average. ▸ Sellability: ETS. ▸ Any Unlisted/Additional Notable Items?: No. ▸ My Comments: I only restock here during BMB, but Underwater BGs are very ETS.

★ FAQ
▸ Why is there like nothing good? How long does it take for X appear? Restocks and clears are all random.
Restocking is all about having patience for shops to restock, being quick enough to make the haggle, and then having the patience again to sell. It can take minutes to hours for shops to restock/clear and it’s completely up to chance if specific items appear at all (the higher the rarity index, the rarer the item). Most of the time shops will stock nothing but junk but that won’t stop us from trying!
Also, if your account is younger than 3 months, you might have some restocking restrictions:
Age of Account
Rarities Visible
Newbie
≤ r79
10 Days
≤ r84
16 Days
≤ r89
1 Month
≤ r94
3 Months
≤ r100
▸ Why did all the items in the official shops just suddenly poof? AM I SHOP BANNED ALREADY That’s what we call a Clear. Shops automatically “clear” out items at random intervals, so that new items can restock!
If you think there’s a clear or you’re shop banned, you can do the following: A. Check other shops you wouldn’t normally visit for an SWI (Shop With Items). B. If you had a shop tab open with stock before the clear, then try to buy an item. If it sends you to the haggle screen rather than a sold out screen, then you’re restock banned. C. Ask other RSers for an SWI to verify if you’re restock banned or not. D. Check on a side account for an SWI (DO NOT RESTOCK ON SIDE ACCOUNTS).
If you are shop banned, don’t worry it’s normal. They can last up to 24 hours if you’re really unlucky.
▸ So I just got unbanned like a minute ago, but I just got shop banned AGAIN? RUDE There’s this kinda weird speculation that if you try to restock immediately after your shop ban, then you’re get shop banned again. Most seasoned RSers would say to wait awhile before RSing again.
Look at you, getting yourself shop banned all over again.
▸ I JUST WANT THE CHOCOLATE AV!?! GIVE PLS???? I’m sure there’s people on the Restock & Chat Threads that are kindly willing to announce some junk r90s chocolates if you ask politely. You still gotta be fast though.
Oh we’re bad, bad r80s. ▸ Okay, so I restocked three Neggs, am I ready for Magic/Stamps now? Probably not, but you can try if you have enough NP to be steady afterwards. Magic, Stamps, and other high competition shops can be rage inducing, so it’s best to try out the other lesser competitive shops first. In Magic/Stamps, go prepare to be constantly disappointed in yourself.
▸ How long does it take X to sell? I WANT MY NEOPOINTS AND I WANT IT NOW Things don’t sell instantly, so have patience. Even if you’re currently the lowest, you might need to reprice after a few days.
i am undercut EVERYBODY ▸ Can I sell items on side accounts? TL;DR: NO. YOU ARE NOT PERMITTED TO SELL ITEMS ON YOUR SIDE ACCOUNT.
Neopets Editorial – Issue 701 | Question 3 [link] Hi! *surrounds you with meepits* I was wondering… if somebody restocks an items on their main, can they sell it on their side? I figured it would be all right since they didn’t restock on their side, but I wanted to check. Thanks! *cages up meepits again* ~ joy3111 Hi, let’s not get crazy here, okay? Good Meepits. Now, on to your question! No, you cannot sell items on your side account, even if you bought them on your main. You are not allowed to do anything that earns Neopoints on your side accounts, so selling items from a side is not allowed.
▸ I got shop banned on my main. Can I restock on side accounts? TL;DR: NO. YOU WILL BE FROZEN FOR RESTOCKING ON SIDE ACCOUNTS.
Neopets Editorial – Issue 221 | Question 2 [link] Let’s say you get restock banned on your main account. Can you use a side account to restock and transfer the items to your main accounts, as long as you don’t get freebies or play games? ~ xo_dearjamie Umm, no. You’re restock banned for a reason. Using another account to bypass that ban is cheating. You’ll have to wait until it’s over before you can restock again.
You just have one shot at this pretty sword!
▸ Am I allowed to block certain junk items/item images from appearing on my screen in order to make it easier to see profitable items? TL;DR: NO. THAT IS CONSIDERED CHEATING.
Neopets Editorial – Issue 275 | Question 10 [link] I have recently noticed many restockers get iced. When restocking if you have JS disabled is that considered cheating? ~zlqqlz Yes, disabling JS or images while restocking is considered giving yourself an unfair advantage over other players, and is not allowed. Even though it’s a browser function and not a 3rd party cheat, it’s still not allowed. Just like opening 100 window tabs and hitting “refresh all” trying to get Random Events will get you frozen faster than you can say, “Geraptiku” (or figure out how to pronounce it; one or the other). Don’t get paranoid, though! If you don’t know if you disabled JS, you most likely haven’t. This question probably doesn’t apply to 99.87% of you, so don’t fret about it if you have no idea what we’re blithering about here.
Just leave the java(script) alone!
▸ Is there like some sort of order items restock at? Items restock based on their release. You will always see the newer items in the bottom row and the oldest items in the top row.
▸ Do r100s even restock? Theoretically they do, but the method of obtaining the haggle screen bugged. :C
Y’all were gonna yell at me if I didn’t include EEC ▸ Do Shops restock/clear at a certain time? I read that they used to. They used to, but shops do not restock nor clear at specific times anymore.
▸ If I buy out a shop, will it restock faster? No, you’ll just end wasting a bunch of NP for junk.
▸ How do I sell items worth over Shop Wizard’s limit? Trading Post (2m max) and Auctions (50m + 50m increment) are there for that.
Heyo howdy! ▸ Does Neopian Inflation is currently at X.XX% mean anything? It factors into the estimated cost a shop stocks at an item at, but since that never changes it doesn’t matter anymore. It’s really just flavour text nowadays.
Neocash (NC) trading is an exciting aspect of Neopets that involves exchanging virtual items purchased with real money. Here’s a comprehensive guide to help you navigate the world of Neocash trading.
Understanding Neocash (NC) Value
GBCs (Gift Box Capsules): These are crucial in NC trading and are typically valued at 200 NC each. They also provide Gift Boxes necessary for sending NC items.
NC Value: Items are often valued in terms of GBCs (e.g., 2~3). Understanding this valuation is essential for fair trades.
Getting Started as a Newbie
Building Inventory: Invest in the NC Mall by buying cookies, dye potions, and GBCs to build a trade-worthy inventory.
1 Cookie = 1 Dye Potion = 1 GBC: This is a general rule in NC trading, making it easier to assess values.
Create a Trade List: Use tools like Dress to Impress (DTI) or JellyNeo (JN) to create a list of items you have for trading.
Making Offers
Advertise on Boards: When seeking specific items, create a board or post on someone’s offer board. The Neopets community is generally helpful to newcomers.
Mailing Offers: You can also contact users through tools like DTI, but be cautious and verify identities to prevent scams.
Trading Etiquette
Offering and Accepting: Follow a step-by-step process: offer, acceptance, sending items, and confirmation. Always double-check usernames to avoid mistakes.
Communication is Key: If issues arise, communicate politely through Neomail. Patience and understanding are crucial in resolving problems.
Understanding Valuations
1~2 Valued Items: Many items are valued at 1~2, indicating their availability in the NC Mall or through NC games. Some are buyable directly in the mall or through games.
Additional Tips
No Obligation: Remember that no one is obligated to trade with you. It’s a mutual process.
Community Friendliness: The Neocash trading community is known for being friendly and generous. Engage with them on the boards or through Reddit.
Dealing with Issues: In case of problems, remain calm, neomail the user, and give it some time. Most issues get resolved amicably.
Buying NC
Be Cautious: Buying NC, especially cards, can have glitches. Use reputable sellers and follow proper channels. GameTimeZone is recommended.
Free Gift Boxes: NC cards come with free Gift Boxes, making them valuable for trading.
Keeping Track
Transaction History: Keep an eye on your Neocash transactions through the Neopets website to manage your spending.
Special Events
Neocash Card Events: Occasionally, Neopets hosts special events related to Neocash Cards, offering bonuses or exclusive items.
User Guides and Resources
Before delving into NC trading, it’s essential to familiarize yourself with user guides and resources available. Some valuable tips and links include:
NC Redemption Issues: Check the guide for troubleshooting NC redemption issues. This ensures a smooth experience when acquiring NC items.
JellyNeo’s Item Database: Understand NC items’ origins and availability, whether from mystery capsules, site events, or the NC Mall. Use this database to enhance your knowledge.
Customization Tools: Utilize customization tools like JellyNeo Wardrobe or Dress to Impress to visualize how items look on your pet. Explore customization guides such as /~Neocash and /~Trendei for expert advice.
Initiating Trades: The Basics
Once you’ve identified the items you want and prepared what you’ll offer in return, initiate trades by creating a board or seeking existing ones:
NC Mall Chat (NCC): Check the front page of the NC Mall Chat for ongoing trades. If you can’t find what you seek, create your own board.
Board Format: Use a clear board title like “Seeking: (Item Name) and More! Offering: (Item Name), GBCs, TL!” to attract relevant offers.
First Post: Repost or include all the items you desire. If you’re new, politely ask users to post offers on the board instead of neomailing.
Negotiation and Etiquette
Master the art of negotiating and maintain proper etiquette throughout the trading process:
Direct Neomail Link: Provide a direct link to your neomail for easy access due to captchas, making communication smoother.
Bumping Boards: As the NC Mall board moves swiftly, be ready to bump your board every 5-10 minutes to stay visible.
Acceptance Protocol: Generally, don’t accept NC items until you’ve sent all requested items. This ensures fairness and avoids potential conflicts.
Public Confirmation: After sending an item, publicly confirm by copying and pasting the delivery message on the board. This shows transparency in the trade.
Three-Way Trades and Reporting
Exercise caution in three-way trades, especially if you’re a beginner. These trades involve potential confusion and require trust among all parties. If issues arise:
Patience is Key: Wait at least 48 hours before reporting a user for non-compliance in a trade. Technical issues and emergencies can happen.
Reporting Protocol: When reporting, include details, links, or screenshots outlining the trade. Avoid making public accusations, as this may lead to consequences.
Quick Tips Recap
Here’s a quick summary of key tips to remember:
Research: Know about items using DTI, JellyNeo, and value guides.
Try Before Trading: Use DTI to try on items and ensure they fit your pet.
Gift Boxes: Confirm you have enough gift boxes for each item you send.
GBC Availability: GBCs are typically available in the last 1-2 weeks of the month.
Board Etiquette: Specify “posts only, please!” to encourage public offers on your board.
