I'm not saying I want 3min restocks, but having to wait 45 mins for a restock in a popular shop such as food is ridiculous. I'm in at least 6 shops, so no I'm not going to add anymore.

subeta's got a pretty small active community, that seems a reasonable amount of time if restocking is going to be profitable. It's probably already too late for older items, but lots of new items are staying very lucrative for a loong period of time, it's rather nice.

I've not experienced those time waits but that length is ridiculous. What time of day are you restocking? Food is one of my shops but I'm normally in there between 10am-6pm sub time. Wait times have been running 10 or so minutes for me.

I don't agree with your first point so we can agree to disagree, but I understand what you're saying about older items. However, just because it has a high price does not mean people would be willing to pay that. Why restock when there is no demand because of too high prices?

Hi! It varies for me, sometimes 7am to late afternoon, but mostly evening to late night. It's not always that bad, but at least once a day there are incredibly long strecthes.

Can't speak to that time of day bc I'm usually pooped by then lol. I've found that some people will pay the high price if an item is needed for certain quests or item hunt. I stock the items at the going rate and then just ride down to the "normal" price as things fall. Best thing is to keep stocking the most asked for quest items. They may not be high returns but the volume more than makes up for that. Most of my income comes from basic items and the extras are just gravy. Gotta admit it is still better than Neo lol. Hopefully you will find a rhythm that works for you soon. You can always hit me up if you need help etc. I know I've been mia mostly but I eventually get around. :)

yea sometimes the 30+ minute restock times can get annoying. I restock a bit when I can and what I found makes it less aggravating is instead of having x amount of tabs open in shops just go shop by shop and check back regularly on the ones you like. So say I may do books -> weapons -> defense -> books -> food -> candy -> weapons and so on. Depending on what sell range you're going for you can get a lot of items like that even if you skip the shops that are taking forever to restock. Shaman has a good point too - in my experience quest items are pretty much a guaranteed sale, and if you have a GA you don't even have to bother repricing unless you want to knock off an sP or too for faster sales hah

Apocalyptic Apothecary Restocked 47 minutes ago

This does seem excessive. Is something wrong with it again, or is this a fluke?

EDIT: It finally restocked at 50 minutes, but nothing actually stocked.

Pointy Antlers Rarity: Mundane (27) 99k sP

Rarity: Normal (65) How to Build Sand Castles 350k sp

Rarity: Normal (55) Fur Dos....and Donts. 400k sp

Self explanatory.

I know we had a library weekend quest, but the price of many books Alex asks for (including normals, commons, and even this mundane one) are rivaling super rare books.

What's the point of having rarities below normal if normal isn't normal?

There is something weird about the books Alexander asks for. I know it's been brought up that Library quests don't seem to ask for all restocking books, and while Keith has said this isn't the case, from my anecdotal evidence it feels like he does ask for the same books time and time again and ignores certain books which should be expensive given their rarity - such as Ancient Chai Journal and Ancient Sheeta Markings.

I completely agree, I RS book and I notice the price fluctuations especially after Alexander is WSQ for example r97 - A Guide to Minions II is 87k and restocks 1 in stock maybe once or twice a day that I see so over 6 hours but r67 - Useful Steps is 375k restocks 3 in stock each time probably every 3rd restock. Alexander never asks for A Guide to Minons II but I usually get asked for Useful Steps at least once a weekend. Its the same with Violin I and II from Music low raritys but one is 100k-ish and the other is 40k.

Candy Shack Restocked 38 minutes ago

Toy Box Restocked 35 minutes ago

4 items stocked in Defend and Conquer. 1 item stocked in Weapons Warehouse.

Library quest is now asking for two books. This isn't likely to help already overinflated book prices much. Fixing the books it asks for is great but can he ask for one item until prices calm down?

- I'm pretty sure the long wait times are being exacerbated by some users who are buying up entire shops in the meantime, that's why we seem to be getting so many shops that are empty. I've noticed it in weapons, defend, spells, rathskeller and books at different times.

Library quests have felt a lot better for me over the past couple of days , but I'll keep an eye on it! :) Almost all his requests were sub 20k and he hasn't asked for any repeats, either, which was refreshing.

I'm getting just as many repeats on library quests, but different books. Prices are reflecting this eg: fondant covered cake, te bk wiut mle, breeding worms...

Get Mugged! Restocked 39 minutes ago (and counting...)

One of the few shops that has restockables for something of a restocking competition. With 1,349 users online.

:(

ETA: Get Mugged! Restocked 43 minutes ago

Edit : Get Mugged! Restocked 50 minutes ago

And still counting. I gotta go to the grocery store, but I was trying to wait out the next restock. I give up. :P

Every time this post is the first thing on the forum page, I laugh now.

I didn't get be online yesterday but those wait times are ridiculous with that many users online and in a shop that is part of an event.
