Is it just me or did they change the price range we can haggle at as well? I swear it got smaller. It took me three tries to buy an item. I can't believe I actually got it.

Many probably have noticed that on the "Price Changes" page all the *ahem*... recent price changes are from 2002?
"Oooh, Red Bandana went down by 1 neopoint in 05/03/2002. Better go restockin'!"

It's still on like one of the most important link lists in Neopets. xD Waah.

This is ludicrous. Now people with slower connections and beginning restockers have all been screwed over by this move. Not to mention what people have been saying this whole time- major inflation, much smaller profit-to-cost ratio, and generally being stomped on by the expert restockers. This makes chocolate pretty much worthless.

Not only that, but those who play games are now close to being out of the picture if it costs them 30k for a piece of chocolate. Way to go, TNT. I'm hardly for socialism, but the gap between the rich and the poor is guaranteed to become truly massive UNLESS THEY REMOVE THE 1,000 NP LIMIT FOR GAMES.

I wonder who the genius was that came up with this BS...

That's why you should always try to bid the exact price. Any item which requires you to haggle to make a profit out of it is pointless restocking, IMO.

I always do an easier to enter combination that's close enough. Grr. This is going to slow me down.

I always offer more than the item price - so I'm guaranteed to have my offer accepted if I'm quick enough.

I restock at the Igloo so I can't really say anything 9_9; No haggling there.
