Things to invest in

Sat Jan 29, 2005 11:28 pm

Just wondering if anyone has any ideas about anything to invest in? I was thinking maybe a Baby PB as it has been in the tower for quite some time, and they may retire it. Open to any other suggestions.

Hmm, LC prizes? buy them after they hand them out, sometimes its just a tiny profit though...

I'd say paint brushes, because they would retire, and then the demand would go up. I have a collection of retired items, which I am going to sell in a year or so. I think your idea of the buying a baby paint brush is a good idea.

The problem with this is, If i tell you what I try to invest in, that means other will start doing it, making it harder for me to aquire more items and stuff. I guess the only advice I can give is, Pick an item. Check the shop wizard. Sometimes I can find out an avg price, and then get lucky on a cheaper item. Like sometimes item may be avg 5k. Then you find that rare shop carry it for 4k or something.

Thanks for the opinions. :) I was talking more of an ub thing to invest in. If you check my trade lots (if you know my un) you will see an ample collection of unretired pbs. I like to buy them low, sell them for 50k more than I buy them to make decent profits. Also I like dealing w/ HTS. So if all that stuff in my trades sells, then I will have about 3mil. If I was to invest in the baby pb, I think it would skyrocket to about 800k+ (faerie pb in HT =150k, retired =700k). So thats what I'm hoping for.

Invest in codestones and sticky snowballs for wars. Apparently there's another war after the maraqua plot.
Almost guranteed profit.

Also other battledome items such as:
Leaf Shield

The ring may or may not be a good idea. It hard to tell if they will leave such a nice item so cheap, lol.

I dont know, you can get an endless supply of it from the Scratch cards. I think they will stay cheap and inflate a little during the war. Either that or TNT will downgrade it. :(

This will sound odd, but Bag Of Sugar. Once they had a fruit at that Mystery Island food shop selling really cheap (like -100) and then it costed 1k all of a sudden. :O Bag of Sugar costs less than 100 Neopoints too, I believe, so it can't hurt, right?
