    Stocks might be a good idea also. For items I would say....paintbrushes/morphing potions. And also maybe some faeire related items that could retire ofter this erm...."plot" thing.

    I agree with these stamps. They're going to rise pretty much no matter what, unless TNT decides to do a cruddy thing and re-release them which I highly doubt they will.

    Yep, all of them are retired. They were all given away from plots, the altador cup, and various site events.

    Yup.. pretty much. Only given out in set numbers. Where as ones that were restockable generally have alot more floating around.

    They're worth more because once a stamp collector comes around and puts one of these stamps in their albums, it's gone for good. Which will slowly decrease the number of stamps in circulation which will increase their price. And, if an avatar comes out for any of these album pages, the prices will only further sky rocket.

    I'd say stamps or rare books if you plan on keeping them for a long period of time.

    1. They will increase in value
    2. Chance of being retired.

    I'd invest In the Sea Shells and Scarabs. I'm sure TnT will make Avatars for the both in the near future and they'll go way up in price

    Does anyone actually AB in the shell shop? Every time I go there the shop is always empty :/
    I will start AB'ing there to get the more expensive shells but does anyone know if the shop restocks frequently?
