    Ya ^ I just have a 1+ month account and I've been abing in pharm, stamp, and spooky for a while with ~20k on hand, but if I were to try other shops like plushie & book, how much should I have ready to spend?

    I only use igloo, and I have 20k out ..
    but I don't see why you can't have 2mil out while ABing? :] you'll make profit 98% of the items you buy anyways XD

    well I only want to have out as much as I need because there's always the chance of those nasty random events that take large amount of money. I've never gotten one but I've heard of people with millions out have like 10% taken, which is in the 100ks so I don't wanna risk that.

    It matters where you are going to ab at. As for plushie and book, I don't think anything stocks for over 10k in those shops... There may be a couple of r99's that are in the 15k area though. If your going into magic, dm, or bm, I'd suggest bringing about 200k. Also, don't be worried about losing 100k from a random event. I'm sure you'll make more than that in one day.

    I AB in two shops at once, for 130 minutes at a time. Sometimes I'll go for 260 minutes, starting up again once it stops.

    I'll go through 100k in that time, easy. But I make it back the next day. ;)


    It never hurts to have extra out. Things get expensive, and since AU doesn't withdraw automatically (Not that I know. >.>). It's nice to just start the program, and not have to worry about monitoring anything.

    I usually have around 300k out and leave it on overnight. It usually doesn't spend all of it and I would mostly have about 70k left at the least depending on what restocks and what not :)
