Is it just me, or does this happen to all ABers?

    So ive been using Acheteur Ultime for ABing... Im currently only ABing in the Magic Shop, and so it seemed like my first account would successfully buy "similar" potions... Brown Origen, Shadow Ruki, Blue Lupe, etc (Ones thats sold for 100k-300k). After a few buys on that, i transferred to my main and closed the account...

    With a new proxy i started ABing on a new account. this account seemed to only get higher end potions like Plushie Bruce, Plushie Grarrl, Blue Jetsam, ones that basically sold for 600k upwards (except two that i only made 150k off of). I repeated the process, transferred these to my main and closed the account, started a new proxy and a new account.

    This account hasn't gotten me anything, and i've had it running various times of the day, a couple hours at a time. (My mornings around 9am seemed to be good as well as my evenings around 5pm, so i would have it on then, for sure) But I haven't gotten ANYTHING. It restocks plenty but There's no attempts for anything!

    Is it just my imagination, or is it because of different accounts?
    I dont think it's because it's the weekend, because last weekend I got 3-4 potions in one session of ABing!

    Anyone know what's up? Or am i just nuts?

    I think it's just luck or maybe you're doing something else with your computer right now so you ABer is running slightly slower.

    some of my sides never get anything good but others always get good things..

    Probably just luck cause I only use one account and that happens once in a while. I'll get a bunch of restocks and grab some good items and other days it'll catch nothing the whole day.

    My Ab always works well, on any account. Maybe there's a problem in yours...for example, incorrect settings?

    Maybe your account is underaged? Or it might not be working.

    I use Igloo AB, this happens sometimes, but with the Igloo you can only buy so many items a day.

    There's a minimum age to purchase stuff?!
    This could be my problem. Whats the account age requirement?

    I'm pretty sure you have to have a 4 monther to see any unbuyables. Theres a bunch of detailed guides on everything autobuying in the guides section :]

    Yep, sure can. $1USD = 10 Forum Cash, if i'm not mistaken.
    the AU goes for 500 points ($50 USD) but had an outright way (it might still have it?) to buy it for $25 flat, not using any forum cash.

    Check if the proxy is working correctly.
