    Considering the shop is sold out, I would confirm this. It is NEVER sold out. lol
    "Sorry, we are sold out of everything! We get restocked every eight minutes or so, so please come back soon."

    And based off this "If you're quick"

    Edit:
    Now confirmed, any haunted shop any item. It's random.

    Well this is incredibly annoying... They're always sold out all the time. Anyone get the avatar yet? And how many items did you have to buy? I hope this isn't an avatar that's gonna retire after Halloween. :[

    Well they said "if you're quick"... hopefully that's referring to the speed you need to restock at, and not having to get it before Halloween =/ If you can still get the avatar after Halloween, then things will be much easier 'cause people will leave the shops after some time :D

    Some people on the boards got it with their second item. Others have bought over 8 but still don't have the avatar. May be random, or perhaps those who got it fulfilled some criteria o.x

    I'm on item number 4, still nothing. Getting bored of trying to be honest, I'm not an avid avatar collector or anything so I may just stop soon. I hate regular RSing.. I suck at haggling.

    I had really bad luck to start with.... getting banned almost straight away.

    I've bought 8 items from 3 different shops and still no luck. I'm not sure if I should keep trying other shops or what. It's really quite annoying.

    I got it on my third try for one account and the eight on another
    I stayed in Spooky foods - the items restock in larger quantities making it slightly easier
