    So I realized that the abber I use was overpricing my items (my fault for not checking the settings) so today I wanted to cut everything down by 40%

    And I just got this neomail

    Thank you!

    [Report Message] Hi, normally I don't write people but this time I figured why not. Anyway, just wanted to say thanks for your great shop prices as I have completed several of my smaller "collections" that I haven't had the extra nps to finish. Of course, I've bought bunches of other things I didn't need and I am depleteing my poor bank account, but who cares. Anyway, sorry to bother you. As you know, your prices are great (awesome) and I just wanted to say thanks for that. Have a nice day, I gotta get back to your shop so I don't miss anything. LOL!


    I laughed, and even though all the items in my shop are illegit, it made me feel like a good person on the inside :D

    Rofl, at one point I lowered my prices by 75% because I thought it was the other way around, MAN I was so confused how all of my items suddenly dissapeared so fast xD I also got neomails asking me to stock up NAO and stuff, that's when I realized it :p It also made me feel good, because it didn't really make me loose that much since it was just choco and books :p
    But that was a nice neomail actually ;D

    Not telling because you'll just be jealous psshh..
    Lol I sent one of those before.
    I had a school supplies gallery, and I found virtually /everything/ I needed in one shop. They were all like 80% less than the supposed price ;D The person even thanked me for buying it and sent me some UB School Stuff (I spent over 800k in that shop)

    Those are sweet stories guys :)
    And SWEET BABY JESUS if you ever need to clear out your shop 40% is the way to go...(maybe I should've went to 30%)
    I had around 600 items and now down to 90 lawl.

    Good idea actually, put tons of stuff in for heaps lower prices, then when you go to restock, wack a few cheap ones in, along with a few normal or overpriced items. Hopefully people buy them without checking the prices ;)

    Thats a good thought, but I just did it to clear out all the old stuff, I got tired of selling what I sold and want to experiment in a couple of different shops and have a fresh stock up :)
