    Does resizing your shop ever peak at a certain size? Mine is a 30 I think and it costs 6000 to upgrade... i see ppl with size 1000... duz this mean that theyve paid 100s of millions to get their shop this size?

    Yes and no.

    Some will have, but back in the earlier days it cost way less than it does now to increase your shop size. Less than half of the cost now in fact. So, the older accounts you see with huge shops have spent a lot on upgrading, but not as much as you would now have to spend to get your shop to that size.

    I have no idea what you mean about 'peaking'. Do you mean is there a point where the cost stops increasing when you expand? If so, then no. Everytime you upgrade, the cost increases.

    They don't really pay hundred's of millions to resize. Probably just around a few million to actually increase it to 1000. Plus those malls get more profit a day than money they spend to upgrade. Its a small matter for them.

    I don't get it. Everyone has the SW, right ? So why would people spend more ?

    Only thing I can think of a Faerie Quest.

    Some is due to the faerie quest but some people who collects items such as stamps, cards petpets, etc. they get to view mostly all of the collection in malls. Its faster and they know what they may be missing so why bother checking SW for each one when its right there.

    resizing means increasing the shop size. Each resize allows you to put 5 more items into the shop so for eg a size 30 shop will allow you to put 150 items in it at any one time.

    Malls target noobs who just started. They don't know easy service like SW at times. And they probably panic sometimes when they cant use the SW during quest. :D

    I used to be a maller until my legit account got iced. I had a size 755 shop and I spent about 55 mill on my shop. We basically target noobs who dont know how to use the sw or need to do a quest and we can make about 200-300k off them a day.
