    I was wondering how often the smugglers cove restocks. I have refreshed about every half an hour but I never find anything there. Has any ever bought anything there??

    No its like a sale where all woman are waiting for it to be opened... it restocks once in a few months when tnt puts a item in it with a stock of 120 or something like that. its announced in the news. and usually bought out very fast, that item retires then. so just like women at a sale, this cave gets sold out fast, and only restocks once in a few months. you pay with dubloons.

    I assume then, that items from there are supersupersuper expensive.

    Every time I've ever been by there, it was empty. But I don't have any dubloons anyway.

    I remember once, I saw an item JUST as it was posted in the news, it was around 200 dubloons. Of course I didn't have that much, only 10 dubloons so I couldn't get it :p Sold out within 2 minutes.

    But the thing is, is that the Cove restocks randomly, and if you refresh too many times, you are banned form it for an hour.

    Oh, where does it tell you when it has restocked? Does it say it on the front page of the Cove?

    I wouldn't hold your breath!
    It hardly restocks and it is pretty dear and people are all over it when it does.

    it doesn't stock unless a new item comes out...for example a new attack pea is released...only 100 of them will stock(or maybe 120 i'm not sure) and they will stock about once each hour...after the 100 or 120 stock it will never stock again!

    also, when there are less than 100 SuAP in neo, it restocks the ammount needed to get 100 back in neo.

    There is less that 100 when:

    Phant Devil Steals
    When you are iced.

    Cool I didn't know that. Problem is that I wouldn't want to stay in the Cove all day for it to "possibly" happen.

    I've only seen it restock once, it was a while ago. I tried to buy a Pirate Jelly, but I was a couple dubloons short.

    if 5 people get frozen with a suap it doesn't restock again. TnT have said that in the Neopian Times. So the amount of SuAP just keeps getting lower
