    Is it a good idea to wiz snipe lab pieces? I just legitly found a 105k piece in a shop for 5k.
    Has anyone tried doing this, and if so, did you make any money?

    Still though, if you set it to buy ones 5k and lower, you're still getting double what you paid, and you have a chance of getting ubs.

    I mean, if you get lucky, you can make money, but now, a lot of the map pieces have gone down in value. If you get one for 5k, it is probably going to be a cheaper piece of the map, etc.

    no the prices varie too much.
    As somebody could put a 200k piece in at 99k but you wouldnt get it because you have a limit of 5k to prevent buying cheap pieces.

    I've been saying since maps were first introduced on neopets. They need to add numbers to the peices. It's not like there's this big mystery as to what order they go in. WC maps have numbers, it makes it a heck of a lot easier. TNT's messed up before with giving two items the same name, but 9 items of the same name, varying between 200k and 10k? Seems a bit ridiculous to me =/

    If TNT would get off their lazy asses and make some changes for the better on the site, instead of just being interested in NC mall crap, maybe good players like us wouldn't get so bored with the game that we cheat.

    I think they are doing this on purpose to "spice" up the quest (even though it's more annoying for everyone). Anyways prices have always been varying and even more since they've been giving pieces away through key quest.
