For a quick turnover, what until the tenth, and buy a shit ton of that months MC letters, sell them on the 15th. Should net atleast 5k profit per, but usually around 20k.

There's really nothing to invest in at the 50k mark.
Let alone anything with a risk.

Screen kings are 'chance shit'.
Way to be consistent, bromeo.

Screen Kings are this months Chance Items.
They'll inflate slowly, but going by the rest of the year, too slowly to be worth anything unless bought in huge numbers.

Hmm. I should find/make a bot for that...

That was my only quote</3

Anyway, should be easy. Just make it watch the computers clock, log on on the tenth to snatch up a number of letters set by the user, and sit back until the 15th, and sell.

Lol, not that complicated. I was just meaning a bulk buyer bot. There used to be one around.

I'd pay for the bot I suggested.

Js.
(even though I have no money at all)

Bulk buying shouldn't be hard.

I'd probably shit my pants trying to make it, I'm not that good.
#12
Hm, I wonder what are the chances of Autumn Glories, reaching 60k by fall. xD
They don't seem overly popular, and their raise in price haven't been very dramatic. o:
But hopefully, it'll reach your estimated value by the time you hope for so that you may make a hefty profit. c:

As for me, I'm horrible when I comes to hoarding things and waiting for them to raise in price. > A>;
I always get too impatient, and wouldn't be able to stand seeing those items in my inventory. o xo;

If you check out thee graphs in the marketplace, last fall the skyrocketed, as well as the year before (although that year is not shown).

It's one of the few leafy items that are fall-themed.

I suggest investing Let is snow's they're around 229kish and usually bounce to about 550k come winter.
Also already invested in a few autumn glories back when they were 28k.

I missed the shot at Let It Snow's a few years ago.
They were like, 100k each, and shot to 500k for the first time.
Shit sucked.
#16
Just a quick update:
Autumn Glory is going up, but I fear it may be because of this thread.
July 2011 Sealed Chance has stabilized, and seems to be ready to rise
Snow Maiden has an LBP of 16k, so I'm gonna hold a little longer to see if I can get more out of them.

Same. I was really pissed I didn't for see it until now.
Seasonal items seem to be the way to go.
Along with halloween items. They always jump in price.
