XD I'd love to participate, but I'd not have an accurate expense list because each day I stock my inventory with multiples of quest items that I find in the shops, and constantly check back every time I start a quest and it says I don't have all the items. Long ago I learned that novice quest items, especially staff and freaky toys are almost always over-priced in merchant shops, so I stopped buying quest items from merchants (actually there were two good merchants that I used to make daily shop raids on but they seem not to restock any more). I do check on occasion, but seldom are my excursions fruitful. I USED to know all the quest items and was able to keep on top of the quests...now that new things are constantly added to the list it's a crapshoot that clogs my inventory and obliterates my memory (what I have of one anyway). I CAN say that in the old days I'd spend a couple million on intense stocking and then be able to ride a week making 500K a day on total food and toy quests. Now, depending on the weird stocking of shops and the stupid fluctuating prices (whose idea was that anyway?) I make on average 200K a day. I also notice that because of the influx of new items and keeping the same old restock times some quest items don't stock for a very long time, ans quests do have the annoying tendency to go on binges where they'll keep asking for the same item over and over (when you don't have it and nobody else does because it hasn't restocked). There's also the issue of retired items in the quests, but so far that seems to be reduced to the chocolate coated lolly (forget the exact name, know the image well). BUT, since you do the quests every day yourself you already know that. As for egg quests, as a rancher I did them on hard and sometimes resorted to medium or novice when I didn't have something, but as a merchant I get more selling eggs than doing quests with them. Hard egg quest pays 5K an egg regardless of what egg it is. I can charge a bit more because most people who buy them from shops are buying to hatch. OH Yes; need I say if lots more people start doing the quests you will have to restock more items and often, because though I know how much you people hate 'easy' and love 'challenge', making it too hard is just going to kill it.

Sure you can make money on eggs as a merchant by stocking them in your shop and letting them sit. But can you make a 200k per day on those eggs every day of the week? Hmm. Eggs are free. You can do both, and make more! O.O Oh, and if people post what they couldn't find for a fair price, perhaps you could use that to advantage as well! O.O More tuz for yous!

Geonight: XD Yes indeed I can and more, because those eggs are priced to sell and...well, look at my shop. EMPTY. Which reminds me I need to restock......

My rancher shop is almost empty. That's just because I don't stock much in there. :P Just a point. Go make yerself useful and stock decently priced quest items. :P

;( with the large price fluctuation in the shops it's too hard to price things well. I'm not good at math. I'll sell eggs and do whatever quests I can with whatever I have.

Well, I didn't do the whole 'Hard and Novice' thing, so I don't know if I'm still eligible or not, but I'll post anyway, even if it's just as another example of how much you can make. I hope you can keep this incentive contest going for a while, it's a cool idea. I personally think the real way to succeed on here is to learn some kind of balance between making a profit with your shop, with auctions, with quests and games, and all the other ways Res makes it available to fill your virtual pockets. Anyway, here's my earnings: Eggs 1. 932 tu 2. 6,372 tu 3. 10,000 tu 4. 10,000 tu 5. 20,000 tu 6. 10,000 tu 7. 863 tu 8. 825 tu 9. 5,841 tu 10. 20,000 tu Total: 84,833 tu Food 1. 2,351 tu 2. 1,171 tu 3. 8,939 tu 4. 1,522 tu 5. 14,937 tu 6. 10,406 tu 7. 11,787 tu 8. 1,738 tu 9. 9,130 tu 10. 2,116 tu 11. 1,793 tu 12. 15,993 13.2,298 tu 14. 8,937 tu 15. 688 tu 16. 13,307 tu 17. 951 tu 18. 10,189 tu 19. 20,646 tu 20. 10, 498 tu Total: 149,397 tu Toys 1. 1,732 tu 2. 1,103 tu 3. 2,176 tu 4. 1,175 tu 5. 2,773 tu 6. 4,252 tu 7. 550 tu 8. 19, 585 tu 9. 5,360 tu 10. 16, 758 tu 11. 27, 192 tu 12. 10, 174 tu 13. 13, 560 tu 14. 15, 405 tu 15. 12, 626 16. 26, 975 17. 6,136 18. 8,519 19. 2,096 20. 1,545 Total: 179,692 Grand Total: 413,922! -Saint
