    I had one of the most complete and 100% accurate Item Databases built a couple of years ago. It contains item's you've never even heard of.
    I'll see if I can fish up the files over the next few days.

    Would be nice if it had Cap values on NC Items. I know that's a bit harder but to have a centralized db with all cap values that's easier to search than the multiple petpages that are slow and split up. Just an thought though .

    Personally, we all miss IDB

    If you'll make one, try to put what items does. Like "This potion will change your neopets color to a random one"

    "This weapon does X air icons, blocks X dark icons", etc.

    Thins like that

    Special functions an item has like DA said would be great. If it's something like a goodie bag, perhaps what the contents (or possible contents) are, if it's a weapon the icons it deals / defends / how much it heals etc.

    for wearable items, a search function that allows you to search by location the item is worn (such as hat, wings, gloves, background, etc)

    Let me tell you the overall plan:

    1. I give joe db access and he can use it for clraik and allow his bots to send me data.
    2. I make a fan site for neopets that looks like a legit site with item db and statistics on dailys , information on items ect.
    3. On the fan site I allow people to submit there own info.
    4. I create a server purely for the indexing of unkown info and refreshing information , these accounts do not cheat they just index prices.
    5. I launch 4 np gen servers with 50 accounts running on each for collectin statistics on dialys and special items , ab items ect , AAA items ect ect.

    If all these come together , it will be a very good database .

    For special items I can detect:
    Prizes from every daily / statistics on win ratio % and how much each item drops / is the daily profitable ect
    If item is needed for a quest ect
    Indexing of smuglers cove items when seen


    Goodie bags and groups of items , ab list maker ect will be added keep the ideas coming.

    I would love constant prices, USD value and NP value, Also an update for what the item sold for last on Neo and on here
    I like the HTS/ETS idea, and a thing to say if its an active/retired item. more suggestions will come, just completely spaced them off

    Rare, mind sending me an .SQL of your item database structure? Content not required, can be included if you wish

    USD value is impossible unless you state a price per million. But if you do that, there won't be discount for bulk purchases such SuaP so I'd discard that idea. IMO, it's a bad idea.

    Honestly all these suggestions imo will take too much labor, all you need is a way to comb all prices for items over time in an automated fashion and then you're golden. Start from there, since that's what's going to make yours an improvement over JN's.
