    I make my own with Abing ETS buyable items, playing food club, trudys. Too paranoid to buy nps really. Don't have a ton of money because I am on a fixed income so the only time I do make any purchases it is for NC stuff or collection items that are on sale for way less than the 2 bucks per million going rate(I think that is the current rate?).

    I think the rate of $2/1m is too high, especially when the things people want are 10m, 20m, 30m, etc. that's $20+, which is a lot of money for a game like Neopets. I'd much rather spend the way less on a VIP membership to AB and make my own NP while I'm off doing other stuff IRL.

    I used to buy currency in Maplestory many years ago when that game was at it's peak, for $20 you could buy 100m. So yeah, the rate (given the state of Neopets and the economy) doesn't make sense to me. At it's peak I could see that rate, but not these days.

    Edit: Because I know someone will bring it up, yes it's easier to bot Meso than NP, but to make 100m in Neopets isn't that hard either through botting on multiple accounts, so I just don't see 1m NP being worth $2 when you can make over 1m in less than an hour of ABing.

    for whatever reason, i've always thought of buying ETS as safer than ABing. not sure about buying NP. but that would be the main reason i prefer to purchase items/NP over ABing.

    I need to get into this AB thing.... The most illegit thing I risk on my account is rsing with AdBlock.... I can change my IP freely without proxies, just restarting my connection.... Maybe making a lot of accounts is worth? But to ab they need to age to 3 months, right?

    And I feel I'm an average player with my wallet... Let's say, like 5m? It's a joke, I know...... I'm slow at these things

    Haven't bought anything yet, but might consider it sometime in the near future. So far I've earned everything. Is ABing or buying NP items usually considered safer?

    Here's my break down,

    Clraik VIP in CAD, $7/month.

    VPN sub in CAD, $20/month. Can be had for cheaper, but I like the one I use after trying the cheaper ones.

    I've purchased shells from Clraik, which is a one time fee. Can't really factor that in as a monthly sub, but over the many months of use I get out of them it comes out to what I would assume is cents/month. Typically I make 30m~40m/month and I sell everything I get at half price, so if you have more patience than I do that's 60m~80m/month. If you were to buy NP at the rate of $2/1m, that comes out to a minimum of $60/month to $160/month, which is insane. If you've already got a VIP sub and use Stealth, invest a bit more for a VPN, some shells, and go nuts. Way cheaper, way easier, and way more bang for your buck.
