    Semi-Autobuying Method

    I was recommended to make this a guide, so here it is!

    Here is my method of Semi-Autobuying
    (aka Semi-Automated Restocking, all done within your browser!)

    I prefer to do this over the usual method of using Adblock to hide all the images you don't want to buy.
    This keeps the images intact, but also makes what you want way more apparent by hiding the junk items.

    First, before you do anything on this list, you will need to install (you need an account to see links).
    (you can also use Greasemonkey, but Tampermonkey seems to work with more scripts on this site.)


    UPDATE October 2019:
    I've created a script that allows you to skip a bunch of steps detailed in my original guide!
    I will keep the original guide for archival purposes, but offer an updated one here for those that want to skip some previous steps!

    ⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻

    ★ Step 5 ★

    Add your list to your Main Shop Item Filter Script inside the big text box provided inside of the shop.

    Example:

    Press save after adding all the items you want to look for.

    ⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻

    ★ Step 6 ★

    Install the (you need an account to see links) script
    (This will ALSO solve the captcha, unless you specify it not to)

    ⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻


    ★ Step 7 ★

    Refresh like a madman until it restocks, and click on the item you want.


    There it is!

    NOTE: An empty shop and a fully filtered shop look visually different!
    An empty shop will still say that it's out of stock. A totally filtered shop will look blank:




    NOTE: ALL auto-buying or use of scripts on-site carries the risk of being frozen permanently
    I am not responsible for loss of your account, and neither are any of the script authors.

    Summary of the above:


    Please note that the sections where Greasemonkey/Tampermonkey scripts I have linked to are visible to VIP, clraik, or higher members!
    Make a few posts, make some friends, and get auto-buying!

    Original Guide:

    ⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻

    ★ Step 5 ★

    Format your list (you need an account to see links) (OR (you need an account to see links)) with the prefix being " and the suffix being ",

    Example:

    (The last item in your list on the Text Highlighter script must have the final comma removed!)

    ⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻

    ★ Step 6 ★

    Add your newly formatted list(s) to your Main Shop Text Highlighter Script under the appropriate color(s).

    Example:

    Make sure to save after adding your lists.

    ⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻

    ★ Step 7 ★

    Install the (you need an account to see links) script
    (This will ALSO solve the captcha, unless you specify it not to)

    ⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻

    ★ Step 8 ★

    Go to the shop you want to buy items in on Neopets.

    ⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻

    ★ Step 9 ★

    Refresh like a madman until it restocks, and click on the item you want.


    There it is!

    You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Nerkmid again.

    Nice guide!!!

    +repped , great guide

    Just a quick question, is there anyway for TNT to know you are using a script? Because if there isn't this is virtually risk free right?

    So, I don't know what sort of data your browser (and any add-ons you have on the browser) actually sends to the Neopets servers, but as far as I know they can't actually see that you are using these scripts, because all the changes are on YOUR end, and not Neopets while also being on the same browser you use to look at the boards/pets/etc. I wouldn't say it's 100% risk free, though, because you will still be able to make many fast restocks with very few misses, and that could flag your account as doing something illegitimate, even if TNT can't directly see what you're doing. People using auto-refreshers have been banned in the past, but this is less automated and still requires some user input.

    i've been using this and it worked amazing for me, thanks so much for the guild. it worked for me for a couple weeks with Firefox and Greasemonkey for the autohaggler (couldnt get that working on chrome for some reason), and Tampermonkey for the Main Shop Text Highlighter.... but now the text highlighter has stopped working for me for some reason. Is there an item limit or code limit on TM?

    oof nevermind, i got it working again. i was constantly adding to the list and there was one period where a comma was needed. my bad.

    Thank you for clearly writing this!!! I've been using this kind of method for months now, but my original sites I used to clean up my items and add the pre-/suf- fixes to broke I am so happy to have something easy at hand to refer to if I ever need to again!!!

    You’re correct in this. Tnt can’t see what you’re running, but we’ve all experienced their “freeze first, ask later” policies. This essentially makes nothing you do risk free.

    Thanks for the guide! However I recommend using (you need an account to see links) for the prefixes and suffixes instead. The layout gives eye cancer but it has no limit.

    Hey, I realise this is an old post, but I just tried to use this script, however I can't see a text box inside the shop page to add my list of items?
    The script is enabled on tampermonkey, and I'm using FF. The jellyneo script works fine, however.
