Huh? I just buy one, see how much it seels for, and if it is good, I buy. If it is not, I don't buy. It's simple.

Well, of course you can do this, but you said you lost money trying this. If you don't want to have that happen, you can figure out the math beforehand.

Congratkinzulations, everyone!
I may have found a "cure" for knowing when to buy:
I would not say it is worth it unless you are profiting by at least 8KC. If you'd like to know how much you'll profit from an item, use this formula in your head or on a calculator:
f = item in front of PJ
o = original price
p = profit of buying and reselling that item
o - 2*f = p
For those of you who can understand algebra... but it's OK if you can't.
Just as a last tidbit, never buy what's on "sale"! Unless it's 50% off, you'll lose money (and if it IS half off, you won't gain any KC). Just don't do it. Hope to help!

LOL...if you just go slow one step at a time, it will make perfect sense.

At least eight? A day or two ago I bought tons of Baby Blue Beanies. They bought for nine, sold for ten. Yeah, I'm cheap. xD

Ha! Funny, funny. But doesn't that eat up your time as well? You could make more money @ Quizzy's with that kind of a deal.
Well, one upside to that is during fall festival, the leaves are basically smacky-dab in your face - whether you're buying hundreds of them or even in the W-Shop. Gosh, I ♥ the Kinzstyle Outlet.

Yeah. I just bought them for the extra dollar, and to pass the time waiting for leaves when the clubhouse was closed. And Quizzy's was boring in the first place anyway.

Aw, I like going to Quizzy's! Don't be slammin' the bear, he's my friend. But... you do have a point -~- can't wait 'til next hour to see what kind of deal we'll be gettin'!
