Stalk Market
« on: December 19, 2005, 03:32:38 AM »
So, I've heard that some Nooks' have been spotted offering as much as 300+ bells per turnip!  So I figure we should have a Stalk Market thread...  If your Nooks' ever offers over 100 bells per turnip, you should post here so we can all come to your town and sell.

300 bells! Holy shmit!

I made 60,000 from Turnips the other day, it was Sunday in my town and Saturday in KNs town (wild world indeed), and I was buying as much as I could for 100 and selling them for 122, made a few trips there and back.

Good thread idea!

300 bells O_O

I didn't buy fromJoan yesterday cuz I was low on cash and they were 122...='(

Also, has anyone else experienced Nook's 50% off sale?  It happened just the other day, I cleared the place out.  I'm not sure, but I think it's a clearance sale before he renovated, because it seemed to be the final hour before the upgrade to Nookington's began.  This might not be the case though, because that would mean he'd only have that sale three times in the whole game, and that doesn't make too much sense...

Wait, you can sell white turnips at a friends shop??

That's a pretty big exploitable loophole.

Mine is currently buying them for 195 bells, if anyone is interested.

I'm confused.  Do you all live in the same place, or how do you visit each other's towns to sell turnips?

You can visit Nook in anybody's town either wifi or ds to ds.  Which means you can buy or sell things to a friends Nook if your Nook is closed, which includes turnips.  So if someone else's Nook is buying turnips at +100 bells, well then you can run to your friends Nook and make a wise stalk trade!

Id like to visit one of y'alls towns just for fun if you dont mind.  I have yet to visit a town online and I just wanna see what its like, maybe score some foreign fruit and see stuff at nooks.  My FC and such is in my profile.  Ill bring something if y'all want but I dont have any fruit right now (save for some turnips).

I sold all of my ~4000 turnips for 166 bells each at 10 AM, then logged in during the afternoon and Nook was buying them for 473 each .  I didn't realize he could change his price in the middle of the day.  Anyways, he's still selling them for 473 and it's 6:30 for me, so if anyone wants to visit my town  in the next few hours and sell turnips my friend code is 5240-4906-0440.  If someone does visit, all I want in return is for someone to buy an item from Nook so he can upgrade.

Good price, damn seems I missed out.

Is there anything special about your town that gets you high turnip prices so often?

I think the price changes right around noon (not verified, but seems like a logical transition).  In fact the price in the morning might be the same as the previous evening, but I'm not entirely sure.
