Hello there, I recently came back to neopets (well it helps to procrastinate with your HSC on your back) and I realised I have roughly 260 items, half of which are retired ones. In my childhood days I used to dump everything that wasn't food in there because I was terrified of the Pant Devil...once he stole a piece of food from me, and I was mortified (hey come on I was only eleven)!
Anyhow, I was wondering if anybody else was a compulsive hoarder of items?
And yeah, I was wondering whether I should sell my utility fish. They're going at 20, 000NP each in the shop wizard, and I have about five of them. Or, for that matter, any other retired items. Does anybody see inflation helping anytime soon?

Inflation is an item by item thing. The retired items that will go up the most in price are the ones that get used up -- food (except Advent Calendar stuff which is so cheap that going to 500 NP is a huge jump) and books. I think books go up the most -- people trying for the trophy have to read as many as possible. But retired foods aren't gourmet, so they don't help with that trophy.
Me, I save 1 of everything -- that's my favorite thing to do on Neopets. And I LOVE Utility Fish. I wish they would create more of them.

Hi, Just chimming in here. I have been on neopets for one year now, and I am a career packrat. I currently hold 2,698 items in my SDB. I love to collect retired food items and I have recently started buying more books.

Utility fish are just items, they don't actually do anything. They are some of the few items in Neopia that do, however, move.
Rosenberg, heh, you got nothing on Poeia... She is really high up there. What are you on now Poeia?

Check my sig -- I'm keeping it pretty accurate. I should hit 10,000 sometime this summer.
The problem is that I have too much going on in my real life -- haven't been earning many neopoints. That's slowing me down a lot.
