Expensive Item vs No Item

[Bc2d15]

So I've been trying to think of a good way to reduce the stocking time. I know that certain Items will give a better profit than others, so I was going to test the difference between over priced items and customers not finding an item. I think I will lose more money by over pricing an item, Since that means I spent the money on it and it still didn't sell, compared to someone not finding cakes but I'm not spending time stocking those. I hope I don't go broke too fast.

So my question for any and all would be, What would save time and still be profitable? Over pricing every item or only stocking certain items.

I overprice everything and they still buy it only a few picky ones won't and I make a ton, plus less stocking time cuz people are buying a variety of items so it's easier to stock in between customers the products getting low, I usually round up or do about 50 cents higher, sometimes a dollar, if the price goes up on the product you can get away with 1-2 dollars over base price.

yeah, the past few days haven't saved me much stock time, I'm going to try and over price them a bit more. It's certainly worth pricing it up more than I have been.

You lose 1 store xp if they cannot find an item or if the item is too expensive. So this is not a good tactic if you want to level up quickly.

No, you lose 1 SP if they cannot find something, or if everything in their list is too overpriced/not available they leave without getting ANYTHING. If they want 6 things, and you have everything but they only buy 1 cause its too expensive for everything else, you get 5 SP from their checkout. Having an item in stock but overpriced incurs NO penalty other than not making the money off selling it.

for the last hour, I've just allowed my store to empty as I've put away every shelf and fridge or freezer that became bare. I even moved product to other shelves to empty them quicker. through the 6 days that passed, I did not go negative in points once. my store was profitable through each day as well. If I can pass 6 days in 1 hour, instead of playing 2 days (hopefully) in that hour, yeah buddy. I'm gonna go with a slow Store point grind so i can afford other items to sell quicker.
