Correcting prices
Hello,

How often do you guys check and correct prices at your store? I'm trying to optimize day between correcting prices/serving clients/opening card packs and all other stuff and can't decide how often should I do some of them :/

Thanks for any advices!

The game does not do a good job of explaining this, but the prices of single cards change regularly based on what event your tables are playing. Elemental sleeves, boxes, and battle decks just generally shift in price every now and then. These two sections need to be checked regularly to avoid issues.

Packs, Boxes, Bulk Boxes, and a few other items are pretty consistent in price and never seem to really change.
At first i did it every 3/4 days, but later game i had so many items that i only did it when i'd notice i had barely sold any stock for a few days
every 3-5 days is ok. Also when I see NPCs saying "its a steal" or "too expensive"
Sometimes some items just wont sell though, i had a set of black dice on sale i wanted to just get rid so dropped to 0.01 price, didn't sell after 7 days still lol

If I'm only managing standard event do I have to worry about them? How often do you propose to check and correct prices of those items?

for the card packs i'd just have them set at market +10% and then round it, it'll sit somewhere from 3-4.00 in price and even with fluctuations it'll sell fine

I noticed this too several times my theory is that the game checks your price vs market price and if the difference is too big either way it wont make the customers buy your product.

if youre only managing the standard event youre not making nearly as much money as you could be from the card tables. assuming youre not just on day 5 of course.
I set up my shop, ie stock shelves, open packs, place individual cards on racks, at night after everyone has cleared out. In the morning before I open I go through and set all my prices before hitting the open sign.
There's a mod on NexusMods that will automatically set the prices each day to whatever mark up you desire. I have mine set at market+10%. It also has a button that you can do it yourself if you wish, defaults to F5.

Seriously? Then I need to try it out. Right now I'm on day 84. But I'm tired a little because of restocker stupidity and those prices corrections ;d

Thanks, found it, installed and works as I want. It helps A LOT
Every single morning I go through every single item and adjust prices while my stockers put up the stuff I ordered the night before. They usually finish around the time I'm done adjusting everything. I typically have to adjust 10-15 prices every day.
