This is just a general information on buying ap and buying items in the Item Mall. Now these are only guidelines, not rules. This is what works for me and hopefully give you some insight on how to buy ap and how to buy items more effectively also. Remember, buy what you want, not what I say now, Your ap.

NOTE: Prices may change now for items sold. Bonus items now sold in the web and no more online bonus sales. Buying items is now done thru the web mall but the principles still apply whether buying from the Item Mall or the Web Item Mall. Now they can have more specials and promotions then before.

Going to the Item Mall

You click HOMEPAGE, then LOG IN, then click STORE. You will be shown the different options on how to buy ap. You just need to click and explore to see what they all give.

Here is the trick now. When you first buy ap, you get a 35% first time buyer's bonus. Then in addition to the regular 5% to 50% ap bonus that may be given. You always get a minimum 15% ap bonus. If you are patient you can wait till the 50% ap bonus is given to buy ap now. I have found that around USA holidays that these 50% bonuses are given.

Once you have made your first purchase of ap, then it is just a matter of buying ap when you want. If you plan to buy $50 and the bonus is only 15%, then I would wait. Just buy the minimum that you need. But then the bonuses vary so that at $50 you may get 15% then at $10 it is only 5%. They vary and there is no way for me to say when the bonus ap will go up.

So when you plan to buy, check in all the time and try to get your money's worth when buying ap.

BUYING ITEMS FROM THE ITEM MALL

At the bottom right of your window in Last Chaos, you will click SHOP. This will give you the Item Mall window with all the items sold. The first window that comes up is the Specials for that week. You must familiarize yourself with the items, so you will know what to buy. The savings listed are if you were to buy them in a single unit, so do not let the prices confuse you now. That is why you should be familiar with the items sold.

OPENING YOUR BOXES

This is a list of the boxes and what to do to open each. I will refine the notes here till they are complete.

If you have your weight maxed out, you can get the items that weight at 0 weight. Mostly the scrolls. In the Experience boxes I have no use for the Experience elixirs and so fourth. The following is what you may get with max weight for each box now. Items listed in Orange are what you get when weight is at max. Then the other items will be listed in green.
Even if you do not have ap, it is good to look through them and read what each item does. I have had people ask what an item does and I tell them to go look in the Item Mall.

Now if you got ap, here is how to make EASY money, lol. Being patient is very important. LC will have items at 100% rebate at times. What "rebate" means is getting money back. So 100% rebate means that if you purchase their package that they announce for the 100% rebate, then anywhere from 2-4 weeks, you will get that ap back into your account. So in a way, you are getting that item for free. If you buy a packaged things are not going as planned.
