Thanks for setting this up, it's a great idea.
Mine are down to 107 from 139 last night with an expected peak of 190 this week :rolleyes:0 -

I'm up at 477 at the moment but can't get my Switch online while in work. If it's still high when I get home, I'll open the gates.
Assuming you're not time travelling and it's morning time in your game, that price will only last until noon. It resets after that and the new price lasts until Nook closes at 10pm.Only way they can go then is up.
Indeed. But I'm happy out with tbahh's price yesterday, I just wanted something close to 350, so 421 was more than enough for me. 0 -

So can someone explain turnips to me? I will be buying them tomorrow for the first time. If I have read it correctly the price they are selling for is the price I can buy them on any island but when I go to sell them the price differs depending on where I go. Is that correct?
In a nutshell yes.
Daisy Mae will appear on your island between 5am and 12 noon (so set your alarm if need be ). She will sell you as many as you want at a certain price. If you wanted to, you could of course buy them from her on someone else’s island if she had a lower price there. But multiple flights back and forth can be a pain.
From Monday until Saturday, Timmy and Tommy in Nooks Cranny will buy them off you. There are two different prices each day, from 9am til noon and from noon til 10pm when they close. Again you’re free to sell them on someone else’s island if they get a better price and are willing to open up their island. And that’s pretty much it.
There are various websites out there that help you track your prices and predict whether you’re likely to see an increase or not. Also websites where you can join queues to fly to their island and sell, usually for a fee.
Most times at least one person on boards gets a good price and is decent enough not to charge a fee. 0 -

Thank you so much! For some reason i thought the buy price was the same no matter where you went. Cheers 0 -

How much do he invest in turnips?
I’ve got 170k, and getting close to paying off a mortgage repayment, but wondering if I should go in heavy on my first turnips tomorrow morning.
Damn this turned out to be a long post so apologies in advance!
If that was me, I’d spend 120k on turnips, hopefully around the 100 bells per turnip mark. That would get you 1200 turnips which will take up 12 slots in your inventory assuming you have that many free. Daisy will only sell you what you can afford and what you can carry. You can obviously drop the bought turnips to free up space (make sure you don’t eat them by mistake) and go back for more.
Then for arguments sake yours or someone else’s island is buying turnips at 300 bells per turnip then you’ll make 360k, 240k profit assuming the person that owns the island doesn’t ask for a fee in bells. If I have to pay a fee then I always pay in Nook Miles Tickets - ppl asking for 99k bells or multiples thereof are a big no thanks for me. 300 bells is a pretty average price, each time someone on here got a decent price it has always been 400+. 625 is the max I’ve seen.
Once you increase your inventory to 40 slots then you can buy 4000 turnips each time. That’s when the fun starts.
The most I’ve spent on turnips was a little over 9m. Last week I dialled it back and spent just under 6m, turnips were 99 bells each on my own island so I bought 15 inventories worth (4000 x 99 x 15 = 5,940,000). Because of how slow the game is with buying and managing inventory, that took over an hour to do, all on my own island too, no flying involved. Took almost 2 hrs flying back and forth to a fellow boardsie’s island selling them for 421 each (4000 x 421 x 15 = 25,260,000). That’s the main downside, when you want to buy and sell in bulk it takes ages.
As an aside to all the nerdy maths above, my initial aim was to try and pay off each house loan solely from turnip profits and not use any bells I’d earned the hard way. As the loans got more expensive it might have taken me a few weeks of turnip selling to cover the loan and not be broke afterwards - so I probably didn’t upgrade my house as fast as others. During the weekly grind rather than buy anything mad expensive for the house, I’d prefer to save so I had more to spend on turnips on Sunday while still making sure I had some left over.
When it comes to buying price, 100 or less is good imo. Anything over 110 and I would normally look to buy from another island.
Anyway, that’s way too much rambling from me. Just have fun with it, thankfully it’s only virtual money! 0 -

Right, I’ve invested 100k, and each Turnip was 90. I’d have invested more but half my wealth is tied up in residential services which is closed for refurbishment today, so I have no access to the ATM, lol.
From what I’ve read, 90 is a good price to buy at though so I’m going to spend the morning fishing to grab a few more if I can 0 -

Now that you’ve bought you have to be careful about time travel. I’m not suggesting you were about to but just a little further post to the excellent one above from AndrewRight, I’ve invested 100k, and each Turnip was 90.

1) turnips rot after Saturday so you can’t keep them for more than a week. Any time travel past next Saturday will kill them
2) if you go back even one day, your crop will rot. So you can’t leap forward to check the best price and then go back to Wednesday if that’s the high point0 -

Yeah very important points those.Bought 60 turnips for 102 each. Hopefully I can make a small profit! Can I sell any day up until Saturday?
You can sell from Monday to Saturday inclusive. From 9am to 10pm - Nook’s Cranny opening hours. 0 -
