I'm looking to start spending my prize points for both AC II and Lost Isle.
AC II- 7,025
Lost Isle- 1,325
I think my best bet for AC II would be the stamp and some other item. As for the Isle, I have no clue. I'm not so concerned with the Isle points as I am with the AC II points, since TNT already warned the shop won't stay open for long.
Although I'm starting this thread to get advice for myself, I would hope that others can find help here too.
About the Lost Isle: if you're looking to make the most profit out of it, then someone on the Neodaq forum has made a nice list of the NP you get per prize:

Although you might want to re-check the current status, it can change fast. At any rate, books seem like a good investment, as do the weapons. There's also a list about the Tale of Woe plot I think.
For the AC prizes, I think you should just go for the stamp and work your way down from there, get the next highest prize that you can afford, and so on. Not many people participated here, so the higher the point cost is, the higher the rarity and thus the higher the value. That's just for now, though, since there's a lot of selling and buying right after prizes come out. If you're looking for a longer term investment, books come to mind again, since later on it's usually more based on usefulness than rarity.
As for the warning TNT gave about the AC prizes, my guess it's probably open until a month or two before they start the next AC, like they did this year
Okay, so here's what I figure I'll buy:
Lost Isle- Both books. Junk with the few remaining points.
AC II- Stamp, Slushie Book. Random items, maybe a jersey with the few remaining points.
I think I'll stash them all in my SDB for likely up to a year.
Thanks for the Neodaq list. Unfortunatley, I already spent my ToW points. All on the junk BD items. Not so bad, since I later traded them all for a Ghost PB (at the value of the weapons at the time I traded, that was a steal).
EDIT: I bought all my prizes.
Lost Isle- Both books.
AC II- Stamp, Slushie Slinging for Novices, two Altador Cup Fan Jerseys.
Actually i still need to spend my ToW points. This tpic reminded me about the same. lets see...
Sophie flips through a book, looking for your name. "According to this, you have 32,630 points left to spend."
so any suggestions? The books or wait for some more time? Or get the books and store it in my SDB? for how long shold i wait? i need to get a freezer
I found the tale of woe books to be a decent cash return. Selling them now would probably give you a decent return and i'd say most of the people who would read them to their pets (and therefore dropping the supply) have already done so. You might want to check wiz prices and calculate the combinations that would give you the best return though
problem is i have a lousy connection and am lazy
so if there is a ready reference i would appreciate it
It would probably always be better to hold on to your plot points, unless TNT is going to be getting rid of them soon, or you need the money right then. Otherwise it's better to keep your options open so you can maximise your profit when you finally do want to spend them.
