:/ (Stupid Shops)

[DM was on fire!]

You were referred here from a non-Neopets page. Looks like somebody was trying to cheat you! Try another shop!

Twice I have received that while attempting to buy a Pink Poogle Toy. Both also have petpages.neopets.com as the beginning of the URL.

Anyone else having this problem?

It only happens if you are on the petpage server. As there are so many pets, they have a different server for their petpages. I have had it happen to me thousands of times. I think the solution is just delete the petpage part of the url, and it should work.

yep, what Knives said If you've been to a petpage, any petpage, the addy can sometimes "stick". I just close the window, type in the regular neopets addy and all is well again.

So that's what happened to me a while ago. I kept getting that error and couldn't figure out why. It happened to me no matter what shop I was on.

when I receive that message, I will just go to a shop front, cut and copy the username. Then I will be able to buy that item.
