How to find Item IDs.

So you are wondering how to find the Neopets ID of an Item? Then you have come to the right place.
There are seven different ways to find the ID of an Item (Your Shop, Shop Wizard, User Shops, Your Gallery, Neopets Shop Restock, Your SDB, and Your Closet).

But first of all what is this Item ID? Well it is quite simple. An ID number is a number that Neopets uses to identify an item. Each time an item is released, it gets an ID number. (This way each item has an unique ID number.) For example, the first item released (a Green Apple) got an ID number of 1.

Shop Wizard

The Shop Wizard is the easiest way to look up an Item ID.


Simply search for an Item and hover your mouse over the Shop owner name on the results page.
You will see at the bottom of your screen in the browser bar a long http link. Find the part where it says '&buy_obj_info_id=24863'. 24863 represents the Unique ID number for the Shop Wizard Tips book and will change with each individual Item.

User Shops

Just as easy as getting the ID from the Shop Wizard, you can get the ID from a Users Shop.



Just hover over the item and you will see the Item ID. (The Item ID is the number after '&buy_obj_info_id'.)

Neopets Shop Restock

So you've found yourself in a Neopian Shop to restock and notice an item you haven't seen anywhere yet.
Getting the ID here works just as easy as in a users shop. All you need to do is hover over the item and look for 'obj_info_id='. The number after this is the ID number.

Your SDB



So you found an Item in your SDB that you need the ID from? Well it is quite simple. Just hover your mouse over the 'Remove One' and you should see this:
"javascript:onClick=passPin(2490,24863,'','');" The number you are looking for is the second number of the four. (In this case it would be 24863.)
The first number is the page number if you divide it by 30.

Your Shop

When you are in your shop, you need to first view the Source of the Page. There are two ways to do this:

1) Right click and click on 'View Source'
2) Or, you can just click here if you are using Firefox: Source of Your Shop

Then you have to search for the Item name in the source. Hit CTRL + F to open the search bar at the bottom and search for your item.
Once you've found your item, look for the following phrase: 'back_to_inv'. The number in the bracket is the ID number.

Your Gallery

So you want to find an ID number that the Shop Wizard doesn't have but you have the item in your gallery? All you need to do is view the source code of the page again!

First, you need to go to the Gallery Quick Remove or Remove Items page. You should then right click and then hit 'View Source' or (if you're in Firefox) click here.

Then, you should hit CTRL + F and search for your item name. Once you have, look for the following line: 'remove_qty_arr'. The number in the brackets is the Item ID number.

Your Closet

You can also get the IDs of clothing items in your Closet except for special Paint Brush wearables.

First you need to go to Your Closet. Right click and hit 'View Source'. If you are using Firefox, you can click here.

Just like in the other examples, hit CTRL + F on your keyboard to bring up the Find box. Search for the Item name you are looking for.



The highlighted number is the ID.
