The Avatar Lending Program, or ALP, is The Daily Neopets' signature lending service to help our members get new avatars! We currently lend almost all the item avatars, and are saving for a Bony Grarrl Club to add to our items-for-lending. On the pet front, we run chain lends for every pet, petpet, and petpetpet avatar :)

Get ahead and read over our policies, then request the item you wish!

Requests Re-Opened for "Queen Fyora" and "Chokato"

Hi all I'm very pleased to say that we have a few new lenders in our ranks - and that, with their help, we no longer have to keep the requests closed for the "Queen Fyora" and "Chokato" avatars! Yay we're back on the lending list! There are now four lenders for Chokato - myself, Emily, Alice and ktmc713 - and three for Queen Fyora - myself, Emily and Alice. With this extra help, I'm hopeful that we will be able to keep waiting times down for these two items in the future. In other news, the list for borrowing my Zafara Double Agent plushie is still extremely long. I'm finding though that half the time I put the auction up for people and they either no longer have the collateral, or they already have the avatar but didn't tell me. This means my plushie sits in auctions for nothing, so over the next few days I'm going to try and neomail everyone on my ZDAP waiting list to check if they still want to borrow. I'm hopeful that we can cut down the waiting list in this way Finally, if there are people lurking out there who own other high-end avatar items (particularly Zafara Double Agent Plushie!) and would like to lend through TDN, then please feel free to contact me via our forums and we'll discuss adding you to our staff.

Increasing "Faerie Queen Doll" Collateral

Unfortunately, I am going to have to increase the required collateral for the Faerie Queen Doll avatar. I have lost two in the last month because apparently people think 50-100k is worth risking their account for. Thus, the new collateral for borrowing this item is to be 1,600,000 NP. I don't want to be stolen anymore *sigh* » posted on Saturday, February 11th 2012 @ 1:37 am EST by Izzy ♥ Comments: 28

New Requests Suspended for Some Items

Hi all Just a quick note to let everyone know that I am suspending new requests for a couple of the bigger items. This is due to extremely long waiting times. I want to get through the current pending lends before adding new people to the waiting lists. The items affected will be: Zafara Double Agent Plushie - 45 people waiting, 1 plushie to lend, thats approximately 5 months wait Chokato (TCG) - 26 people waiting, 2 cards to lend, thats about 1 month wait Faerie Queen Doll - 30 people waiting, 3 dolls to lend, something like 3 weeks wait Once I am through the people waiting for these items, I will reopen requests for these items. Hopefully then, things will go a little bit slower and I can keep up without the need for these huge waiting lists! Thanks for your patience everyone Izzy ALP Co-ordinator » posted on Tuesday, December 27th 2011 @ 7:29 am EST by Izzy ♥ Comments: 19

Changing Collaterals

Hi all Recent price changes for our "big ticket" items have forced me to amend the collaterals as follows: Icy Snowflake - raised to 250,000 NP Faerie Queen Doll - no change at 1,400,000 NP Chokato (TCG) - raised to 3,200,000 NP Zafara Double Agent Plushie - decreased to 6,200,000 NP Meowclops - raised to 8,000,000 NP If you were on the waiting list or had a pending request for one of these items (particularly the Chokato card) you will be contacted soon to discuss if you can still cover the increased collateral. Normally I would, in good faith, complete all pending lends at the original collateral however one user has already taken advantage of that with regard to Chokato so now, unfortunately, I will be requiring the revised collateral from everyone. Apologies for any inconvenience this causes, Izzy ALP Co-ordinator » posted on Tuesday, August 30th 2011 @ 3:58 am EST by Izzy ♥ Comments: 27

Changes to Accepted Collateral

Hi all Due to a recent dishonest lendee, who put up hard-to-sell items in collateral and now will not return the ALP's Faerie Queen Doll, I am changing the types of items I will accept for collateral on the higher level items (FQD, Chokato, ZDAP & Meowy). I will not, under any circumstances, be accepting HTS items anymore - even if you are offering overpayment in these types of items. I am sorry that this has to be, but there is always going to be some dishonest people who want to ruin things for everyone else. Collateral in pure Neopoints, with lending via the Auction House, will continue to be acceptable, as will item collateral in easy-to-sell items such as Paint Brushes and popular Battledome weapons. Thank you to those honest lendees out there who have borrowed from me in the past! Izzy & the ALP Staff » posted on Sunday, July 10th 2011 @ 12:42 am EST by Izzy ♥ Comments: 47

New Pet Lending Rules

Hello all! As of now, you may only enter up to 4 pet chains each month, regardless of if you have more transfers than that. This makes it eaiser to organize chains and decreases the chance of overlap due to delays. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, but this will make the chains and any inevitable delays eaiser to handle. Also, if you have 4 pets on the day you are set to recieve an ALP pet, you will be skipped and removed from the chain that month. The only exception to this rule is if you still have a different ALP pet on your account. This rarely happens. If you are removed from a chain due to lack of room for the pet you are still free to rejoin that chain in a later month. These rules are to help the chains run as smoothly as possible. If you have any questions about them, please feel free to ask. Anime Pet Chain Coordinator » posted on Friday, April 15th 2011 @ 4:57 am EST by Anime Comments: 3
