Net has disappeared. Please help!

[JWBear77]

I recently started playing this game and loving it but inexplicably my net has disappeared!

I definitely did not sell it or drop it and now it is no longer available in the general store. I know stuff comes in and out but it has been 5 days!

Has anyone experienced this before with and more importantly how can I regain it? Can I travel to another persons town where that general store may have one to buy?

I'm thinking it is a glitch as my fiance no longer has one nor can see it in a store

I jsut don't want to have to destroy town and start from scratch unless absolutely necessary.

We've only been playing for just over a week so not THAT bad but still many hours

No?
Did you accidentally sell it? I have once accidentally sold my gold can..

I can give you mine if you'd like.

well that would be very much appreciated but I am very much a novice AC player (just over a week) and not sure how to make it happen..?

Thanks very much

The shops restocks daily but the tools can be random.

Visit another town through your train station.

Um, first off, I would like to say (No offense) but I really don't think you would have to RESTART your town. You just have to be patient with your Nooklings' store until you have one. This happened to me too with my fishing rod, but I bought another when it was in the store again. And good luck getting your net from Swiftstream, she's really nice! ^-^

ok well I've yet to interact with any other players before let alone travel to another town

is there an intro 101 somewhere which can cover this?

Same happened to me with all my tools when I first started too :/ Did you go to the Island with them in your inventory?? That's when mine disappeared.

On your home menu of the 3ds, click on the smiley face at the top. Add the other players friend code. (Here, most people put it in the sidebar.)

Post your own friend code so she can add you too.

Talk via visitor message or private message about what time is best to visit.

Go to Main Street. Go to the photo booth and take a picture.

Go to the train station. Talk to the monkey. If you are visiting, tell him. (Choose faraway option.) He'll connect to the internet and show you open gates. Click on the town you want to visit. Wait for the train. Everything is automatic at that point. Be polite when you arrive. Don't run off or shake trees without asking. I tend to stay by the train station when trading unless invited to do other things. Most trades are very short. People have other things to do.

The other player may send you home. You won't have to do anything. Or you can go back inside and tell the monkey it's time to leave. Voila, you're done!


If the other person wants to visit you, tell the monkey to open your gate. Be patient and someone will arrive. When done, they can leave by talking to the monkey. Or, you can click start and choose to end the session. That will send the other player home.

Hope that helps.

And the watering can is never sold at the Nookling stores. It's sold at the Gardening Store, so once you have that shop unlocked it'll show up in a few days.

I think you can get that tool and the net and the fishing rod from Isabelle in the tutorial. Did you deny her offer of giving you a net/rod?
