Do you vend?

[ecopper12]

For those of you who don't know what vending is, it's basically been taking on multiple definitions. The one I am speaking of abiut though, is a great way to make gold.

You camp the marketplace just added page. You refresh or click the go button every couple seconds, and look at the prices of the items just added. if you see one that is a good deal you buy it. Then, you sell it closer to the LBP for profit,

Here is an example of a good deal I got.

Those things go for over 1 mil. I got at least a 50k profit.

There is another perk to this. The misprice.

If a user is trying to sell something for say....1,000,000 gold and they forget a zero, you have an expensive item listed for 100k. Let's say you get it. You sell it and that uis a 900k profit right there. There is alwaysw the 2% tax, but it doesn't matter if the deal it good.

Now, the user might flame you for buying the mispriced item and threaten to report you, but it isn;'t a reportable offense. It is a stated in the marketplace rules.

I myself have gotten 140k profit from just two items.

My question to you is, do you, or will you vend?

If not, I made a helpful video that I made originally for another member of the suites, but it can help all.

I don't have the time or the need for gold to vend xP  

[lgtenos]

Nah, I have a net worth of about 150k, so it's not really worth it for me. Besides, I'm contempt with my items. If I really want gold, I usually play zOMG.  

[PainfullyVivid]

I might if I needed some quick gold and could get a nice amount from a 2mil item or so.
Otherwise, probably not. Sitting there refreshing and refreshing and trying to memorize the average price for items are seems too boring for me. o: I'd probably rather play a game on here or bump in between doing something.

I don't vend, but I wouldn't mind exchanging again. I think exchanging is the only way for me to ever get my Mini Wings.
I also don't buy items that haven't been priced right since I think that's kind of rude.

This isn't vending, but the skinny jeans I bought for like, 5 gold, I just sold for 110k.

Hawt, rait?

I used to vend a little.

Already an active member there. Awesome guild, IMO.

Just thought I'd share something.

I made 400k+ today from vending alone. Three low priced famestar hero bundles, and an mispriced diamond record.

Four items made me 400k. You really can't go wrong. xD

Also! Comfy, it may be rude, but it's their own fault. That's why they ask you to confirm the listing before you list it. I'm still gonna do it. Sorry. xD  

[comfylove]

Everyone makes mistakes, though, especially if they're selling a lot. I have accidentally priced stuff incorrectly, and it's not fun.  

[ecopper12]

Once again, we have a confirm screen for a reason. It's your duty to look at the price. Triple check it if you have to. It's there to prevent that same thing. If you misprice it still, it's your own fault. I'm not saying it's nice, but it sure as hell is awesome.
