I have Penguin Slippers that I'm not really interested in, what do you suggest I do?

start from the step of selling it in the exchange. ask more more items and less pure gold. and value the items like I said in the previous post



darth: vend is the same as the marketplace. just a much easier way to say it.

Thanks.

that's where the exchange comes in. sell off everything you can in the marketplace, doesn't matter if it's a bit low. buy the most expensive donation item that you can get a semi good deal on. doesn't really matter if you over pay a little. then make a thread and sell the item that you bought. value items that are offered for your item UNDER what you would sell low in the market. for example

there's a donation item being sold, it's price in marketplace is say 22k. you might ACTUALLY be able to sell it for 21k in the market, so go ahead and offer aroud that. then, if you get the item, turn around and sell it again in the exchange. say they offer an item that's 20k in vend and 1k pure gold. you think that you can sell the item they offered in vend for maybe 19k, so value lower than that and value the item at 17-18k.

in this case their offer would value at 18-19k. that's when you ask them to add. 3k would be the best. if you can get them to offer another item value it the same way. and if the total comes to about the vend price of YOUR item. then you're garuntees than you can sell their items in vend and come out a few thousand gold ahead.


the bigger and more items you have to work with the more you can do this. that's how I make so much every day.

So let me get this straight:
You buy something and then sell it in the exchange. People will offer items in stead of money for them, and when they do, you will value that item a bit lower than you would actually be able to sell it for in the marketplace.
Is that how it is? I read the post several times and I think I understand now. Thanks for the tip smile

no prob. and yes, the bigger the item you sell in the exchange generally the more valuable the items that will be offered for it. just keep selling them like that until the items are small enough that you can easily sell in the marketplace.

bit low. anything you can add?

How low is it?
I can add a Thank You Letter For December 2004

still low. sweatdrop valued at 2533k. lowest scarf in vend is 2800k

What about adding a Thank You Letter For November 2004 and a Thank You Letter For March 2005

sure. but since your offer is 16 items. the scarf will be in the last trade. okay?

end total by my valuing durring the trade: 2846k

that's 46k OVER vend price. not only that, but I was valuing low. and using the vend scarf as an excuse to want more. total value of this offer that I can sell for is about 3mill. and normal selling value of the scarf is 2550k-2600k

that right there is almost 500k profit. now all I have to do is do the same thing with all the items I got in his offer to make even more profit.

Hmm, I don't get it. I tried it the way you do, by selling a shadow spirit. I don't have a lot of items that are worth much, so I tried it out. But everyone seemed to know exactly how much their items they offered were worth, and they weren't willing to pay what the marketprice value was at that moment. So in the end I could not get a decent offer... How come they do offer more when you want to exchange an item?

so be manipulative. and tell then that it's your thread, your prices. and don't argue with them. if they don't like it then just leave.

Would it be easier to sell items that are worth more?
