Many of you have suggested that i should make a Merchant Guide..so here it is!
as you may know Evolt has a guide to merchanting aswell but may be a bit too *proffessional* for people that are just starting, so im going to make one thats simple, easy to understand and most importantly.. straight forward so here goes...
First thing: Have atleast 50k starting money (most people should be able to accumulate enough)
Secondly: A key note when trying to get rich is.. DONT SPEND YOUR EARNING RIGHT AFTER YOU COLLECT!
keep in stash, good idea to put every 100k earnings in stash right after you collect, this way you wont be tempted in spending it all
Third /this is where the real merchanting begins: Know your items! try to memorize and learn off by heart, as many pinks and rares in game as you can as this helps you search for items in cs
basic stuff to look for while searching cs:
*do NOT attempt these leveled WEAPONS as they have too small a margin to make a profit*
Level 37 AO pinks* usually go for a good amount when it comes to merching, helms if under 10k then buy and re sale for about 1k under the lowest in cs.
level 39 pink armors helms and shields: under 10k buy and resell 1k under lowest (excluding wings)*
level 40 pink armors helms and shields: helms if under 20k buy and resell 1k under lowest/ armors under 15k. shields: eye: under 15k buy and re sell around 24800, wings: under 8k buy and place 1k under lowest: pharoah shields: under 10k buy and place 1k under lowest.*
level 41 pink armors helms and shields: helms under 10k buy and re sell around 18800-24800, shields under 10k buy and re sell around 18800-24800, armors under 10k buy and resell around 18800-24800.*
level 43 pink armors and helms and shields: armors under 8k buy and resell 12800-18800, helms under 8k same as armours. shields same as armors EXCLUDING wings.*
those are basic ao items that work mostly all the time.
now for Scaled AO3 items, they usually go for quiet a bit:
