Guide on how to merchant?

[fuzzylazer]

Hello peoplez,

This guide will tell you a quick way of learning on how to merchant.

Firstly, what is a merchant? A merchant is when someone buys an item from you for a cheap price and sell at a higher price, so your making a profit.

These are the steps on how to merchant. :)

1. Go from town to town buying pinks. (Make sure they're easy for you to sell)
2. If someone wants to sell you an item, look the item up on cs.
3. Make sure you merchant a proper amount of gold.
4. Buy that item for a cheap price then sell that item for a higher price on cs.
EXAMPLE:
Merchanter: Buying any pinks at a discounted price.
Random guy: I'll sell you my crafted orlok set.
Merchanter: Hold on, let me check cs.
Random guy: Ok.
(It is 1.4 mil in cs)
Merchanter: 1.1 mil for the set
Random guy: 1.3 mil
Merchanter: 1.1 mil highest I'm going.
Random guy: 1.2 mil minimum.
Merchanter: Nty, good luck selling it.
(Few minutes later)
Random guy: Oh wait, 1.1 mil deal
Merchanter: I decided to change my offer, 1 mil for the set.
Random guy: Oh fine!
(They traded and now the merchanter can merchant at least 200k.)

90% of the time people are in a hurry to sell. Also, keep on checking up pinks on cs cuz lots of people mistaken their prices like I bought a lvl 56 nuri glyph wand for 90k but I think the seller was mean't to place it up for 900k.

Hope this helped everyone!
Good luck merchanting! :)

Most people are in a hurry to sell so they sell it cheap. Last time I got crafted lilith wand set for 1.1 mil and crafted lilith staff set for 460k. :)

Firstly, what is a merchant? A merchant is when someone buys an item from you for a cheap price and sell at a higher price, so your making a profit.

You are wrong. The one buying the item from you at a cheap price & selling it for more is making the profit -not- you. For Example: If someone buys an item from you for 5k and sells it for 12k they made a profit of 7k & got back the 5k they used to buy the item. Therefore leaving you with only 5k when you could've had 12k.

God I hate math.. x.x
