I'm assuming you've read the guides found in link below.

Some people get merching and some people don't. The people that do aren't asking anyone for prices, they do the leg work and figure it out. Start with items you know and expand from there. Understanding cs, pvp, farming, what makes an item desirable, and all your different classes is where I'd start. If the answer is,"I have" then maybe merching isn't your thing.
Hes correct^ some people its just not their thing. Make sure you're careful when merching with the cs
thx:)

Thats not the advantage for sure, I just never got very comfortable with personal dealings, and I also hate to offer lowballs to those, who dont know items value. I mostly buy stuff in CS and sell in CS aswell.
Anyway, what is most important for you is to study learn and watch price range on that group of items you want to merch with. Many people want to know what kind of stuff us "best to merch with?". I have NO answer for this question. Rentability of each item is changing with current supply, demand, pricing etc. But basically, you can earn on almost anything, if you manage your purchases and sales.
Your merchant career hardly depends on style you choose. Essentialy, you can differ two basic styles and theri combinations. Depending on the number of CS slots you have, you can be either pure "CS merchant" like I am, or "Street merchant". For sure, you can use both styles, like buying from players and selling in cs. Also, very hard to say which style is the best. I believe, that you can buy items overal cheaper directly from people (even without being hated lowballer 70% off), especially with set discounts etc. But it requres your time spent advertising your buyout, dealing with people... Among Cs sellers I also distinguish "Fast sellers" who list their items bellow average price to sell them fast and replace with others, or "Cs competitors" who list mostly less common items for pretty top prices, dont mind re-listing within days and wait for the right buyer. You have to choose what is best for you.
"Buy low" is useless advice for sure. Based on your gold state you mentioned, for casual merhing I'd recommend you to choose items in range of 50-500k. This includes glyph items, tiki items, gemstone items (harder to sell) also different haloween stuff, cheaper blacksmoke pinks. For sure thats not all, just examples. I follow one simple rule on items in this price range, whi is: less that 10% profitt (including CS fees) is not succes. For sure there are exceptions but I mostly try to reach this or higher profit on each item.
All in all, there is no easy step-by-step instruction how to become succesfull merchant. It takes decent time for you to find suitable way, then you will improve by the time. I hope I was at least a bit helpful and i with you best luck.
