None2None Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 I wouldn't say "lucky" but it was educated... I had been picking up planks, tiles, and making nails in anticipation for construction before the day it came out. By the time it came I had ~3k planks, ~50k bronze nails, and ~3k tiles. Well, the tiles were useless, but I sold the nails for 100 each, the planks for 2k each, and the tiles for 100 each (I really dk what he was thinking :roll: ) Anyway, I made 11.3M in the week that it took me to get the stuff...and by my standards that's good playing 2 hours a day...reguardless what others think :P ~ Clicky for the blog of No Cb Skils ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even better: My friend bought a Halloween Mask (not sure what color) for 200k :shock: ....He sold it for a dragon chain the next day -.- ....Even worse, he then sold the chain for 2 Dharok Great-axes... I wanted to kill him when I heard this, but whatever. :wall: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grizzlycomet Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 I always keep my bank supplied with items I know people will buy for quests; tar, molten glass, soft clay, nails etc. etc. I have made probably several hundred thousand gp just selling people basic items they are willing to pay loads for to save a few minutes of gathering :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Celestrana Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Many of these trades are indeed extremely lucky if you never had the intention to scam your buyer and/or seller. I don't think anybody should make this a habit of trying to buy extremely low and selling extremely high with the intention of making huge amounts of money. There's nothing wrong with merchanting and although I'm not a fan of it, I occassionally do it myself. Lucky breaks are always good but there's a very fine line between scamming and being an extremely lucky merchant all the time. Becareful and don't cross that line. Being reported for item scamming is not good especially if you've spent months and maybe years developing your character's skills and accumulating items.
