Merching Question

[knight202]

I hear a lot of people talking about buying an item at the minimum and selling at the maximum. Im just woundering what they consider to be the minimum and the maximum of an item? Does that entail selling a few of the item at different values to find what value you can buy and sell at?

 

Thanks all

The min/max theory is from the pre-free trade G.E., and in my experience never worked anyway. Basically, you're right that you'll just have to try and find buy/sell prices that work. Just as an fyi though, prices that work for 10 items may not work as well for 10,000 or 100,000.

 

The biggest piece of advice I can give you is this: merching on the G.E. is like playing the stock market. Don't invest more than you're willing to lose.

You could just flip, where you buy a certain amount of items, for example 25k blood runes for 500gp and then resell them to the ge for 510gp making a 250k profit in literilly 10 minutes or so. (Just using bloods for an example, you'll find items which work best for you after you do some flipping. I could easily make 2m a day flipping with just 20m (Which is also what im doing right now to get a cashpile together...) But yeah, that's an alternative to the whole reading and predicting graphs etc etc. I'm sure there's many guides out there that teach the fundementals of flipping.
