For example, merchanting stackables...yeah, pretty much just find out the min and max price they sell for and buy for the min and sell for the max...

Mamong Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 Merchants just push prices up. You can spot merchants normally, they look for the bargains and sell them about 5 mins later.

Merchants are bad [-X they dont push em up as much as they keep the price range low.. ie if no one merchanted the price range of pure ess would prolly be like 20-150...but instead its about 60-70 ea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merchants are bad [-X No your just jealous because you don't have millions. Merchanting is a skill. People who think they are going to merchant and mr than most people think (merchanting millionake big money from guides are kidding themselves. Merchanting is alot hardes worth of items). So it all comes down to practice, and a fair bit of brains. There are so many wanna-bee merchants out there now its pathetic. :roll: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toxicologist Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 I personally don't merchant because I do not like to rely on others in any way in the game, but I know it is one of the most effective ways to make money. You don't even need that great of a saving before hand: just work your way up. It is, however; much riskier than other methods of making money, but not much unless you are really unknowledgable. Why do you resist? My experiments are only helping humanity push the boundaries of the Art of Toxicology... you should be proud to be one of my victims. ~Toxicologist~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyco Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 No thanks, if we help more people into being merchants it will drive prices up, if everyone is buying low then trying to sell high the high price will end up being the only price then they will raise that price. =; :-({|= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On topic, as everyone has said, merchanting is basically buying low, sellin high, no guides tell you anything but the simple methods, to really make money you need to teach yourself, and that takes ages, I don't think it's worth, mainly because merchanting doesn't go on the high scores and it takes longer than any other skill to become good at.

Btw, I welcome more merchants, the more merchants, the higher the demand for phats, seeing as most merchants want/have them, which = higher prices for me. :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
