    after you deposit you have to enter in the amount that you want to buy the gold for. then the box right below that you put in how many gold you wanna buy. and it will give you the total you have to pay. there is also tax so you will have to pay a little more that what you are actually paying for the gold.

    The in-game guide is terrible.

    You need to place a bid to buy gold. If you look on the right, it'll show you the current bids/offers on the table. The top shows offers from people selling gold. The bottom shows bids from people buying gold.

    If you want your gold immediately, you pick the lowest price on the top (WTS gold) and place a bid for that amount (make sure the offer has enough gold to meet your bid).

    If you're willing to wait, you pick the highest price on the bottom (WTB gold) and match it or bid higher than it. A gold seller who wants coin immediately will look at those, and sell his gold to the highest bidder, so you want to make yourself the highest bidder. (If you think gold prices will go down, you can bid less than the current highest amount. But be prepared to wait.)

    Now that you know how much to bid, you fill in the two fields in the top left. One is for the price you're bidding per gold. The second is for the amount of gold. Enter those numbers and place the bid. You'll get a dialog asking you to confirm. Verify it and (if you bid on an existing offer) you will get your gold immediately, or (if you decided to wait and placed a lower-priced bid) your bid will show up on the lower right.

    There's a 2% transaction fee which is deducted when placing your bid/offer. If you make a mistake you can cancel, but anyone can fill your bid/offer until you do, so be quick. If nobody fills your bid/offer for a week, it expires and you get your money back. I'm not sure if you get the 2% transaction fee back in either of these cases.

    Real world currency exchanges are even more confusing. ^.^
