(Because no one wants to give away the secrets of the trade.)

(Not to be rude or anything though, just voicing out what probably many people will tell you. Or not tell you actually.)

Bah, why reply then, if it is to be so negative? We are supposed to help. It's not like he would be in your server, have a monopoly on the market or scam you of your money.
Seriously, it's not even a secret to do fast and easy money in game.

So im gona invest 100$ .. but i do wana make some profit . 100$ will be around 48 milin game . .. im in Archosaur server so its gona be kind hard to make some profit cuz server is death but still u have any suggestions?

The simple process of investing real money on boutique items to resell them after, you will get easy and fast profit (probably several millions, if you manage to find the right equilibrium between high enough price and good demand). Then after, you can merchant on some valuable materials, which you will see them by yourself, just buy low, sell high, but once again, not too low, or you will lose or not gain enough, or not too high or no one will buy and you will waste time on that.

But if you say the server is dead, why invest? Oh well, not my business.

Good luck!

I suggest you wait till one of the high level players rage quit because of boredom and say they're switching servers (seems Harshlands is most popular). Then they'll shout something like "WTT 52 million on Archosaur for 40 million on Harshlands", in which case you should then charge your money onto Harshlands server and then trade it for coin on Archosaur.

If that doesn't appeal to you, give me all your gold and I'll see if I can make a profit out of it. b:shutup

Eh? does your strategy work? I want a full contract with all legal mentions and stipulations made clear, including the small letters, because you seem to be the very honest guy.

/sarcasm full mode

I remember back in the day when prices were so low $100 got you 10 mil. What's gold prices now?

try to get a herc, it costs more than 100 dollars, about 150dollars i think
but once you get it, its like a money printing machine.

ask any veno you know

yea ive seen venos making more "husband" pets and ditching them once they are done with them

go find better veno friends.

go make one if you dont believe me, they get alot more coins than other classes even by doing normal grinding.

then you should know about it

i made enough for a cloudcharger thru merchanting too

cant log in now so just trolling forums.

better luck next time

how do you reply so fast QQ

thats impossible

1. Do the free zen surveys and get a stone to share inventory

2. Make Elf alts on this account (one for plants / one for ores-wood-mats / one for misc / one for armor etc...) (Elf because they have wings and can be flown to major cities)

3. Use these Elfs to vend these items when your not playing

4. Learn to craft
> buy underpriced molders & use mats you farm to create an item to vend
> craft items for levels 40-70 (do not add stones)
> vend the good items > break down the other to fuel crystals (genie-fairy food)
> save up the genie-fairy food (sell before big TW's)
> save your plants and craft potions common to TW (save them - do not vend - you wait for a BIG TW then vend...).

5. PICK UP EVERYTHING

Here is what I do - I have a sin and a veno on same account. When I log, I put ALL COINS in the shared stash area of banker. Then I give the veno or sin $100,000. That is her $ for the day and ALL she will get.

> As I kill or quest I also dig for mats and plants.

> When I die or get pked, I take time to repair, and store mats in the shared area (keeping things organized as I go)

> I do my repairs, identify items and push the good stuff to the shared area

> When shared area gets full I log the others and move the items to their bank/inventory.

> Junk gets sold to NPC and I use for repairs

> I fly everywhere - period

> If I do not need it > I do not buy it

> Next morning I once again, dump the excess coins into the shared area. This is used for investing in charms

> ALL pots are picked up and stored / and used


6. PLAN

> This week I will.....

> BIG TW coming soon... pull out those TW pots you made and vend

> Make time to farm for specific items - the material to enter TT, potions, etc...

7. When you get board

> Check vendors for amazing deals or mistyped prices (buy, revend)

> keep ONE prize for emergencies to sell and trumpets (I have a Bad Panda I got for almost 1/2 his worth).


VENDING TRICKS

> Put your stall next to someone overpriced and sell a tiny bit lower (In another version I would get my 2 sisters to log, take some of my items and sell them a tiny bit higher - my stall always sold out).

> Auction House - multiple items that are the same > stagger the prices and the lower ones are sure to sell. No the higher ones won't but atleast you know the lower ones will. By setting higher prices - it makes people think the lower price is a steal.

> NEVER Vend hand to hand. Always set up a shop to sell and have the other set up a shop to sell to you.

MISC

> Look at NPCS that have quests asking for specific items.. think about vending that item right by the NPC (or mats by crafting npcs, genie/fairy food by that npc)

> Think about farming pet food for the Phoenix / Hercules and vending on a continual basis (in the same location)


- Think - Plan - Compare Prices -

BTW there IS no such thing as a useless item ... again PICK UP EVERYTHING.............

If your smart, you choose ONE item, vend it in same spot using same stall name and people will learn to recognize you, trust you and even look for your sales first.

thnx alot nianjade for ur help but once again.. im not really into the hole farming and crafting .:) my fan is to play and get some good gear .:) my point was if i could get something for around 10 mil and sell it for more or get some boutiques itmes and sell tham or something to get more profit . i do have 40 -60 mil to invest and i wana know in what >.
i now hypers areat sale now. should i buy like 100 of tham and sell tham more when the sale ends? something like this lol ty

Well, buying hypers now is not a bad idea. The thing is, everyone and their mother is doing that too. Competition will be fierce, but if you manage to sell your hypers, you will make plenty of money.
