Any tips on working the market?

Player Questions Started Last reply 6 posts
At the moment I have been buying GHP from Giran at 1400ae, and reselling at 1850ae in Dion. As well as purchasing Enchant Weapon D's for 300k and reselling at 400k. This is nice and all, but im not making enough coin...

Anyone have ANY tips on as to how I can improve profit, anyway possible... It would be greatly appreciated.. thanks for your time.
Hmm,
I heard you can go to Giran, but 2 D Grade swords (assuming from the merchant) and a certain number of D Crystals. Then go to the blacksmith and have him turn them into duals.
Then go to Dion and sell then for about a 200k profit.
This is on my server (kain) could be a lot different on your server.

Other than that, I just hang out in Dion, buy low and sell high.
Made a million one night doing that.
Unless u can craft. The best way to make a little adena is to buy low and sell high. Be patient but the adena will come along eventually.
It goes faster if you buy low, and sell low.. just higher than you bought.
But then again, I hate sitting in store..
Sit and sell when you sleep, work and study etc.. :)
Also, buy items that you know people want.

And at times you need to be steadfast. Soul Crystals used to go (and in some cases still do) for 100k per lvl. Seemed fair to me.

Suddenly I was seeing them selling for half price. Must have been that last event. so I would just buy as many of them as I could and sell them for 100k per lvl.

lo and behold they sold.

Another thing is when you get more money buy items that are more expensive but which you can sell for more.

At one point I was buying Homonkuls swords, enchanting them and sellng for a nice price. Until I got greedy and decided to start plussing them to +4.

That's when things turned south.

Part of playing the market is patience though. At one point enchant armor and weapon D scrolls were going for very very low prices. I bought somehting like 10 of them.

took me a while to get rid of them at the usual price but I did it.
