    Try this:
    put a few neggs or codestones into the trade, and post in your wishlist something like:
    TP, then Your Price, then write codestones/whatever items are included free .


    It works for me everytime :D
    Tell me if it works .​

    This normally only works for 200k or less items, but it's a nice trick. ^_^

    same
    I usually just dump them off on resellers or if it's under 150k, I'll sell it for 99999 in my shop.

    I hate resellers trying to bid HTS items on my ETS ones. >.> "It will easily sell for 45763million!" I always reply "well then once you sell it for that, just give me the pure. :)"

    I friggen hate HTS items. D:

    You're a reseller? I used to be one, but I could never be patient enough to wait for full price.

    I always wondered how fun auctions worked. Do you end up making close to full price ever? I know people get caught up in bidding and end up not even caring about profit, but merely winning. lol

    Usually you can find a lot of cheap HTS items on the Trading/Auctions board .
    Dont forget to haggle, if they're desperate to sell, they'll give it to you for a good price .

    I suck at haggling. I always get the people who say "1 BILLION FIRM" or i'll offer reallllly low and they just accept. o-o which makes me nervous.

    Getting items cheap is 80% of making np doing reselling. Selling items high is much harder. what you got to do is try get items HTS/ETS really cheap.
    Trading/Auctions-BD-board are two great boards to get items cheap. Just browse the forums and visit a few boards of people who are selling. Look at how much other people are bidding for an item.
    If they are bidding 200k for a 800k on tp item, which is a r98 furniture, then you can easily surmise other r98 might be the same price. Eventally after a few days of browsing you will have remembered prices of over 100 unbuyables. Now comes the trick, this experience will enable you to see whether somebody is giving a great deal.
    If somebody is selling that same furniture for 110k, then you know 90k might be easy to be had depending how the sale of the previous same item went. You will be surprised how after a few days of browsing suddenly you will be able to differentiate good deals, or even better, know if what you're seeing is a bad deal. Putting np in a dead dog-item is a mistake newbie resellers tend to make.

    Always keep in mind though items prices fluctuate over time alot. You have to account for tp amount and price.

    You don't necesarily have to haggle. You can bid *k amount of np and hope they will accept. Especially on beat boards I like to do that.

    Isn't there already a recent reselling guide? Or do you mean you're interested in more specifics instead of a basic guide? Not that I can provide them necesarily though.
