Alright guys. Ive been playing Gaia off and on since the year it started up, but I honestly never noticed HOW people got so rich! All this time i've been wasting hundreds of dollars on cash cards before someone told me to start vending, and I honestly barely get it. I get what to do and how to vend, just dont get how people can become so rich off of gaining a small amount as 1,000 each time. Please explain why i've been poor and still am, and how serious venders are so rich!
Can you be a little more specific in what you want? I don't know your personal problems so I cannot answer that. I can give you some advice in what you should vend and what to do?
Sure! Thanks :3. Uhhhh. First off, how do you know whats a good price to buy and then resell the item? And then just give some random advice you think could help me some. Thanks
smile Hello there, there's some guides that cover some usual ways people can make money within long, and short periods of time. By all means help yourself to reading a few if you'd like. Honestly though I feel some of it is abit outdated with how the summer's market is coming to an end.
Hope I don't bore you with the long wall of text here, but here's my own opinion on making money. When you're looking to invest into an item you should
always pay attention to the sales volume graph. Knowing the popularity of the item you're investing in is the life and blood into money making. If you're not looking to put much risk into an investment keep sticking to items that are popular to buy such as but not limited to: Demonic Anklets, Clouds, Lusty, and bundle items. I'm not saying you have to stick with the four above because starting off that might be a tad expensive to start off with. Work your way up with cheap items, until you're comfortable vending things more expensive.
Above mostly deals with the exchange obviously, and that's where you can make a smaller portion of money at a faster pace.
People will usually post items up there to sell them quick, and this is where you'll begin bidding on the items from the buyer. First off never buy the item outright unless they're offering it at a 20 percent discount rate from market value. Otherwise try to bid as lowest as you can without insulting the seller.. It's tougher to explain in words so I'll use an example. Pretend the sellers name in the example is Larry.
Larry: Looking to sell Blue Force A Nature, current LMP is 52,000.
(Now this is where you'll need to use what you've read above. Make sure you know the price range of the item for the past few days and how likely you're able to sell the item back in the mp)
(Right now they're selling about fifty units a day and the prices have been steadily going up for a week now seeing bundles are going to leave the CS soon)
You: (Now here's where you'll bid. Try a number where you'll make a profit after you include the 2 percent sales tax that you'll be having to deal with in mp) I bid 41k.
Larry begins reading the responses in the thread at peoples offers. Don't be surprised if you're outbidded straight off. Keep your cool, if you can still make a profit outbid the other person. However again keep your cool, just because someone outbidded you keep going after the item. You're there to get the item, not a bid war. If you play your cards right you'll get the item for 41k.
(Sometimes you'll come across sellars who'll either insist on selling at near market value, or at LMP. If they insist, ignore them and move on. Exchanging this way has a medium risk, medium rewards.)
Good luck.
Now here's what hoarding is, and this is my own preference. I've made millions doing this style of vending. It's basicly where you'll buy a specific item and you wait a few weeks, or months depending on how long you're willing to wait for prices to inflate. This is where you have to be extra careful in what items you're going after. I don't suggest any other items besides MC's, Cash shop bundles, and or the items inside. Why you ask? That's because there's a higher chance there's a bigger demand in the item that you're looking to hoard. When hoarding never wait when they first come out to stock up on the items, bundles usually last in the CS for about a month or so. Also pay attention if there is a large demand for the item in popularity while it's still out. If so generally in the third week prices usually drop to about half price, and that's when it's best to purchase as many as you'd like to hoard. For example this months bundles were the rainbows and there's a higher demand for hair related items. Already the red rabbits are beginning to inflate as it'll be gone from the CS soon. When you hoard, unless you're not wanting to take a risk buy during the third week, and sell a week after they've left the shop. You'll generally make about thirty percent profit coming from my own experiences.
If you'd like add me, and I'll help advise you if you ever are looking to invest in something. Always a pleasure to help people.
