Safest Way to Transfer Items

I have some items worth a hefty sum and I want to transfer it over to another account.
What is the safest way to do this?
Keep in mind that I only have one computer running Maplestory and no trusted friends

I can thankfully trust a friend. He trusts me with his stuff too. I don't have too many people I can trust, but I'm glad to have some.

Edit: Why are you guys giving your locations?

maplestory doesn't work by default on virtual machines, you might be able to tweak some thigns to get it to work though.

What I did was use game launcher and went to Ardentmil go into a mine doesnt matter what 1 drop things on portal then log off go on a diff char and pick up in said mine on a safe ch. Only way I can think of besides 2 computers or Multi MS client

Find a trusted guildie/friend, that's what I do, or if its just 1 or 2 items, I go to my secret spot and drop trade.

Do not drop because there is ALWAYS a risk of losing the items.
Find people you trust (you have their fb, their phone number, you know their parents, you know them in real life...etc.), and ask them to help you trade.
Or download maple on your parents or siblings computer, make sure they are virus free, and then use their computer to transfer.

Well, there really isnt another way then trading with somebody (yourself on a diff computer, friends) or dropping it. You can always ask a friend in real life to download maplestory and make a char solely to trade your items to your other account.

Well you're kinda not supposed to have two accounts But the safest (not legit way) is to use a program. Can't say which. (Don't even know the name to be honest)

Or a more complicated way, ask a random person to help and offer lets say 100 mil to help you out.
You give him/her your items and he/she gives you collateral items. (This is assuming you have costly items on your second account.
That person gives the colat item you gave to the original account. All three items should be the same cost.
(Right now he/she has the item you want to transfer, your original account has the colat you gave, and your second account has the colat from your helper)
Then you hop on your second account and give back the his/her colat for the item you wanted to transfer. You can group all the items at once to make it faster.

So in the end, the helper gets some cash, and items are switched from your first and second account.

Are you guys seriously telling him to drop it in the profession town? It's a common location accessible from every town -_-

I'd suggest a random house in a dead town. Or a monster spot where nobody goes.

I do the deserted portal drop and have never lost anything.

I reccomend dropping it in either
1. Dead PQ portals
2. Hair Salons
3. Skin Salons .. etc you get the point
4. Dead monster maps
5. Job Instructor maps
Done this way too many times.. got nothing stolen <3

You can always drop trade in the waiting room of any abandoned pq.

Drop trading on portals isn't the safest spot you can get. Especially not in Ardentmill like blazi4ever said. However, I'm not going to state my drop trading spot

You do realise Ardentmill works just like the FM right? It can be accessed by all towns in every channel.

[quote=Darknight099]Drop trade in a safe spot
I usually do crafting town on an empty channel on top of the fm portal(cant see dropped items)[/quote]

That's the worst way possible lmao.

1. You basically just informed everyone of a drop trade spot
2. There's that chance that your maple crashes and your items would've disappeared by the time you get back on
3. Maple has server crash/lag and you're unable to get back on

Find trusted friends, there are a very few that I can trust but nonetheless, trusted friends do exist lol. If not then...there is no safe way.
