Yes hoarding is a great idea. I currently have 200 aee stashed away. It happens EVERY time. Either when aee gets handed out at events like this, or proxied sells them 10m each then stops selling them forever. It will take a few months but if you can afford to stash away a good amount you will be set.

Screw merching you can sell 20k nx and boom 1bil easy. I never merched and i never will.[/quote]

And that's why you're probably poor people like you are my
Favorite in maplestory clueless and have money to waste
Don't know prices really easy to merch

@Imerchpots I've been buying for like 6m-6.5m and selling for like 11m-13m. So you're saying to hoard them for profit later on? I don't know if the star event glitch is really generating that many into the market..

Well an idea for people with less mesos is to buy aee and epic pot scrolls for super cheap. There are tons of them floating around right now because of the star generator glitch. Now that that glitch is fixed, it's all about supply and demand. Supply gets lowered demand stays the same therefore the prices will increase. Aee was about 70m before this glitch and same with epic pot scrolls.

@Imerchpots: Well, I don't have a NX shop, nor do I have enough mesos to buy Specs

Yes and specs are AMAZING to merch. I buy for 300-400 and sell for 550 within the day.

[quote=Spanish]What do you merch?
Items.

Buy Specs for 300m sell for 400m
Buy 6% DEX earrs 8m sell for 20m.
Etc.[/quote]

[quote=Dorks]The fast way is to sell NX.
imo there's really nothing to merch besides NX items (buy low sell high method) which are way below the NX:mesos ratio for most of the items.
I see tempest stuff being sold and if you get an epic 3L it can go for as much as 200mil but I've only scanned FM so I didn't look too closely.[/quote]

There are tons of other things you can merch. What about scrolls, mastery books, gear,

Meh once you can merch equips in the range of 3~5B, then you can make profits of 2~3B.
But it takes a week or two to sell each equip :x

Selling things takes a while to pick up, and then it just takes a while after that anyways.
Just go play around with the events and you'll be set.

I would tell you how I've been making a bil over winter break, but I don't my business to be ruined

i think using tempest coins to buy something in there is a good way to make money

Take advantage of people.

Game's full of impulsive, impatient, reckless, uninformed, and stupid people. The free market is like a magnet for them. Like lemmings, they pile into the entrance, ready to sell their stuff at below-average prices because they know that without a shop permit -- without NX cash, essentially -- selling in the entrance is their only option. And since FM browsing has never been easier, the only way the entrance-folks can compete with a shop is to gouge their own prices. And that's the thought process of the logical seller. There aren't many. Lots of people in the entrance want a quick sale; they want their money now, for some reason or another, and they don't mind underselling or they don't know that they're underselling in the first place.

See where I'm going with this? You stand in the FM buying something that most people have, like chaos scrolls or tempest items, but you set your buying price quite low. Then you wait for the newbies, the ignorant players, the desperate players, or the players who simply lack a shop -- and you take advantage of them. What's that? A tempest ring shoulder with three lines and epic potential? And you only want 30mil? Well, if you're sure, new guy! Oh, ho ho.

So you see, TS, all you have to do to make virtual money in a virtual world is ignore that nagging conscience and take advantage of people's desperation and ignorance.

What glitch?

It all depends on how many mesos you have to start. If you have 20m and you buy an aee for 8m, you can resell for 15. That's a good amount of profit.

I make about 1-5b a day depending on what I buy. I like to merch semi-godly items so anything from 300m-2b. This is an example of 3 days ago. I bought 2 30 atk rac masks for 1.2 and 1.3b each. I sold both for 2.1b that same day. Since I'm merching these semi godly items, the best way to maximize profit is to way 3-4 mushys open at once. Preferably in fm 1 or 2. I usually have 3-4 semi godlies in each of my shops,along with other smaller things. Like scrolls in bulk or evo rings, or mmb.

I started with 250m mesos. I'm sittin on about 1.2b within a day, merching without a shop. get on my level plees.

getting nx is like instant mesos

loot every coins that drop from monsters, sell its poop, rinse n repeat

Step off the clouds, boyah; There's no magical meso maker machine out there. The only possible way to gain meso wihout actually buying low and selling high would be by hunting and crafting yourself. BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUT. The chance for this to fully work goes below 2%.

What do you merch?
Items.

Buy Specs for 300m sell for 400m
Buy 6% DEX earrs 8m sell for 20m.
Etc.

all u have to do is abuse the star generator glitch

but what do i merch? :O

Take advantage of events [b]obviously[/b]

buy high
sell low
instant profits

[b]The only way[/b] to get 2b in a day is merching or buying nx o.o
