Re: plan on creating a vender but need help...

You can sell just about anything you can think of.

Some ideas:
- Leather from monsters/animals
- Crafted goods (scrolls if you have a scribe, weapons if you have a blacksmith, armor if you have a tailor, etc)
- Loot from monsters (jewelry, armor, etc)

What kind of character do you have?

You might want to look around the shops in Luna to get some ideas for things to sell.

Re: plan on creating a vender but need help...

*nods* My fellow merchants have it aright. We need alot more info inorder to really give you guidance. Some suggestions though
uocraft.com- vendors

For advanced tips:
Paul Mart Marketing Tips

For a visual of well run vendors, and ideas of what to sell, create a character on Lake Austin and come give Kitiara and I a visit. We are seconds away from the Umbra moongate.

Re: plan on creating a vender but need help...

Bags of sending and the powders to refill them, on Lake Superior they sell very fast.

Recall scrolls if you aren't overpriced. I sell 100 for 3250 and sell around 2000 scrolls per week. Recently I have seen a few people looking for Blade Spirits and Energy Vortex scrolls.

I stay away from armor since (on Lake superior) there are very and I mean very many of them.

When I first started my vendors, I made almost no profit and that was fine since I wanted people to get to know me. Many people on Lake Superior recognize the Bubba name when they see my shops and that has allowed me to take a little more markup and profit. Just treat everyone like you would want to be treated and the business will come. No matter what you sell.

Re: plan on creating a vender but need help...

Please be aware! The mistake I made, they can only hold so many items on a vendor and only so much weight, I learned that the hard way when trying to put all carpentry goods on one vendor

I think the only way to be making millions nowadays is to be doing doom runs and selling the artis and rewards. On top of that tokens seem to do well as well but its finding them cheap and selling them at a more expensive price

Re: plan on creating a vender but need help...

Collection rewards seem to sell for high prices (700k to 1 mil minimum-ish). (Vesper Museum collection, Zoo collection, etc).

When you find that get-rich-quick scheme, let me know. I can't seem to find one.
