THIS HAS BEEN EDITED, I SHOW THE EDITED PART AT THE BOTTOM. I HAVE AROUND 270M MESOS, I DON'T PLAN ON TELLING EXACTLY HOW OR WHY I MADE MY MONEY, THIS IS JSUT FOR STARTERS Okay so here is how i made my first 10 Million Mesos. I'm thinking about making a full-fledged Guide on this subject, so add Items/Prices in the Comments, and if i prove it to be working I'll add it to the list. :0 NOTE: A Shop Permit is HIGHLY recommended for this, as it brings an extreme amount of extra profit. (1.8k NX) 1) Clean Work Gloves Buy Price: 75k (5k per Leather is recommended) Sell Price: 200-400k 2) Bathrobe for Men Buy price: About 100k Sell Price: 200k and over 3) 10 Percent Dex Scrolls Buy Price: Around 1.5m Sell Price: 2m Edit: ( ROUGH CUT PLAWKS) Merchanting Smarts A.K.A Common Sense General Information: For all people Merchanting takes some time patience and dedication. These are the key ingredients to a good profiable Merchanter. Store Permits can be bought in the cash shop for 1.8k NX and increase profits by a huge amount (actual percentages unknown) But if you have no Store Permit a Auto Typer is a must. Merhcanting also takes experience. Experience is key to knowing prices of various items. How i got experience is going through the FM and looking at items that have been bought. But I also gained experience by just being in the FM Entrance for so long. Methods of Merchanting: 1. FM Entrance Buying This is the most used and usually items are bought in Bulk. Items bought in Bulk have much more profit than bought one at a time. 2. FM Scouting Many times in the FM people will misprice an item and forget to add an extra 0. This is where you come in and quickly buy the item. Personaly i have fallen victim to this in my shop and I find at least one of these mistakes every day. 3. Basil Market Buying Many people go on Basil Market. This means you can get more deals and more varieties of items. Usually people will Snipe an item (Out-bid an item at the last seconds). Prices to get you started making millions: 1. Work Gloves (cleaned) Buy: 200k Sell: 250k-400k 2. Bathrobe for Men Buy: 20k Sell: 200k 3. 10 percent Dex Scrolls Buy: 1.5m Sell: 2m

Indeed making Wg's is really easy. You just need leathers and something else. People are ready to buy it for 200k Buying and reselling Bathrobes won't work because people can easily access Singapore anyways. Doing the Icy quests in Hauted Mansion/Crimsonwood mountain is good. Buy icies for 2k, resell for 100k.. And do the GFA 60% quest at lv 36 (Subanys Legacy - Discovery) and the ludi quests that gives a GFA 60%.

id love to see this expanded up to 100m+, would be a great guild except for the fact it stops very early on in the world of merching. (plus each world has a different economy, trying this could cost you a lot in some worlds or get you no wheres in others.)

wgs i agree w/ b.robes (hell no, smart ppl will go to showa town) 10% dex is merchanting for nubs so just go make wgs with leathers and sell em... or buy for 50k and sell for 200k takes a while though so merchanting is better ;) w/ better items of course - (pacs, deps, wgw/atk, et cetera)

although its cool that u made your first 10mil, its very common for maplers to be much more wealthy becuz they buy nx, even if you cant buy nx where you live, theres still nx credits, u can gach and get a marriage, although its a good idea for you to merch, you are looking at the situation at a very small scale of mesos. buying 10k nx is a very profittable investment

LOL @ ^ Listen buddy, don't start writing guides on how to make cash. There are already tons in the stickies. Maybe you should pay more attention to that, huh? I think you're desperately trying to showoff. All of these ways to make mesos have been known for ages. So yes you do need lectures.
