| You should have a broader merching approach. Learning prices take time but is worth it in the long run. Expand your knowledge of maple prices. . Its hard to merch gfa's since everyone knows their prices anyway :/ |

Its cause evan hypes gone down so much as attack classes are gaining ground again :P Just wait for another 1.5-2 weeks for maple event. there be money to be made |

[/quote] Mercher's thrive off of people not knowing prices. So if you chose an item that is relatively good in price and is not as popular. You should do fine. However, there is always that one mapler who comes along not knowing anything on an item ^^. Still, that can take much time. My best advice would be to try work gloves. Especially hammered work gloves, most people tend to not know prices. Good luck. |
