Auction and Trade Help!
Written by xxtinkrebellaxx
The first thing you need to know about auctions and trades is: ALWAYS LOOK FOR THE LOWEST DEAL. It may seem obvious, but sometimes the right trade slips right by, so keep your eyes open!!!
To go to auctions now. The best way to bid on an auction is to bid on a "ghost
auction". These auctions have 5 or less bids every hour. Personally, I bid ONLY when the amount of time left in the auction is <30 minutes because you have a better chance of getting it then.
If you are the one MAKING the auction, here are some helpful hints. First of all, make sure you check the auctions BEFORE you make it, so you can set the first price lower than all of the other prices. make the minimum increment at most 3% of the original price. In other words, if the item you are auctioning is 800 neopoints, make sure you make the minimum increment under 100 neopoints.
For trades, ALWAYS look for the lowest price. Don't do anything that says 'anything above
(number) is auto'. That means that they are probably waiting to get that asking price, and most likely it will be overpriced.
If you are the person MAKING the trade, be clear on your price. If you say, "You and I both know what this is
worth", you won't be clear, and they won't know how much you want, be it more or less than the average price of that item. Make sure you say something in the wishlist, and make sure it is understandable.
Don't say [dat ting im actunin iz wort lyke 4,000,000 nyopointszz]. It may seem obvious, but again, some people
aren't at all clear in their messages.
So, after reading this guide you should have a pretty good idea of how to go about doing trades and auctions. Just remember, if it seems too good to be true, it probably is.
Don't give in to auction scamming and trade scamming.
