good items to sell are mostly forces,laxes,textures,hairs and 3d items but for the last 2 you have to chek people threads and how fast they get sold in market...ect
i'd also suggest staying away of misc except if you get it insanly expencive coz they are damn hard to sell.
now for how to start:just open a big buying thread and sell items on market for high prices and never buying an item that is closely priced to market
This. The Price Check Megathread is always a good place to ask but don't trust any price some people might give since sometimes they'll give a really bogus price on an item...
Like Question: "How much does KFMB go for these days?"
Wrong Answer by Toribashian 1: around 200k-300k
Right Answer by Toribashian 2: I just sold mine for 160k. They usually go for 120-160k
So the Price Check Megathread will sometimes be untrustworthy unless you really trust the guy who answered your query.
Alternatively, you can ask around ingame, irc, or PM people especially big game marketers.
Anything that isn't a collectors item or some miscs, not all, should be good things to sell.
I also suggest you buy and sell through PM most of the time, it's more easier and less cluttered.
Lowballing isn't a good thing to do most of the time if you don't want to get your rep tarnished to shit. But yeah as what Alpha said use it as a last resort if you don't know the price so you'll have a bit of leverage when buying stuff.
Well, that's about all the advice I could give I guess. A [B] thread seems cool but I kinda don't like it... A lot of people tend to highball when it comes to the forums but I digress, I might try it also.
PM me or post here if you have any more questions, and why not join us?
