We all know we used to collect eyes of newt to gather money.

Buy from shop, sell to GE. Easy, simple.

But this method could easily be used to transfer money

any item that has a low buying point and a high selling point can be used to transfer money.


you buy eyes of newt for $5
Sell them to main for $10
Main sells to GE for $15

You have successfully transferred your $5

There must be a way to do this.

I used to buy copper/tin ores, sell to my autoer, my autoer would smelt them, and then sell back to main. This way I transferred from main to autoer. As my main had lots of money and I needed some for my autoer. Transferred 1 mil with this. (Slow method, but works).

I was thinking of that, but the worry is people ending up not buying it. Though eyes of newt are useful, they're too cheap to get in a mass quantity :(
IIRC you can only buy like 100.

Thing is, if you buy a crashing item on min (what most people do) and then sell in trade to main, you get 5% transfered and 95% loss if you can't get the item sold. So you either have to snipe rares on your main or then snipe the crap on your pure which is of the kind that will sell to get on med+

And then there's tradelimits. Can't trade infinite amounts.
