Selling...
never ask your bottom line unless you add firm at the end.
Always give in on the price a little but dont give in to drastic hagglers. Many are just resellers trying to make a buck.
Always ask yourself what is important to you. making an extra couple hundred plat on and item or spending an extra few hours selling for the price you want.
If you have many items for sale fight the urge to sell low to move the items.
Having lots to sell should be the time you are being firm with hagglers.
The logic being... you sell that one item for low to move it... your still going to be in EC selling the other items.
The crap you have left over after you sell everything else... thats the crap you drop prices on to move.
Which brings me to... dont waste time selling one item at a time in EC unless its high end or your in need of gear badly. Stockpile it up and then spend a night selling it off. Consolidate.
While you are selling crap.. keep your eyes out for under value items.
If you got 1000p and see an item like say... A Dark Reaver that can sell for 900-1100p selling for 700p. Send the guy a tell and see if he will take 500p. Dark reavers can be hard to move as its a class specific item and many people get frustrated and sell low. You might be able to pick it up at a good enough rate to make a 30-40% return on investment.
Dont wants your time with 10-20% resells... not worth the hassle or the risk.
These are some of the rules I follow.
I typed this fast and sloppy... so forgive the formatting and spelling.
