Introduction
Hello, and welcome to my guide on "The power of the Marketplace!" I only started playing this a week or two ago, and I discovered the Marketplace to be super useful in getting items you can't find in a mission, or to buy the next armor set that you want. I want to spread the knowledge of this so everyone can have a chance of getting that new armor set that they might need or that new super-powerful weapon.

At level 18, I was sitting at more than a million gold.
What to sell
There are multiple items that you can sell. But the main item that is easy to obtain and is worth A LOT is Magic Powder. The standard price for a Magic Powder is 33,348 Gold each. You can find Magic Powders from any crate or pot in any dungeon, and they can be dropped from Wisps, Bryialne, and the Speedy Ekuloch. Put 10 of those babies up on the market, and you'll get 333,480 GP.


The next item to sell is the Blessed Magic Powder. You can sell those for 90,000 Gold each. I can't express how amazing this price is, and it's fairly easy to obtain. You can obtain Blessed Magic Powders from Eflame and Bryialne. But 10 of these up on the market, instant 900,000 Gold. Also, during the newbie quest lines, you obtain some.


The next time is Iron Ores. These babies are worth 1,600 each and are VERY easy to obtain. To obtain them, do the mission Dethrone the White Tyrant and make sure you buy Mine Bombs from the little owl in the boat area. Also, don't forget to take all your armor off. It hurts your armor when you forfiet the armor. Around the start, there's a mine to the right once you go into the first clearing. Mines look like little rocks that have gems sticking out of them. They drop two iron ores, sometimes they drop other items such as silver. The next ones will be in the place where you fight the White Tyrant, or the Coca-Cola bear xD. There'll be two mines, but you can use one mine bomb to get both of them, because they're close together. After that, you can forfiet or risk going to wards the Goblins and trigger the White Tyrant. The crystals that are sticking out of the ground can drop something called an ice crystal once you break them, which can be sold for around 5,700 a pop. It's around a 70% chance of getting one, through. Rinse and repeat, and you'll have money in no time!




How to appeal to the customers
After you have all your items that you want to sell, go ahead and head towards the Marketplace. Then, go click the Item Listing tab and drag what you want to sell into the empty box to the left of the screen. Then, you can set your price. Now, the trick with setting the price is to set it around 1-10 gold less. It'll show up first on the list and will be bought the fastest!
Conclusion
Now I know this guide wasn't long, but the Marketplace is really simple and doesn't need that much explanation. I'll be editing this guide more in the future, but I decided to put it up early because it'll help anyone that actually took the time to read my guide. Thanks for reading, you treasure-hunters!

I'm not sure it's possible for a guide like this to screw up the market. Prices naturally fluctuate over time depending on supply and demand. Sometime there are no Kobold Daggers available and you can sell for 95K+, other times there's a glut and you can't sell them for much at all. Some items have high supply and low demand; those will never be worth much. Some items, (particularly quest items) have a relatively steady demand, and the supply fluctuates. If the price to buy or sell is not what you want, wait a few days or a week and check back periodically. Works out favorably more often than not.

A week or two ago? This coincides with the big S3 events we've been having.

We saw a huge price increase in enchant related materials (magic powder, elixirs) because of the release of new enchant scrolls, new armor to enchant (Regina has recently been released), as well as many free enchants from the Ultimate Objective event.

Iron Ore farming can also be decent... but there are better alternatives. An okay guide for rookies, but not for expert players looking to afford a 170m Regina weapon feather.

Its a shame that this doesn't work anymore. Put 10 MP on the market and you still won't get 30k for 'em. :(

Guide is outdated - Most prices are lower, and therefor the guide is useless. Want to know how to get rich really fast, though? Sell Server/CH megaphones. CH 500k, Server 1 mil. Bam. It's risky, but I made 7mil off of that alone around level 20. Good luck.

PS - Trade with people you know aren't going to rip you off.

You know jerks like you and how to get rich like a jerk manuals like this are why no one ever thinks to share their powders with people. You know like their friends and Guildmates? For free? Or their items in general. Powders are valuable because it's cheaper over all to just make items in the game with your drop materials than to buy'em at the DAMN MARKET LIKE A TOOL!

why sell powders when you can sell elixirs?
