6.8.1 Selling Things
(See HELP MARKET, HELP ADS, HELP CREDIT TRANSFER, HELP CREDIT MARKET, HELP COMMS, HELP RATS, HELP FISHING, HELP SELLING VIALS, and HELP SHOPS) You can sell just about anything if you know where or to whom! Have a sword you no longer need? One of the land's many practitioners of forging would be willing to take it off your hands. Did you just milk 5 vials of curare? One of the land's many warriors will surely buy them.

The easiest ways can be on the market channel or with ads. Other options relate to credits and becoming a shopowner. MARKET - after level 11 or so you can use the market channel to look for adventurers to buy things from you. (HELP MARKET) ADS - Advertisements are an alternative to MARKET. (HELP ADS) CREDITS - Transfer/sell credits to other adventurers (HELP CREDIT TRANSFER) or use the credit market. (HELP CREDIT MARKET) RATS - Ashtan, Hashan, Targossas, Cyrene, and Mhaldor each have a denizen that will buy rats from you. (HELP RATS) FISH - Tasurke, Shastaan, and Minia have fish buyers (HELP FISHING). COMMS - Commodities may be bought and sold at comm shops (HELP COMMS). SHOPS - You could become a shopowner. This can be extremely expensive. Shops may be available from their current owners, or their cities. (HELP SHOPKEEPING) Some Things That Should be Pretty Easy To Sell (And To Whom!) ------------------------------------------------------------- weapons - try asking a forger who can smelt. armour - try asking a forger who can smelt. Persons - Slaves and Otherwise ------------------------------ You cannot auction, sell, or offer for rent, lease, loan, or any other form of use or transfer, persons or people. Services are fine. Slave auctions happen, but they must always clearly and explicitly mention that services - not persons - are for sale or being offered for whatever purpose - lease, rent, loan, etc. That means clearly and explicitly EVERY TIME it is mentioned, not just once at the beginning of the auction.
