So, we get shut of the traders? I used to do a lot of trading when i first started in
PE. It did'nt actually make me that much money at first, so what did I do? I deposited again.
I put in 5000peds there abouts and bought bigger items....then sold em. I also had a lot of players, who would never even think of standig in a town to sell, so I did it for them and split the proffit.
Granted, there are a lot of traders who have never placed a penny in the game, but there are plenty who do. Trading for some people is not essential, but enjoyable.
There are a lot of players, who we all enjoy spending time with and have struck up some good friendships that have to trade to be able to play.
I would hate to think that the only people who I could meet were players who were all fortunate enough to be able to invest.
What makes this game great, is that everyone has a shot. With the inclusion of sweating, and in the earler days just the oil rig, it means that people can come in, and hopefully stay in.
Trading is here to stay, make no mistake about that. The trick is to use the traders to your own advantage. A good trader will get you the best price available for your item/s and allow you to continue with your own chosen proffession.
