The red paperclip story involved a lot of trades of things that can't usually be purchased:
- an afternoon with alice cooper - a recording contract - a role in a movie These things, while not worth much to those offering, may be worth a lot to those who don't have these opportunities. The problem you will run into to, is everything you will trade in EU has a similiar value to everyone. You have to be a great trader and increase your value a little each time in EU, because no one is going to offer a high value item at a ridiculous discount. This will take hundreds to thousands of trades and one bad trade could set you back 100 good trades. You need to find items that can't be easily bought and sold that might be worth a great deal to someone. Trading sweat, dung, armour parts, etc. isn't going to get you very far, unless you happen to find several generous people. Good luck ![]() |

As far as i have heard, the paperclip thing was based on communication and travelling around while talking to people.. Don't think the guy put up ads that he wanted to trade this or that for something more in value.
So you're starting from the wrong foot. But again.. i may be wrong... |

I did not realize that there were so many people on here that were so eager to crap all over someone else's dreams. At least Snake_eyes is trying to do something. I say + rep to Snake_eyes, and good luck! Just my

Quick update. Lykke and I finally managed to meet up and make the trade. Lykke threw in 80 fruit as part of the trade which i'll pass on along with the dung to norbet for the exa leather shirt male.
Here's a screenshot of the trade being done. Apologies for the size I will figure out how to resize pictures in here on the next one ![]() Also I have committed to trading these items with norbet so what will you people offer me for a exa leather shirt Male? |
