Method 2 of 6:Trading With Other Players
Method 2
-
1Find a buyer or seller. If you have mined some coal and want to sell it, go to a busy area and yell, "Selling coal(insert amount you want to sell for here)(your user)!"
-
2Look for someone who wants to buy your coal. Right-click on their character. Select the "Trade" option. The other player will be informed of your request. They will click on your character and will also select the "Trade" option. Or they will look for you. If they request to trade than click on the words (user) wants to trade.
-
3Wait until a screen appears. The items on the left are what you are offering to trade. The items on the right are what the other player is offering. To add an item to your offer, click on it in the inventory box. To add multiples of the same object, right-click on the object. Click on the "Offer x" option to select the number you wish to offer. If you want to remove an item from the trade, just click on it in the Offer window and it will be removed.
-
4Decide if you are happy with the trade. Then press the green Accept button. If you change your mind, just hit the red Decline button.
-
5Wait until a final confirmation screen appears if you do accept. This gives you one last chance to check the trade you are about to complete. Make sure you are happy with what is being offered. Then press accept for the last time.
-
6Be careful when trading! There is no way to reverse a trade once it's completed. Some players may try to trick you by saying they'll give information in return for items, or promising to give the item right back to you. It's best not to trust offers like this.Advertisement

3To withdraw an item from your inventory, you will have two choices. You can simply withdraw the item. If it is a trade able item that does not stack in your inventory, such as ore or food, you can withdraw it as a "Note." The advantage of this is that the item won't take up a lot of space in your inventory, but you can still sell it or trade it. For the most part, though, you can't use or wield an item that has been drawn as a note.

4Click on the Swap or the Insert buttons. There are there yo help organize your screen. If you choose Swap, just drag and drop an item on your Bank Screen on top of another item; they will swap positions.
