Maple Story News & Events & Guides

Buying and Selling is one of the most important activities done in Maplestory. Mesos are the currency used in maple story mesos and without it you will not get anywhere. This guide will help you with the many problems of Buying and Selling.

Selling - Free Market

The first way to make some mesos is by using the Free Market also known as the FM. When you have something of value (example: ore, rare equipment, quest items) which you don't need, why keep them? Instead, free up your inventory space while earning some  maple story mesos on the Free Market! This process of selling in the FM can be quite stressful, though. There are many scammers, "noobs", and other users who can take advantage of you, so be careful. When you have something you want to sell, make sure you follow these steps.

How to Sell

Price Check. Check the average price of your item. You can ask a friend, use  maple story mesos Help Sites (such as MapleTip or Basilmarket - a site used just for buying/selling  maple story mesos items), or just use the NPC x1.5 Method. This method requires you to go into any store, double click on the NPC (Non-Player Character) Shop-owner who's there, and check to see how much they will buy your item for. Now, just multiply their price by 1.5. This works for some items, but not all though, so be careful. Since the shop usually buys the items for 1/2 the price it's bought, you would basically be selling the item for 75% of it's total value. Some items such as snowboards and other event items may only sell at 1 meso at the shops so use your common sense and maplestory mesos check at a site.
