Coin Shops or Marketplace?

[Nick]

Which is better a coin shop or market place. I always start up a coin shop cause they are easy but i find it annoying when people come in and look on the market place after you've told them the price so you might as well sell on the market place which is a pain cause its all 1 by 1 and if you want the credits you have to do the stupid tax thing. so which one would be better?

Well, sell in a coin shop for the market place price but without the 1c tax and waiting for the other 100 listed to sell. Only thing is, the marketplace will be seen by more people nik

Shops are for making quick profits and bulk buying, marketplace is for lazy folk that cba to look for stuff. If you have the time to wait, put your items in the marketplace.

I like to use the Marketplace for rares or things like that where I can raise the price slightly (that never works in shops for me).

Smaller items, you're probably better making a shop? idk it depends if you have the patience.

I can't remember the last time I didn't use the marketplace

Only use the MP if the item is cheapish and I am desperate for the item.

both have good and bad points.

probably mp for me. you can still sell stuff while offline

I thought shops weren't that popular anymore, but there are so many people who actually still go to them and I manage to sell a lot in shops. The Market Place is usually a little slower, which is great for when you're offline, but they both have their bad sides too. I use both often though!

Coin Shops are best for if you have lots of items and you're trying to make profit, from say buying or selling. Marketplace are better for more expensive items that you may be trying to sell. I find if its under 10c, to not bother really with the marketplace. I can admit to being super lazy and buying from marketplace most of the times, but that's because I find when I go to shops I can never find certain items. Usually its when i no longer need the item I find it. So yeah, not to get off topic if you have a lot of items Id just recommend a coin shop :)

I miss the days of having to track down an item in little furni shops and the owner going into the back rooms to look for you.

Marketplace really took the fun out of trading.

i use marketplace to buy because i cba searching shops and if i have a lot of stuff to sell i make a coin shop

[Stadiums]

I try to use shops as much as possible because you can usually get deals, after a while I just go to the Marketplace though because it's so much easier.

I took inspiration from this thread and posted a load of stuff in the market place to see what I get :P

[Bloop]

I use both but these days when I cba wait in a shop cuz thrs so much to do, just pop everything into the mp woo.

Also mp if the price is rigged or just higher than avg
