Sell prices in other towns?

[Ayaka]

All the markup prices in towns I've visited seem to have the exact same percentage, meaning I can't find anywhere to sell these goods I've found and crafted because they give me paltry money for it. Everywhere I go this one fur pouch I made is 37% exactly, every time. What am I missing here?

i think equipment & final-stage goods always sell at 37%, no matter where you go. it's a weird game design decision.

food, raw resources and intermediary products (ingots, cloth etc) can be traded between towns for profit. the max price i've sold them for is 87% or so.

So we can *never* trade at a profit? Or at least above the item's value.

not above 100%, as far as i can tell. but some towns have resources that sell for really cheap (maybe 50% and below). you can buy those then sell to a town that'll buy them for higher.

Non-resources are always 37.5% sell price, resources can sell for up to 87.5%.
(Once the war update comes weapons/armor may be able to be sold for more.)

The max cost to buy items is:
150% value *(1-0.005*Intelligence) [*0.9 if 38+ Adventuring] [*0.75 if family discount]
(If Intelligence >100 it uses 100 instead)
If the max cost to buy items is less than 87.5% it will lower the max price you can sell resources for!
(can be as low as 50.625%)

But as previous post said, you can sometime buy resources for <50% of the max sell price.
Town will often have huge stacks of cheap stuff, so it is possible to make a lot of money doing stuff like: buy 600 tin+copper ore in town A, smelt and sell the bronze ingots in town B for 5x what you paid...
Also top-end crafted items tend to have base value of 200, so turning $1 of straw into a $201 hood of a thousand eye you can sell for $75 is like printing money.

The game prices runs on a simulated supplies and demand. The demand for weapons and equipments are just not there yet.
