I may just be confused, but is not being able to buy things a bug? It's happening to me. I'll select what I wanna buy, put it in the middle column, then press accept, and nothing happens. Usuaully when I sell things the whole trade screen closes, but when I accept to buying things it stays in the trade screen, but I don't get what I accepted. I know I have money (At least I think, because I have sold like 50 items). If there is a site that can explain this trading system to me I would gladly appreciate it. I also stumbled upon a trading problem thread, and somebody said it's like, "You give me this for that" kinda thing... I tried that, but it didn't work. One more question, is there any way I can see how much money I have? Thank you

I had a major problem with this at first also. Here's how it works.

There are two columns, one for you, one for the trader. Lets say you wanted to sell a sword. You would move it into your column. You would then see that it was worth 93 ore. So then what you would do is move 93 ore from the trader into their column. THEN you would press accept.

I hope that makes sense. If not, I can try to explain better.

If you put something (say a sword) from your inventory into the trade window and put nothing from the vendor's inventory and then press accept - it will perform the trade. However, since you didn't put anything from his inventory into the trade window, it is like telling him you will trade the sword for nothing - that is, you are giving him the sword for free.

This can also help:
use + left/right turn = 1 item per click
use + left/right strafe = 10 items per click
use + left/right turn + shift = 100 items per click

Huh, when I figured that I was giving avay my hard obtained stuff for free, I got so traumatized that had to beat up somebody just to feel better. So I took Mud to the forest and all you can guess what happened.
