This cant be done in normal business ways, the fact we all produce massively different amounts and have different stockpiles of uu already makes it to difficult to have a profit sharing layout of anytype.

The best way i see it is to:
a) all those involeved work out a price that goods will be sold at.
b) having worked out price a thread will be opened in the relevent sections advertising goods for sale under a guild name
c) the guild will have on contact msn (the only centralised part of the guild).
d) central msn has all members of msn, as orders are requested to the centre they will be giving out to those best suited, ie an order for 5mil wont be sent to someone with 50kup and nothing atm.
e) having price in more than one currency and members listed by prefered currency - this limits losts from exchanging.
f) a record will be kept of members stock levels that will be updated on everyother day.

this is how i would run things anyone wants to be involved with this post your msn here and i will get the ball rolling.

as i am on gmt time someone from the US would be needed cover the times i am off. a few reps would also be need to spread our good name around.

my msn is mailto:patrickmartin18@hotmail.com if anyone wants to talk to me there.

He said nothing about money mate, most resources will be traded for ingame goods not cash. If someone is interested soley in cash and wants to buy from a respected and honest dealer instead of a no named n00b who might scam him then wheres the problem?

There are way to many scammer/cheater threads about bum deals so I feel this is a good thing, but thats just my opinion.

impatience. people want quick sales quick money. before i took a break from selling i was getting $70 per mil. i only sold uu every 2 or 3 days but its better than selling at $45 per mil.

one element of having us all sell trough one name would be to maintain and level up the prices of goods.

that is a nice idea, but it will only work if evrey single trader is in this, if evrey one is in except,... me for example, you can raise prices as much as you want, and all you will get is no buyers, becouse evrey one will buy at me for 50 % of your price

not that i'm trying to sabb your idea, i think it's a great one, and i would join it, if Muaddibzz wouldn't be saying evreyone i'm a scamer

but it just won't work my friends

yes it would because if we hav the bulk of the traders in this then it would'nt matter what others are selling at they may get most/all the deals for a little while but you would run out of resources to trade and then ppl would start trading with us and our rep would grow that we are honest and fair traders.

correct me if i'm wrong but thats just the way i believe it would work
