Jude's Guide to Shady Dealing
So I've noticed that no money making guides contain several clever ideas I have come up with and see around, most of which can essentially double the amount gained from any given source of money. However, they may be considered dishonest by players, as I know from personal experience. Quiet a few also require having a small fortune, maybe 200-300k before hand. So be warned, that though these can increase efficiency greatly, they can also cause a grudge.

RULES TO SHADY DEALING

Rule one: Never share more information then you have to. Especially in dinosaur trades. Some people don't appreciate you immediately selling or studding the GP dinosaur you plan to buy from them.

Rule two:
If you use method one, you should stay away from buying dinosaurs for bid on the boards. You want to keep things quiet.

Rule three:
Buy as many once a year items as you can.

Rule four: If how you plan to use something is specified against by the seller, don't even buy it. Buying and using it anyway could cause a complaint thread, which could lead to lack of mod intervention, which could lead to a suggestion thread, which could lead to a change in the game, which could lead to a destruction of your way of life.

METHODS TO SHADY DEALING

Method one:
Step One: Buy many dinosaurs.

Step Two: Put them up for sale at their original price plus 3-5k, OR stud them for their original price, if it's a good dino.

I have not actually tried this one, but I am sure it would work.

Method Two: This method is perhaps the most questionable. Let's say you have a GP dinosaur, with great stats.

Step One: You post a thread, saying people must pay X amount to stud with them. Make it a bargain.

Step Two: Say that you would like to split the clutch in the thread.

Step Three: Sell your chick.

Works especially well with recently released non-lab dinos.

Method Three:
I myself have been frustrated by this before.
Step One: you must buy the market completely dry of any given item, be it shelf item, perfection potion, fruit vine items, ect.

Step Two: Put them in your shop, for a much higher price.

Works especially well with items such as holiday plushies and perfection potions.

Method Four:
Perhaps the least questionable of all.

Step One: Buy many lab dinos

Step Two: Breed them for color alone, and do it as much as possible

Step Three: Sell the terrible offspring for as cheap as you can imagine a dinosaur being.

This method works especially well during a time in which there are more new users then usual.


So yeah, this extremely helpful guide is now over. If I think of any more methods towards or important rules for shady dealing, or any more are suggested, I'll edit and put them in. Also, don't yell at me. I'm pretty sure none of these are against the game rules. ;)
