Often, I'll see items put up in the item trades for ridiculous prices. And no, I don't mean expensive, but I'll see things put up for 123456789 or something. Is there a purpose for this? Does putting things in the sales take it out of your inventory so people use it as storage? I thought that wasn't possible...

I'm fairly certain that's the reason, it may not open up warehouse spaces, but you can accumulate more items of the same type this way. If you have 999 vermilion, you can put a lot of it in trades so you can get 1000+.

I wondered about this as well. Surely nobody was expecting to actually sell these crazy lots.

"If you have 999 vermilion, you can put a lot of it in trades so you can get 1000+."

What, really? So if you have no room left in the inventory, when the trade finishes, the items get added back in, for thousands+ ? I thought 999 is an absolute cap and anything extra is lost - as happens with spare materials from golems or quests.

Would be great if someone can confirm this trick works. :)

Not exactly like that Marans, you keep putting it in auctions. So if you have 1200 vermilion, you put 700 of it in trades for 30+ days, then you get 700 more, which you put in auctions again, so 1400 in auctions out of 1900. When the first 700 ends, you put the other 500 in there so you have artifical space. So now you have 700 in inventory, and 1200 in auctons. Rinse and Repeat.
