If you ran a 1 star trade from Jangan to Donwhang and another one from Jangan to Constantinople, would your income be the same? What does the amount of money you get depend on (except the number of stars)?

i believe that the trade form donwhang to const would get you more money because it also depends on the distance that you go aswell as the star rank. But im new so someone with more experience might tell us both different.

Most Jangan cities have a +20% tax. I would recommend Samarkand => Constantinople because of that.

Otherwise, Jangan => Donwhang is quite profitable... but darn the taxes.

Correct, longer distance trading yields higher profits.
Logically speaking, this is because common items from one city, are rare and valuable in other cities. The farther away it comes from, the more valuable it will be.

Yeah, I thought it would be something like that. Anyone know what the profit would be if I went from Jangan to say Constantinople? 1* on a Thoroughbred.

Do Sam to Const Twice with assorted items and you'll make quite a bit of gold.

If I remember well I got around 700 k gold for a jan - constanz trade 1* but with fire bull after deduction of the pots that it took me. Thoroughbred should be a bit lower. The amount of gold that you receive depends indeed of the rarity of the items sold, so the further your trading distance the better the profit.

Before starting the trade, it takes more than 2 hours to finish it, so be sure that you will be able to stay online for quite some playing time.
