Join an internet game where you know the prices of items (magic and otherwise) are relatively cheap (eg. Z's Escape From Undermountain module where the Yawning Inn sells Cure Serious Wounds potions for 16gp vs. 99gp in the Official Campaign ), buy up, then leave that game and join another one where you know the prices are expensive and sell there. After a while you could make a tidy profit from the spread.

But that's not why we're adventurers, right? We make money by killing things. If we wanted to make money by trading we would be merchants, or greengrocers.
I've heard this before. [img]smile.gif[/img] Evil clerics who only heal people with cash...I don't know how well it would work in this game, though, because gold is pretty easy to come by anyway.

My bank idea was really only for people too lazy to pick up every pile of 4gp they come across...it gets tedious when your third new character has 20 gold and you want to buy a new wardrobe of steel clothes.
