First off props to czeuch as his post inspired me to start this... I pretty much farm every game I play, be it for some special item or for resources to buy those items. I do it as if I'm some sort...
Nice one and thanks for the mention!
I never realized that I could access the HQ from the city I'm visit. Dumb... :P
Another tip is that you should always try as much as you can to make upgrades and disasters with your own resources. It might take longer but it's more profitable.
I'm in a SCB group and I see a few people that are OFTEN asking for items, hence reducing drastically the profit.
Thanks for the advice. Another thing I would suggest is get items you know you will need eventually when you see them cheap. It seems the more you need something the harder it is to get that item. For example. Yesterday I needed five exhaust pipes and 4 dozer shovels to expand an area. Well I picked up a couple of those items during the course of game play. Well i was running out of storage room so I went to the trade hq to buy the 2 each of the items I needed. Well it took sometime to find some and even longer to find ones that weren't sold by the time I got to the city. Whereas yesterday while looking for other items the exhaust and dozer shovels were aplenty.
Well that's the biggest rule for the market:
IF YOU WANT SOEMTHING, YOU WILL NOT GET IT.
Indeed so much of farming is about oppertunistic buying at this point. No doubt about that.
