How trading works at the Exchange:
Trading in the Exchange works in a way that is a very similar to the New York Stock Market, but the prices are usually more efficiently regulated so as to prevent price fixing. Yet, the prices do change on how much of the items are being supplied, the demand for the goods, and the internationals communities own prices as the Exchange likes to keep prices low, but they will not lower to the point of being able to put other groups out of business, yet they do like to keep other group to compete with the Exchange’s prices.

Stocks (those for sale):
Current Price Per Stock: $250,000:
2,750,000 unsold Stocks

OOC: Percents of sales or profits are currently for sale and if stocks are sold they will not be given a defiant amount of money for their holding of stocks. To note I have the right to buy them back at their market price any time.

Nice Storefront.

I'm not speaking from experiance here, but why don't you include a bit more background info on how precious metal trading works?

I'm no genius, but I recon quite a few people are interested, but don't want to make a dodgy order, so are keeping their mouths shut, because they don't understand

I meant more, how to RP it.....

Buh it's just gone midnight in the UK.

I'll get back on here tomorrow, and actually type something.

Well, to rp on it basically just walk in, after going through a number of security check points and presenting all the proper paperwork, then just go to one of the labeled booths with the desired goods, fight the crowds to get to the desk, and then go the one of the booths clerks and order some of the available material, but remember that there is large completion since it is like an EXTREMLY busy day at the New York Stock Exchange.

A tall dark man dressed in a tight fitting business suit finely waltzed through the crowd. Busy, he thought.

Tiptoeing round the various desks, and the hive-like activity that surrounded them, he finally reached the desk he wanted.

The desk was home to a well known trader of commodities within the Scandinanavians, who was well known for his ability to do anything

He placed letter, sealed with the Northfordian Government crest, at the desk of a well spoken Clerk, barely waiting for the customary "Thank-you" that accompanied his propositioning

Dropping a letter off with a significant air of subtlety, he then proceeded to leave, doing so slowly, in a manner which made it very unlikely for a person to realise his "There-and-back" route within the busy building.

The Clerk, rather confused by the manner in which his employers (the Trader) new customer had acted, then proceeded to open the letter slowly, taking particular interest at the emerald green ink in which the letter was written in.

Good-Day Friend

Bumpers the clown has hit a BUMP on the road.

A finely dressed elderly gentleman walked in, and very patiently waited in line to get to the booth.

He leaned on his cane, and seemed in need of a chair.

"Greetings sir. My name is O'aka the 63rd, Director of the Ri-an department of Foreign Exchange. We're intrested in one million dollars in Platnium of your finest quality, provided there is currently that much availible." The man said.

A man at the exchange signaled to a couple of armed suit men who quickly brought out eight steel cases loaded with the platinum. Then the teller said,” Well, these it is now would that be cash or charge?”

"Lets do cash."

A couple of very strong men that may or may not have been human, carried over six cases made of fine steel.

"Their all key locked. here are the keys." O'aka said, handing over a small key ring.

The six cases were placed on the counter on the right.

OOC: I'm too tired tonight to post, but I will sometime later, Tag.

I'll keep this brief:

100,000,000 lbs of White Gold ($960 billion)
75,000,000 lbs of Platinum ($1,039.2 trillion)
100,000,000 lbs of Gold ($704 billion)
1,000,000 karats of Diamonds ($205 billion)

For a grand total of $2,908.2 trillion USD.

Currency? You poor sods still use currency? HA! Well we don't use currency but we still use precious metals, albiet it's only for powering certain advanced technologies. We no longer use currency thanks to our job-bot technology but if you can think of another exchange we might consider doing business.

OOC: By another exchange, I mean maybe you could be given some job-bot technology. Or perhaps, since our factories run at infinite capacity due to being run by job-bots, a material exchange of some sort that you could then sell or do what you like with.

When O'aka returned home, The Platnium was quickly taken.

Some for the Jewelers, who for generations upon generations had made and practiced making the finest articles of jewelery anyone could hope for.

Some went to The Treasury, to be examined for quality.

some went to the secret places of Ri-an, where it was said people of sorcerous powers dwelled.

Some went to the Aquamarinians.

All four sections quickly agreed, the Platnium was of the highest quality.

So, a letter was quickly dispatched back to the Precious metals and stones exchange.

Dearest Sirs, we are more than happy with the Quality of service and platnium provided. Therefore, on the first day of the first month of the new year, every year from this day forth, The Government of Ri-an wishes to purchase from you exactly three Trillion U.S.D. worth of Platnium, rounded upwards to the nearest ounce.
