How to Short Sell Items on MB

[IIBEEFCAKESII]

This isn't really selling short, it's more consignment.

Selling short would be you having a item in your retainer, and your retainer selling it at current prices in hopes of buying it cheaper later on without telling you.

No it is not consignment. Consignment is when someone gives another person an item to sell and the return is strictly currency or product that differs from the original item. P2's item is being returned, w/ potential interest.

2nd, short selling is not malicious. Short selling is borrowing something from someone who has what is called a LONG position and returning w/ the borrower GAINING in the short term (original holder profiting slightly). Hence the word "Short".

A quick Google will give you the definition.
