Since premium currency is becoming more frequent, along with items being traded for over the 1bil vending limit, there are certain precautions that both players can take in order for the trade to go smoothly. The prices mentioned below are all on the Chaos Renewal Server.
Please note that KP/WPE trades are not supported by the GM staff, and because of that, advertising the trade of WPE sale or KP sale ( in points) is not tolerated on forums.
(do not start start advertising in the market section that you are SELLING any sort of KP or WPE)
WPE:
Currently, the average price for WPE is about 220m/1k WPE. This always fluctuate depending on upcoming upgrading events and OCP. With a highly sought after item (mob scarf) and an incoming over refine event WPE will be in more demand.
The trade in WPE is very dangerous for the person who goes first. I highly recommend dealing between friends and guildies before finding strangers to sell it to. To sell WPE, visit this link and you will be directed to the gift card creation page by signing in with your warp portal account. You have the option of turning your WPE points into 1k, 2k, or 3k codes into a redemption code that starts with the letters EPT followed by an assortment of numbers.
Once you have a buyer, someone must give the other person the CODE or the ZENY first:
- If the person wants you to give the code first, you gift them the code. They will redeem it and confirm to you that the code works. Then the person who received the code will deal you the agreed price that he wanted to pay for.
- If the person steals your code, you can only report it and the GMs might reverse the trade or do nothing, who knows.
- If the person gives you the zeny first, you just take it and give them the code afterwards. They will confirm your code works and that's the end of it.
- If the person says the code doesn't work, THEY COULD BE LYING. Redeem the code yourself. If it says "The Code Was Already Redeemed." Then it's more than likely that the person is trying to swindle you.
If you are buying WPE from someone, the same applies except if the person takes your zeny first and doesn't give you the code (i.e. log off after taking zeny), the most the GMs will do is ban that account and you will NOT get your zeny back; assuming you will report the scam.
Kafra Points:
Selling kafra points are very similar to WPE except that you must purchase the item from the kafra shop. The most common price at the moment seems to be at 100 kp = 14m-17mil.
Before you attempt to sell the person anything, make sure you have enough points to get the players what they need. So if a person has a chat up saying "B>100kp = 14m", it generally means they want to purchase items that costs more than 100 kp. So even if you have 100 kp to sell, it's very unlikely that someone will find what you have useful to buy for only 100 kp.
Assuming you do have a decent amount (lets say 2000 kp), the buyer will tell you to buy something like Giant Flywing Box for 500 kp. If you are paying it at 14m per 100, it simply means 14 x 5, which in this case is 70m for the box. You deal the person, give that person the box, that person gives the zeny, and that's it.
If the buyer happens to not be honorable with their trade, don't worry. Most kafra items are worthwhile and can be revended or sold to another player. So if the person who wanted the Gwings didn't want it anymore, you can put up a chat for 70m and someone will probably come by and buy it.
THESE ITEMS ARE NOT RECCOMENDED TO SELL TO OTHER PLAYERS:
- Token of Siegfried (self res tokens)
- Insurance (no exp penalty on death)
- Magical Stone Box
- Battle/Job/Gum Boxes
- Anything sold by the Eden Merry Badger
Most of the time, players who requests to buy these items are trying to scam you and waste your points. Your safest will generally be refinement ores, giant fly wings, hair coupons, and heavy lifter boxes.
Lastly, be careful of character bound items that are similar in name. You can buy an individual item like "HD Bradium" that costs 15 kp that is not tradeable between accounts. Or you can buy "HD Bradium 5 Box" which is tradeable. Generally, boxed items are tradeable minus the OCP boxes.
TRADING ITEMS WORTH OVER 1bil zeny:
Unfortunately, due to how old this game is, the maximum trade and vend limit is capped at 999,999,999z. (in otherwords, 1bil).
There is an insane number of kafra items that are worth over 1bil and making sure the deal is fair is more important than ever. The key is to document by typing in /savechat and pressing PRNT SCRN on your keyboard.
Let's use the example, MOB SCARF 
, which is currently being valued at 2.1bil (even though ragial says 1bil, the vendors were selling it based on the vending limit cap).
To transact this trade, both players must agree on the price and type it in their chat.
- Player A (has scarf): Your 2.1bil for my Mob Scarf.
- Player B (has zeny): I agree, my 2.1bil your Mob Scarf.
Once written agreement is made, both players take a screenshot and save the chat. Then it will go down to trust between the players. There are multitudes of ways to do this, but the most common is listed below.
- Player A gives the scarf first and Player B trades with the first 999,999,999z in the initial transaction. Then Player B continues to pay another 999,999,999z until the 100mil payment is made.
- Player A may want 1bil first, then Player A gives the mob scarf after receiving the second 1bil in the 2nd transaction. Player B then finishes it by giving Player A the last 100m.
- Player B gives all 2.1bil first, then Player A gives the scarf on the last transaction.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The maximum your character can hold is 2,147,483,647 zeny. So you might have to bring another character to hold zeny once you reach that limit.
Alternative way to complete the transaction (can take much longer): Player A leaves the Scarf on 1 character without moving it, Player B leaves the zeny on certain characters. Both players must send in a ticket mentioning the names of the character that has the item/zeny. The GMs will complete the transaction for you. This can take up to days or weeks, but it is the safest method. Players typically go this route when items are worth over 40bil or so, where the stakes are extremely high.
If one person backs out on the agreement, you can send in a ticket and the GMs will reverse the scam for you.

I hope everyone keep their wallet safe tonight. If there are any more questions, feel free to post then and I will update anything that was missed.
