Trade
From WoWWiki
Trading is the way players exchange items, money and some services.
How to trade with other players
1. Click on the player character (or use a hotkey to select them), right-click on their portrait, and select Trade.
2. A window will appear with several areas:
- The left pane shows what you wish to trade, with item slots and a place to enter any money (, , and/or ) you wish to pay.
- The right pane shows what your target wishes to trade, with several item slots.
- A special "no-trade" slot at the bottom-left.
3. Add the items you want to trade or expose and/or currency you want to trade on the left side:
- Drag items you want to give to the other player in the upper slots.
- Drag an item you want to expose to have some effect (an enchantment usually) applied to it in the special "no trade" slot at the bottom.
Some example effects that can be applied via the trade window:
4. Enter any money (, , and/or ) you want to give in the entry fields at the bottom.
NOTE: A warning alert will appear asking you to confirm the trade of money before the trade completes, if you decide to do that.
5. Click the Trade button and your area (the left side) will become highlighted in green. If the player you are trading with clicks their Trade button, their area (the right side) will become highlighted in green also and the trade will complete.
NOTE: If anyone changes the items in their pane, their pane will un-highlight and the Trade button needs to be clicked again.
