Hello there people! A lot of people don't know how to create a trade sign (for selling) so here you go!
Step 1
Create a sign. On the first line simply type in [Trade]
Step 2
Press enter to skip to line 2. On this line put the price people will pay for each amount they buy (the amount will be placed in line 3.)
Example: $25
Step 3
Go down to line 3. This is where it gets tough.
First off put the amount of the item people will buy each time. Let's use 1 for example.
Then put a space. Then put the item name or id (ids can be found at http://www.minecraftinfo.com/IDList.htm).
For this example, I'll use flower.
Then put a colon ( : ) and following the colon place the amount of the item you have in the inventory.
So let's say I have 2 flowers. It would look like
1 flower:2
Then you can click done and voila! You're done.
*Extras*
Some notes and advice.
1) Let's say you want to add the item with id 17:1.
Put a ; instead of the :.
You may also use a ".".
for example 17;1 or 17.1 would be the item's id, the rest of the sign would remain the same.
2) Some people often wonder why there is a :0 in the trade sign and mimic it when they're creating a trade sign, resulting in failure. DO NOT INCLUDE THE :0 IN THE TRADE SIGN! It occurs automatically to represent the value of the money your trade sign has accumulated.
3) To collect money from a trade sign, right click it. To restock an item, hold the item and right click it (this will also collect the money.)
