[HowTo] Trade Shop

Hello all players and community,

This thread will demonstrate and explain Trade Shops in detail, and give a simple but understandable tutorial showing how to set up and operate a Trade Shop, as I thought it would be handy to have a tutorial on Forums.

Step 1: Work out what item you want to trade, and what you want to trade it for. For example, say I'm a player who wants to trade 64 Cobblestone for 1 Grass Block.

Step 2: In order to create the Trade Shop, you'll need: 1 Single Chest, 1 Sign, and some building blocks. You need to organise them so that there is a block behind the chest and above the chest. An example is attached
Step 3: Get your sign and place it above the chest. You'll need to organise the sign in the following way:

First Line: [Trade]
Second Line: What you are trading, for example: 64 Cobblestone (You can also use the Item ID)
Third Line: The item a player will be trading in order to "purchase" your Cobblestone, example: 1 Grass
Fourth Line: Your username, example: Finical

Step 4: You need to open the Trade Shop chest, and place the item you are trading inside. Make sure you leave at least 1 space in the chest for currency to be collected.

Now you've successfully created a Trade Shop!
