Help me out here guys. I'm looking for an online game that has an economy. I fucking love obtaining or buying low and selling high. For example I use to play maplestory along time ago and after level 50 I just stopped grinding and went around buy low and selling high to make millions of mesos. Thinking of ways to make profit. Having people come to me for average prices, them giving me their items so I could sell them and take a small piece for myself (I never stole because I felt that being on good terms with more people would always open doors or have another customer who might want to buy some gear from me). I even made a guild named Merchant to surround myself with people who knew about prices, sold gear, bought gear, or just wanted to know about buying and selling to make some in game money.
Fuck leveling, I had A LOT more fun from buying and selling. It was great. the only reason I would grind for a couple of levels was to be able to get strong enough to get to a new area with stronger enemies that drop more expensive and rarer drops.
Can you guys suggest me any games where I can enjoy the economy? I want to buy low and sell high. Sell lower than NPC's but higher then an NPC would give me for it. That way everyone wins.
tl;dr any online games where I can play the role of a merchant?
None.

Path of Exile when it releases ;0 although it doesn't use gold, only bartering with items. Better for trading purposes though IMHO.

EVE Online. Completely player driven economy. Once you get going you can pay for the subscription by buying gametime cards (PLEX) for in-game currency.
Honestly a fuck ton of my friends just started playing Runes of Magic. You might be able to do it quite easily on it with crafting materials as low as level 1

Sure I didn't pop off on SCBW like I wanted to, but I won VRChat. Map maker for life.
Eve Online. They even publish quarterly economic reports.
None.
Runescape now that they have free-trading lolol.
Oh yeah forgot you were poor. Eve is like 15 bucks a month. But definitely worth it. A friend of mine is creating his own Eve Clone because he hates the design choices made by CCP (The developers of Eve). Should be ready to go in about 6 months or so - I'll let you know (since it will basically be identical to Eve, but free, with less lag and poorer graphics).
But yeah, buying, selling, scamming, transporting goods, manipulating markets, manufacturing, being a middle man, courier services etc... you can do all that in Eve.
None.
EVE online yes, and if you're looking for a single player experience check out Mount and Blade and its expansions. Game isn't TOO heavily based on the economy, but you can take advantage of it pretty easily.
