Introduction
Firstly you sell items by talking to a merchant and then opening your inventory. You can then right click items to sell them. There are merchants all over the place in this game. They sell at different prices. It's possible to buy goods cheap and sell them expensive. Here's a pic of the merchant if front of our apartment for example.

Buying Low And Selling High
Some merchants sell items for low prices. Some sell for medium prices. And some sell for high prices. In the same zone as your apartment, there's an area called Little China. He sells Jackets for 400. On an island in between Little China and Upper Midtown, just a bit to the North West, there's a shop owner who buys them for 480. Here's some screenies.


and

A Merchant With A Bigger Ticket Item
There's a merchant buy the ramen merchant that gives the quest for the elevator Gorgotha that sells cybernetic arms for 4900. On the same island, in front of lifecorp HQ and down a couple levels is a wandering merchant that buys them for 5880. Unfortunately the cybernetic arms run out after buying too many. Here's some screenies.


and

Food Merchants
Some merchants sell food. A lot of food gets automatically consumed immediately so you can't sell it. Also food merchants tend to not buy things. They're not good for trading.

I haven't visited all of the different merchants. The one in the screenie above is the lowest I've seen but I haven't visited all the merchants.

money is barely needed honestly. you need to refuel,upgrade your ship, repair damages and buy stuff for your apartment. I upgraded and bought everything needed and I finished the game with almost 10k in the bank without doing these trading gimmics. sweet game and i really hope they keep adding to it

At a couple parts of the story Rania is supposed to buy food. Well one time it's coffee. Otherwise, I don't know if it does anything.
