I can ALSO confirm that if you don't have anything to sell, as long as theres something in the purchase menu, you can still do this.

I like this game

Hi just tested on m/kb. Yes it does work and one extra detail that's nice: I was unsure if I did it right since it said "confirm purchase?" But I can confirm that that is indeed how it works. I also pushed the limits a bit and I have discovered that it seems it works as long as you're quick enough to actually see the tab change to sell, which means you have a generous amount of time.

This is incredible! THank tyou!

@tynian87116 Thanks for explaining the M/kb. I was able to get a speed run on extreme clocked at around 4 hours thanks to this little method. :)

Just found this out, but, at least for m/kb you need to have 2 items for purchase at least, and you have to highlight one that's not the first, or in the case you have more than 1 of, say, 2 greaves, the item you highlight on the purchase screen should be the third option if available, otherwise you'll just end up selling one of your items. Presumably because the game is selling whatever is in the highlighted slot when it moves to the sell screen, which is probably how the exploit works, the game pre-emptively puts the equipment in the next slot before dealing with the transaction.

Brilliant! For those using mouse & keyboard, the way you pull off the trick is to highlight an item you have trade points for, move your mouse cursor over the sell tab and left click/hit enter simultaneously. That's the only difference, can confirm it works like a charm! Thanks OP!
