To gamble almost indefinitely, only buy the rings and ammys for possible
keeping, and then, for money, buy the lowest priced: wand (3910), scepter
(5050), and short staff (3910?). If you are over level 25 these items
show up with nice enough mods to make them worth much more than you paid
for them often enough to keep your money rising instead of falling. Then,
if you have *too* much money, you can try for the expensive armors to
'dump' some gold. Heh, it doesn't take too many times of buying a wand at
3910 gold and selling it for over 100,000 to end up with more gold than
you can carry. Even when it is worth less than what you pay, you are not
losing very much each time (certainly less than most ring or amulet sell
backs). Now imagine my problems of trying to get rid of my excess gold
when I am at level 92, even the armors make me money sometimes.
