I've never got the concept of street and trade price. What do they mean? Like for street price how does it work if its different from trade price?

When they talk about trade price, they're basically talking about the price in-game, or GE.

When they talk about street price, they're talking about how much the item is worth trading from player to player.
 
Street prices are usually achieved by adding junk (typically an item with 0 street value) into the trades or by trading items with equivalent street prices.

Example:

Item A is worth 100m on GE but 230m street.
Item B is worth 10m but 50m street.

You'd have to pay 230m for Item A + extra junk provided by seller.
You'd have to pay 50m total for item B + extra junk provided by seller.


You could also pay with enough total "extra" street values instead of pure cash. Exemplified:

You give some of item B to add "street value" to your side of the trade. Then you use the item B + some cash to balance the market value. You buy item A + some junk to balance the street value.
 
Okay thank you so much for explaining this. What are some examples of junk used?
 
Things that have a high value that doesn't sell in ge and no one wants. :P
 
Poisoned arrows are one of them.

I have around 60k of these sittin in my bank atm -.-
 
Those tribal masks (10), maple longbow (u), and addy/rune (p++) arrows are some common ones.

maple longs sell for max now

Maple long (U)'s aren't really considered junk nowadays. They sell in the G.E for medium price-level almost instantly for myself.
