The terminal of the user 120 and the first user 110 and the second terminal of the second user 120 are connected through the communication network 200, and the terminal of the first user 110 and the second user 120 are connected to each other. It is composed of an item service server 300 that provides an item transaction service between the terminals.

Here, the terminal is a device that maintains a connection state with the item service server 300 through a communication network 200 such as the Internet, a telephone line, and implements an online game. For example, by providing a predetermined memory means such as a personal computer (PC), a handheld computer, a personal digital assistant (PDA), a mobile phone, a smartphone, and the like, a predetermined microprocessor can be provided. It is the concept of collectively equipped terminal.

In the present invention, the first user 110 and the second user 120 are described as the main trading party of the game item for convenience, but the third user 130 and the plurality of N-th user 190 may also be parties to the item transaction. Can be

The item service server 300 includes an inventory unit 310, a bargainable list unit 320, a tradeable list unit 330, an item movement recorder 340, and a user list unit 350.

The inventory unit 310 is an item store in which items such as items (for example, costumes, accessories, game weapons, etc.) and money (for example, cyber money, cash, etc.) acquired during the online game are stored. In addition, it stores information about items obtained through the progress of the online game, and plays a role of allowing related technologies or equipment to be utilized in the online game.

The bargain list unit 320 moves and stores an item for preparing an item transaction among items stored in the inventory unit 310.

The tradeable list unit 330 moves and stores items that are presented to the buyer for sale among the items stored in the bargainable list unit 320.

The item movement recorder 340 moves items from the bargainable list unit 320 to the tradeable list unit 330, and moves items from the tradeable list unit 330 to the bargainable list unit 320. Through the unit 330, the items are traded in order.

The user list unit 350 represents a list of users currently connected to the item service server 300.

2 is an exemplary view showing a screen for item trading in an online game according to an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 3 is an exemplary view showing an item transaction request screen in an online game according to an embodiment of the present invention.

In order to trade an item in an online game according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 2, the main screen 400 for trading an item is displayed on the user terminal 110, 120, 130,... 190. Is displayed.

Here, assuming that the first user 110 is an item seller and the second user 120 is an item buyer, the main screen 400 is a bargainable list unit 320 of the first user 110 that is the item seller. A first tradeable list unit 321 and a first tradeable list unit 331 which is a tradeable list unit 330 of the first user 110 are displayed.

In addition, the second bargainable list unit 322 which is the bargainable list unit 320 of the second user 120 who is the item buyer, and the second tradeable list which is the tradeable list unit 330 of the second user 120. Part 332 is displayed.

In addition, the main screen 400 displays an item movement recorder 340 and a user list unit 350 in which a list of users currently connected to the item service server 300 is displayed.

As illustrated in FIG. 2, the main screen 400 includes the first bargainable list unit 321 and the first bargainable list unit 321 of the first user 110 based on a screen viewed by the first user 110, which is an item seller. The tradeable list unit 331 is located at the bottom of the main screen 400, and the second bargainable list unit 322 and the second tradeable list unit 332 of the second user 120 who is the item buyer are the main screen. It is located above.

On the contrary, if the main screen 400 is based on the screen viewed by the second user 120, the second bargainable list unit 322 and the second tradeable list unit 332 of the second user 120 are main. The first bargainable list unit 321 and the first tradeable list unit 331 of the first user 110 may be positioned above the main screen 400.

For item trading, as shown in FIG. 3, the first user 110 who is an item seller selects one of the users listed in the user list unit 350 as an item buyer and applies for item trading.

In the present invention, it is assumed that the first user 110 applies the item transaction by selecting the second user 120 after assuming the second user 120 as the item buyer.

Therefore, the screen shown in FIG. 3 is preferably a screen displayed on the terminal of the second user 120 as a buyer. Of course, other users existing in the user list unit 350 may be selected in addition to the second user 120.

For example, the first user 110 may select the second user 120 or the third user 130 to apply for an item transaction, and the second user 120 may request the third user 130 or the first user. To the user 110, the third user 130 may apply for item trading by selecting the first user 110 or the second user 120, or the like.

In addition, the main screen 400 for item trading may be shared between the item trading parties, so that the item is moved.

Therefore, when the first user 110 and the second user 120 proceeds with the item transaction, the first user 110 is the second bargainable list unit 322 and the second tradeable list of the second user 120. An item in the unit 332 may be viewed, and a process of moving the item between the second bargainable list unit 322 and the second tradeable list unit 332 may be viewed.

Similarly, the second user may also view items in the first bargainable list unit 321 and the first tradeable list unit 331 of the first user 110, and the first bargainable list unit 321. It is also possible to see a process in which items are moved between the first tradeable list unit 331.

4 is a flowchart illustrating a method of trading an online game item according to an embodiment of the present invention.

First, in order to trade an item, the first user 110, which is an item seller, moves at least one item among items stored in the inventory unit 310 of the first user 110 to the first bargainable list unit 321. The item is prepared to be traded while showing that the item can be traded (step S110).

When moving an item, it is preferable to move the item by clicking and dragging the item by using a move icon 600 through a command input tool (not shown). Here, the command input tool may be a computer keyboard, a mouse, a touch screen pad or a pen mouse.

Then, the first user 110 moves the item to be traded among the items stored in the first bargainable list unit 321 to the first tradeable list unit 331 by using the move icon 600 to start an item transaction. (Step S120).

Then, an item that the first user 110 wants to sell is present in the first tradeable list unit 331 (step S130), and the first user 110 selects the request button 510 to be a buyer. 2, the user 120 requests to purchase an item existing in the first transaction list 331 (step S150).

Subsequently, if the second user 120 receives a purchase request, selects the accept button 520 to accept the item purchase request to purchase the item (step S160), and the second user 120 purchases the item. Accordingly, the first user 110 requesting the item purchase selects the confirmation button 530 to confirm the item purchase (step S170).

However, before the item transaction is made, the item moved to the first transaction list 331 may be an item that the second user 120 does not want to purchase (step S130).

Since the main screen 400 is shared, the second user 120 as the item buyer may look at the items held in the first bargainable list unit 321 of the first user 110 as the item seller.

Thus, if there is an item to be purchased among the items held in the first bargainable list unit 321, the second user 120 selects an item to be purchased directly from the first bargainable list unit 321 and selects the first user ( The first user 110 may be moved to the first transaction list 331 of FIG. 110 to sell the item (step S140).

For example, the first user 110 and the second user 120 are the item trading party, and there is an 'herb' item that is an item for sale in the first tradeable list unit 331.

At this time, from the standpoint of the second user 120, the 'medicinal herb' item in the first transaction list 331 of the first user 110 is not an item desired to be purchased, but the first bargainable list unit. At 321, a 'sword' item, which is an item that the second user 120 wants to purchase, is present.

In addition, the second user 120 selects a 'sword' item, which is an item to be purchased, in the first bargaining list 321 of the first user 110 as the moving icon 600 to select the first user 110. The first transaction 110 may move to the first transaction list 331 to request the first user 110 to sell the item.

However, if the second user 120 wants to move an item that the first user 110 does not want to sell from the first bargainable list unit 321 to the first tradeable list unit 331, the first user ( 110 selects an item that the user does not want to sell to the move prohibition icon 700 through the command input tool, thereby preventing the second user 120 from moving the item to be purchased.

That is, when the second user 120 tries to move the 'knife' item that the first user 110 does not want to sell, the first user 110 uses the move prohibition icon 700 to display the 'knife' item. It can be prevented from moving.

Accordingly, the first user 110 moves the item stored in the first bargainable list unit 321 to the first tradeable list unit 331 by the second user 120 and requests the item for sale to the second user. While the second user 120 may sell the item to the 120, the first user 110 may reject the item if the second user 120 does not want to sell the item.

Thus, when the first user 110 rejects a sale request for an item selected by the second user 120, the second user 120 selects another item from the first bargainable list unit 321 to make a sale request. Alternatively, an item desired to be purchased repeatedly may be selected from the first bargainable list unit 321 and requested to be sold to the first user 110.

For example, if the second user 120 wants to sell the 'knife' item, but the first user 110 refuses to sell, the second user 120 selects the 'knife' item again and sells it. Or, instead of the 'knife' item, another item of interest, a 'gold coin' item may be selected and requested to be sold to the first user 110.

In this way, the item buyer selects an item that the item seller wants to purchase in addition to the item presented for sale by the item seller and requests the item seller to sell the item, and the item seller accepts or rejects the request of the item buyer. In order to trade items between buyers, the effect is a bargain in a real deal.

In addition, if there is a specific price of an item, the sale price of the item may be bargained. If there are a plurality of items of the same type, the sale number of the item may also be a bargain.

In this way, when the item that the second user 120 wants to purchase exists in the first tradeable list unit 331 (step S130), the second user 120 selects the request button 510 to select the first user. Request the item sale to 110 (step S150).

Subsequently, the first user 110 who has received the sale request selects the accept button 520 to accept the item selling request and sells the item (step S160), and the first user 110 sells the item. The second user 120 requesting the item sale selects the confirmation button 530 to confirm the item sale (step S170).

In this way, the second user 120 who is an item buyer can purchase a desired item.

Similarly, assuming that the second user 120 is the seller and the first user 110 is the buyer, the second user 120 also lists the items present in the second bargainable list unit 322 in the second tradeable list. By moving to the unit 332, the first user 110 may request an item purchase.

In addition, the first user 110 may select a desired item to purchase from the items existing in the second bargainable list unit 322 of the second user 120 to request a sale to the second user 120. will be.

Meanwhile, while the item transaction between the first user 110 and the second user 120 is in progress, one or more other sellers or buyers among the users displayed on the user list unit 350 may be added to proceed with the multilateral item transaction. have.

For example, as shown in FIG. 2, the first user 110 selects a third user 130 existing in the user list unit 350 during an item transaction with the second user 120 to perform an item transaction. Can be.

Accordingly, when the first user 110 selects the second user 120, the main screen 400 where the item transaction is performed between the first user 110 and the second user 120 is displayed. When the 110 selects the third user 130, the main screen 400 where the item transaction is performed between the first user 110 and the third user is displayed.

Here, even when the multilateral item transaction is in progress, the main screen 400 for the item transaction progress is shared among the item transaction parties.

In addition, the main screen 400, the seller to the bargainable list unit 320 from the inventory unit 310, the bargainable list unit 320 to the tradeable list unit 330 to sell the item while the item is in progress And a lock button 540 that prevents the purchaser and other buyers or other sellers from seeing the process of moving the item from the tradable list unit 330 to the bargainable list unit 320.

The lock button 540 is useful when a multi-party item transaction proceeds and the item movement becomes complicated and insane.

For example, if the first user 110 is a seller, and the second user 120 and the third user 130 are buyers, the first user 110 may use the first bargaining list unit to sell the item. If the lock button 540 is selected before moving the item between 321 and the first tradable list 331, between the first bargainable list 321 and the first tradable list 331. The process of moving the item is not visible to the second user 120 and the third user 130.

In this case, the second user 120 and the third user 130 may be able to know that the first user 110 has selected the lock button 540 through a separate notification signal. Accordingly, the second user 120 and the third user 130 may wait for knowing that the first user 110 is moving the item.

Subsequently, when the movement of the item between the first bargainable list unit 321 and the first tradeable list unit 331 is completed, the first user 110 presses the lock button 540 to request an item purchase. You will choose one more time.

Then, the second user 120 and the third user 130 can see the main screen 400, the first user 110 has moved the item for the purchase request.

In addition, the main screen 400 has a multi-item transaction, and when the seller and the buyer are mixed, there is a cleanup button 550 to display the status of the item to be sold and the item to be purchased for each user.

For example, if the first user 110 is a seller, the second user 120 is a buyer, and the third user 130 is another seller, the first user 110 may send an item to the second user 120. But sell the item from the third user (130).

Meanwhile, the first user 110 may not only sell items to the second user 120, but may also purchase items of the second user 120, and not only purchase items from the third user 130, The item may be sold to the 3 user 130.

In this way, the seller and the buyer are mixed, and the item sales progress and the item purchase progress are mixed, which is very complicated.

In this case, when the first user 110 selects the cleanup button 550, the items to be sold and the items to be purchased for each user are collectively displayed.

That is, the items to be sold to the second user 120 and the items to be purchased from the second user 120 are shown to be easily organized, and the items to be purchased from the third user 130 and sold to the third user 130. Items to be shown are easy to see.

Therefore, it is advantageous to consider one's interests when finalizing a transaction in a multilateral transaction.

In particular, during an item transaction, if there is a transaction for money, it can be calculated numerically so that the sum is displayed, thereby saving time for financial calculation.

5 is an exemplary diagram illustrating payment of a fee for an item transaction on an online game according to an embodiment of the present invention.

In this way, in order to trade items such as selling and purchasing items, a predetermined fee item 800 must be paid. The fee item 800 is purchased and stored in advance, which is a virtual stamp or recognition of a fee concept.

Therefore, in order to sell an item, the first user 110 who is an item seller must pay a predetermined fee item 800 to the first fee unit 361 as shown in FIG. do.

In addition, in order to purchase an item, a second user 120 who is an item purchaser may purchase an item only by paying a predetermined fee item 800 to the second fee unit 362.

6 is an exemplary view showing an item transaction record in an online game according to an embodiment of the present invention.

When an item is moved by an item transaction such as selling or purchasing an item among the users 110, 120, 130,... You can compare the item movement process of or compare a specific past and the current item movement process.

Accordingly, the item is moved from the bargainable list unit 320 to the tradeable list unit 330 or the item is moved from the tradeable list unit 330 to the bargainable list unit 320 and the tradeable list unit 330 is moved. The contents of the items traded through are recorded in the item movement recorder 340 in order.

Accordingly, as shown in FIG. 6, when the item movement recorder 340 selects '07', the moved state of the seventh item is displayed, and when '09' is selected, the moved state of the ninth item is displayed. do.

For example, it is the seventh time that a 'knife' item is moved from the first bargainable list unit 321 to the first tradeable list unit 331, and the 'gold coin' item is the first bargainable list unit 321. If the moving to the first tradeable list unit 331 is the ninth, if the '07' is selected in the item movement recorder 340, the moved state of the 'sword' item is displayed, and if the '09' The moved state of the 'gold coin' item is displayed.

In this case, when '07' and '09' are selected at the same time and the compare button 341 is selected, the movement process of the changed item is displayed by comparing the seventh and ninth, and the '07' is selected and the compare button 341 is selected. Displays the movement of the seventh and current items.

If any one of the orders recorded in the item movement recording unit 340 is selected and the submit button 342 is selected, the item movement recording unit 340 is requested to request an item transaction from the other party.

For example, in the main screen 400 of the first user 110, which is the item seller, the 'cal' item is moved from the first bargainable list unit 321 to the first tradable list unit 331. Second. When the first user 110 selects '08' in the item movement recorder 340, an 'eighth' item, which is the eighth moved item, is displayed on the first tradeable list unit 331, and the submit button If 342 is selected, the item trader is presented to the item buyer with the 'sword' item displayed.

In addition, other users such as the second user 120 and the third user 130 may also know the state in which the item is moved through the respective item movement recording unit 340.

In the above description, the present invention has been described with reference to preferred embodiments, but the present invention is not necessarily limited thereto, and a person having ordinary skill in the art to which the present invention pertains does not depart from the technical spirit of the present invention.
