Events lead to Exploitation
I'm not even sure if this is considered against the ToS, but it's still a fishy transaction to attempt. What do you make of these types of sales?

The name and also the difficulty rank. It's relatively easy to acquire some of the lower-tier Composing books for any new player which reward a good amount of +Int, be it's purpose for playing a mage or just to help increase their Magic Prot. Regardless, i'm sure 99.92% of the player-base can simply acknowledge this is a obvious scam, especially having already acquired a big sum of gold such as 15m and being familiar with the game already. Still, I fear somebody out there is obvious enough to fall for this...and so I pray they're one of the minority whom check the forums and avoid the perpetrator's scam.
Yeah, I always thought the definition of exploitation is to take advantage of a flaw in the design. Since the codes weren't really designed with the purpose of being sold, it's probably considered a scam instead.
Nonetheless, that's a really awful thing to do. Are there a lot of people doing this that you've seen?? Because holy heck...
Pretty sure nope.
To answer your question, likely what you get is a series of numbers/letters you input into the Coupon Redemption option at a Bank in-game. So it's probably not a tradeable item. Hence the concept of people "putting the code" into a song scroll and trying to sell it.
The 7-11 Slurpee Potion Codes for the worked where you put in the code and instantly got your prize, no 'coupon item' needed.
The last time they did something like this, it involved the Neko Robe, and that wasn't tradeable between other players.
Who's to say if that's the case this time?
Wasn't the case that time, though.
