gringotts bank
This is the place where you can earn and spend your money. When you spend money, it'll be taken out of your profile. If you want or need to, you can combine your accounts when you want to buy an item. For example: use 50 Sickles from your one account and 100 Sickles from your other account.
MONEY - As you can see in your profile, we're using Sickles. This is to keep it more realistic. If you would convert Galleons to dollars it would be something like this: one Galleon is about five dollars. This is why we're using Sickles.
17 Sickles = 1 Galleon.
buying items
Inside this board (Gringotts) there are many threads in which you can buy all sorts of items for in your Inventory. For example, if you want to buy a wand: go to the Wand Purchases thread and fill in the form. One of the Staff members will then take the right amount of Sickles from your profile and place the bought item in your Inventory.
free items
When you set up your Inventory, you'll see that you get a few items for free. Another way to get items for free is to actually roleplay buying them. For example, if you want to get a wand for free: go to the Diagon Alley, Ollivander's, and start a thread there of your character buying a wand. When the thread's done, simple reply to the Wand Purchases thread with a link to your character buying the wand. One of the Staff members will place the bought item in your Inventory without taking Sickles.
