Slave trade was when people would buy slaves and have them work on their lands.
sold the slaves for gold. gold? what year are you referring to? the owner of the slave would force them to work for nothin they would not pay them and give them minimal food or drink, saving them selves money, e.g if they were a farmer they would force the slave to farm then the owner would sell the crop and keep all profit for himself, often they would sell the slave to some one richer and buy a cheaper one, slaves meant nothin to the owner they were just an object.
it costs a lot of money because slave owners had to pay for accommodations so that the slave was intact conditions and that they were going up for a lot of money. also they had to pay for equipment so that slaves can work on a field or plantation. if a slave died they had to buy a new slave which would cost a lot of money which wasn't worth it
Slaves would have nothing and would work for a long time.
It rose the question of whether each new state entered would be a slave state or a non-slave state. They needed to keep the slave states equal to non-slave states.
People that would buy a slave would buy them because they needed work to be done. They were called, "slave owners". Slavery is now illegal. The Civil War fought against slavery.
slave trade was when the masters that owned the slaves would sale them and other masters would buy them.
The slave could work and get payed and buy there self out. The slave could work normally and live. The slave could escape to Canada and live.
They would buy new ones

They bought them at slave markets and also bread them; children of slaves were regarded as slaves.
Slaves were SOLD by bids. If someone saw a slave they liked they would bid for it and the highest bidder would win. Think of EBAY only your right in front of the 'item' or in this case slave you would wish to buy. And they were sometimes very costly.
Ships from Europe would buy slaves from other slave owners in Africa (YES there were slave owners in Africa!) and then transport them into docks in southern states bordering the Atlantic. There owners from the States could buy or trade them.
The answer to this question would be best said: It really depended on the slave owner. Often the slave owner would want the money he spend -- plus a little more. Often this took many years for a slave to save since they didn't get paid. Often the money they got was from extra work.. they did after their normal work was done. With that said: Often slave owners didn't see or feel the need to let a slave buy his or her own freedom and would not let him or her buy their freedom for any amount of money.
Buy them and use them in the household, farms or mines.
they were looked at buy the buyer and actioner and then the bidding started, if the buyer liked the slave they would bid upto £200 and some would go for a less as 10p.
A loyal slave was the best to have. Remember that the slaves in ancient Rome were used for what was needed. If a person were a farmer, a slave who could do farm work was the best to have; he certainly would not go out and buy a slave who was an accountant to do farm work. If a person had a lot of writing and correspondence, such as Cicero, he would have a secretary like Tyro who was the best to have. In general, any slave who fit his master's needs was the best to have.A loyal slave was the best to have. Remember that the slaves in ancient Rome were used for what was needed.
