bazaar - prices for PoP components

[Bartox]

i had a BIG laugh yesterday when i saw a few "raw materials" for sale in the bazaar for what can only be described as simply ridiculous prices.

for example.

living coal 10k, 20k
alkaline etched stones 10k

and then you wonder why tradeskillers charge for so much for the final item produced? good luck on sellings them.

I've noticed the exact same thing. At those prices, there's NO WAY I'll be making any of the nice new things

[Maevenniia]

Oh god, that's ridiculous

[Wyrdlan]

You wouldn't pay 5 or 10k for nightmare mephit blood? 20k for a drop of pure rain?

I'm shocked!

[Bartox]

I can understand taking into consideration for drop rarity.. but come on folks, some of that stuff *IS* a common drop off mobs you can almost solo (depending on class).

I plan to flood the market with my stockpile and ruin all your evil cartel schemes of bazaar domination!

[Ilona]

Flood the market starting with me!!
Guess I need to level up more to "convince" my friends to hunt places I need components from. It works at level 30-40, why don't I think it will work at 55-60?? :roll:

[matteo]

heh

I thought it was funny hearing that Spell:Imbue Fire was for sale for 100kpp in the bazaar the other night.

[Bartox]

i have found elemental tradeskill stuff on NPC vendors this past week. was a pleasant surprise.

[lonewylfe]

It's always nice to find things on vendors that I can use

Though now that I've printed out the list of ingr for high end bows, I see I missed a few things while vendor mining

Then again, there are people who pay outrageous prices for things b/c they want to be the first with them/can't wait to farm or get them later. *shrug*

[Kaeyla]

Learning to solo tier1 stuff has drastically reduced the DoT on my bank account ;o

Hmm

I think price gougers are the same people who complain if you tell them how much you are charging for something.

"! dued taht is 2 much !!1! lol i got tailroin up too 77, an its not that hard!"

Little do they know how much work goes into 250 tailoring or smithing now. (there are those that "got in under the nerf" on smithing, but no one, I mean no one had much of an easy road on tailoring)

They have no idea how much we fail at 250 with GM devices standing in our lucky spot with KEI and shaman buffs on , hoping like hell that the RNG is in a good mood today.

I don't mind the people farming velium at 20-50p a brick.
I don't mind the people farming Superb/Flawless hides for 100-200p each.

That's ok, but 10k? 20k? even 2k is ridiculous for some of the ingredients that you must use in place of WATER for the smithing of studs, for example.

I made 2 pieces of PoP tailored stuff when I got 250 because I wanted to. Due to the prices of some of the components involved, I am selling them at near cost. at 20k. /rude price gougers

person trying to sell war wraith blood for 5k each (has 10)

*giggle like a school girl*

In the last few days I've picked up 7 storm ent saps and 4 sandstone pearls. Not knowing how much they are worth, I've checked the going rate in the bazaar and then tried to undercut it significantly.

Anyone have a MSRP to offer on these items?

[GunnyBurlfoot]

Well...

Sandstorm Pearls vary, but I have seen them for around 200-300p usually.

Storm Ent Sap goes for around 150p or so.

That's only IMO, though

[Ilona]

Personally, I have loads of sandstorm pearls without drops of pure rain to go with them (and still need two more items for my cleric), and at least half a stack of storm ent sap but only one lonely little storm volass hair to pair up with them
