    Default what to sell with Hagglebard?

    I just rolled up a Haggle Bard and I'm having a grand time with him. He's breezing through low level content and the combinations of crowd control, healing and some melee skill makes him a ton of fun to solo or party.

    My question is how should I use him for his hagglebot function?

    Should I pass my high level items to him so that he can sell them to Brokers?
    Which vendors/brokers offer the best prices for the goods that I'm selling?
    Are there any vendors that offer better prices when I'm BUYING items? (Raise Dead scrolls, Heal scrolls, etc)

    whats worth it depends on your personal style, numerically everything is worth it. for me personal I pass items up 50k base value.

    best places to sell to: house D brokers for arms, House K for armor and marketplace for clothing and jewelery.

    best buy, they are equal, some vendors offer better prices if you got the prestige quest for that area.

    a high haggle skill can give you seriously cheaper prices when buying scrolls or selling junk to the vendors.

    haggle does effect brokers too. so you can sell and buy stuff there.

    Obviously you can net more gold by sending EVERYthing to your Haggle skilled character to sell, but only you can decide where the break even point for the extra time or hassle is. If you have a shared bank option, you can easily pass 20 items a time to your seller.

    The link to the wiki is the one I would have posted, it has all the key info you need.

    Personally, anything under 100K I just sell off, bigger stuff I send to my bard to sell. When I was a little more broke, 50K was the break point for me.

    Yep, same here. Weapons over 100K, armors over 50K, items I don't usually bother with.

    How much stuff is in your backpack that you want to sell, how much space is available in your shared bank, and how many times do you want to log and relog between your haggle bard and the character that has the junk you want to sell.
    Disappointed and without trust in the powers that be.

    If you don't have the Shared Bank, get it ASAP. Having to mail stuff back and forth cuts into your profit (channelling my inner Ferengi there).

    Personally, I have my Hagglebot sell pretty much everything with a 'list price' of 10k or more. When your luck at getting the good loot is as bad as mine is and the AH is the only alternative, you're darn right I'm greedy.

    As a proud owner of a self buffed 83 hagglebard, 88 if monk and bard song. I personally sell EVERYTHING with him. I do make exceptions for trash pots, scrolls, wands, and components.

    But pretty much everything else goes to him to fence the merchandise. With 30 slots in a shared bank after a day of loot running or raiding it is nothing to quickly gain a couple hundred thousand plat.

    Plus your friends will love you for it when it is time to buy supplies for raid and questing.

    Considering how fast a mailbox fills if you have many high level alts, and even just a few, it is not worth it to send any weapons or armors below min level 8. You can fit about 60 items into a mail box. With just a 72 haggle, my bard can pull in anywhere from 30k-80k depending on the min level mix, in one full back pack of weapons, that's a total of 20 weapons in one shot. Armor of course is always of a lesser value, but still worth it IMO to send those that are worth 25k (min lvl 8) or more.

    I almost never pick up any gear type items that are junk, Ie. +2 str of improved false life ring, even if it is worth 36k they sell for so little, I just leave them.

    My Haggle bard is only level 4 (vet status). Around 32 haggle, which isn't bad for just creating a character.

    I fill up my shared bank with weapons over 100k list. Log in my bard and empty the bank. After about 3 bank fulls, the bard is full and I'm forced to sell so I run to house D and sell.

    Sure, I could make more by leveling the bard, sending it everything, etc. I'm much more lazy than I am greedy however.
