    Default To whoever you are, you blessed person, you...

    Thank you for putting up a req. 13 vanilla +6 wisdom hat for the reasonable buyout price of 200,000 gp on the AH.

    It's been infuriating looking for such an item in any slot and having the prices range from an 800K starting bid (exploitative) to 1.5 million starting and 3 million buyout (outrageous!! Do you really expect to sell anything at that price?!).

    Thank you thank you thank you for bringing our server back to reality on +wis items. I hope you enjoy your profits!

    To the rest of you yahoos who think you'll be pulling in 3 million gp for your +6 wis item, I hope you drain your plat on posting costs until you come down to a more reasonable price point.

    I was prepared to go as high as 500,000 gp (mostly out of desperation), but would've felt completely taken advantage of.

    Assuming I already have one on a mule, if I loot plain stat items I normally put them up for approx vendor price. I can't believe people try and gouge as much as 20kpp to be honest... but hey obviously people pay that amount. But then I hate stuff not selling, I would prefer stuff to sell at a low price than for me to get it back in the mail 3 days later where I have to deal with it again.

    If you're a new player, post what you need. There are many friendly people on this server who would even send you the item for free if they have it.

    I have actually been putting TONS of loot on the AH. In fact I stop there on my way to the tavern to sell whatever trash is left over.

    With so many new players and the lack of loot I would hate for them to think a +2 STR items is worth 20k.

    If it is not a trash item I toss it up for 1/2 base value and top buyout of 2x base value, usually just base value. I have been amazed at how well much of this sells. Ya I am not gouging prices but I make a heck of a lot more then selling it at the brokers.

    Plus you are inadvertently gearing those same new players that are going to be in your groups. Would you rather have them with decent gear or still clutching to their starter gear. It's win/win!

    Last but certainly not least I hope it is also destroying the market to bend over new players for no reason. Seriously, what do you end up spending your cash on post 10th level but pots and scrolls anyway.

    Valdire (lvl12 pali) on Khyber needs a bloodstone if anyone has one they dont need.
    Drop a PM if reasonably priced or free. AH prices are ridiculous.

    Default Sarlona AH

    I like where this thread is going. Although I don't have end game gear on the AH because I'm a newish player. I do put my collectibles up there. And I do so at a much cheaper price than what is generally listed. Reason? I'm hoping for a quick buyout so I can turn that money into better lowbie gear. So those of u that are selling lower level gear for low level prices, kudos to you!

    I find just getting something one tier of ML higher a little later is doable......like +6 Ogre Power Gloves ML 13 are so expensive and hard to pull too, but as soon as you hit 15 getting +6 Ogre Power Gloves of Disable are in end reward lists frequently and cheaper on the AH.

    Pretty much anytime u want an item at the level it first becomes available your going to pay a lot.....I usually save all of mine, until my alts are finished.

    My general policy is post at base, buyout at 2x base.

    Jesus, how am I missing that stuff on vendors. I never see stuff other players have sold. What am I missing?

    Click on the Buy Tab. The screen defaults to the Sell tab.

    Check your brokers a couple times a day. If you practice buyback/sell to brokers it gets pretty easy. I've found that the Inspired Quarter, Reavers Refuge and Shavarath brokers often have some sick deals. You just need to look carefully at the items for sale.

    Also remember to try and harness your “loot the broker chest” abilities for good. See something you can’t use but suspect someone else can?
    /g Hey guys this is in the <insert broker type> in <insert location>: <Ctrl + Left Click on item in broker>
    Things worthy of Standing Stone going EXTREME PREJUDICE™ on.:
    • Epic and Legendary Mysterious ring upgrades, please.
    • Change the stack size of filigree in the shared bank to 50. The 5 stack makes the shared bank worthless for storing filigree in a human usable manner.
    • Fixing why I don't connect to the chat server for 5 minutes when I log into a game world.
    • Fixing the wonky Lightning Sphere and Tactical Det firing by converting them to use alchemist spell arcing.
    • Redoing the drop rates of tomes in generic and raid loot tables.

    I got an amazing pick from the Reaver's Refuge broker today.....+1 Flametouched Anarchic Burst light pick of greater evil outsider bane.....not a raid boss beater but great for trash mobs.

    Thumbs up

    Since the launch of DDO: EU I've given tons of stuff away. I had even handed out a few +2 tomes, Ring of Feathers (about 5), weapons, armor, plat and gear to clerics (because they could be healing my a$$ some day ).

    Hell, Earlier this month I handed out roughly 25,000 assorted arrows and bolts from collectors. Filled up 2 mailboxes by doing so and still had tons to hand out. I was never gonna use them. Too much of a pain to run back and forth to sell them.

    Ive been putting everything up for 100 plat starting no buy out. And i mean everything.

    Heres my thought process, if i put something decent on the ah thats worth more than 100 plat, with a buy out, usually someone buys it and relists it. If i dont put a buy out, usually the people that really want it to use, but dont have buku plat to buy another with a 100k buyout, stick around to bit on it when its close to ending. Only 1 or 2 things havent sold this way.

    Ive sold lots of cool weapons for really cheap, nothing game breaking, but a number of vorp khopeshes, rapiers of disruptions etc.

    Looking for a kama +1 is fine with an extra damage die. The ones I have seen in AH are orbital priced. Willing to pay, just can't pay THAT much.

    Edit: The damage type of the extra damage die isn't important.
