Seems a fair price to me. If I ever need a blank, I'd rather buy it than have to farm those annoying Vale quests when I'm not on a TR looking for experience.

Blanks have been sold for 1 lds for a long time. Way before ddoeu. LDS have hovered from 350-500k for a long time. Way before ddoeu.

People still use the trade channel above Korthos? I'll admit, the only time I see it is the few moments in Korthos after I TR and start redoing my settings.
I am guess anyone childish enough to grief you when you are asking a very reasonable price for an item (and I agree it is no where near unreasonable), is probably a child. Imagine telling a 10-year old you paid $25k for your car. He'd be like, "WoW! you got burned!", regardless of what it was worth.
You might advertise in some of the other, non-advertised chat channels. Sarlona has several of these (just ask your customers, if you don't know them). Most (but not all) of the people in these channels would probably welcome doing business with you. Don't go overboard advertising, though, as that would probably not be received well.
Great idea about the "So and so is selling X for 100k plat". LOL
/squelch will at least allow you to not have to hear anything more from that character.
OP - Mind if I send you a PM on here for an order?

500k plat is too much for a GS blank and people shouldn't pay that.
I paid 1 million for my blanks and as far as I know that is the standard price. This is for Argo so I guess you guys have some deflation going on there.

People just want to rag on you in hopes of getting something for cheap. I've always sold blanks for 1 scale and 1 stone, which is about 500k pp by current rates.
That's of course for useful blanks, not for the **** blanks that people make on mistake and then want to offload. 100k for a great crossbow, and not a copper more is what you'll get from me

Some people feel the need to ****er over a price and it matters not where it starts but just that they pay less then you asked for it in the beginning.
Some people think they are being helpful and providing you with info because they believe they have their finger on the pulse of the market and wouldn't want you to waste your time.
Some people are trying to discourage you so that you don't underprice them and they hope their comments will get you out of the sales game.
Some people are the Plat police and feel that everyone should sell things for what they believe the value is, you often see some of these people complaining about the prices on the AH.
Telling them on the forums to stop it isn't going to do a thing, just ignore them and move on or you can use some of the more creative responses others have provided.
I personally don't see an issue with the price you are asking. Nobody is forced to buy it at that price and nobody should force you to sell it at their price (well unless you are dying to make the sale no matter what but that is a differnt story).
What trade channel area do you advertise in?
Are they made to order or do you advertise already made and waiting to move items?
Shapshap, League of Extraordinary Ham, Sarlona and a bunch of alts that all have names begining with Sha or Sho. Of course Shapshap could be the alt and one of the others the main, it just depends on what day it is.
One of the great things about TR'ing is you will most likely do the vale quests atleast 10x's each depending on how you leveling. I think on my TR toon I'm close to 60 signet stones with another 30 or so being able to be made if I combine the stones.
He's doing everyone a service who doesn't wish to farm. His prices have always been fair.
your lucky over on khyber i charge 550k for items 600k for weapons and 650k for khopeshs

X is obviously too much for a GS blank, I don't even have a X, must be hard to find stuff.
