    Default For lack of a logical reason......

    ......because ppl buy them.

    You need tools? You on Thelanis? Post your character name, or send tell to Mothergoose, I usually have a few extra stacks lying about.

    10k?

    ****, I sell them for 600 on the AH (on Sarlona). I figure some low level player can make good use of them.

    To be honest I never thought to look for thieves tools on the AH. I find so many now that I just vendor most of them them. My 3 rogue splash toons always seem to find enough to replace what they use and still have plenty left over.

    Maybe I will start putting the surplus on the AH cheap to try and help others.

    I list all surpluses (which are tons) on the Ah for 930 start 990pp buyout. always list for 8 hours and usually they are all sold before i complete the next quest. Not sure if people inflating the prices are buying all the cheap ones or what...but been doing my part to keep +5 tools reasonable and stocked on AH

    It's interesting, the trends of the AH. Weren't we just remarking the other night about how crazy certain items/ingredients were priced.

    I see those tools listed at crazy prices, but I can't believe anyone is *really* buying them. The ones <1000 seem to go, and the ones <500 *I* nab if I'm there in time. ...but 10K?!? No way.... Really?


    About a month ago: Whoever AH'd a whole carpfish load of +5 stacks at 150 buyout, my almost full bank tab of backstocked Tools thanks you.

    Cant lower the price like that,start with 7k buyout,that way those selling for 10k wont profit by buying your cheaper ones and reselling them.

    If they were for 149 buyout it was probably me.

    And here whenever I pull a set I was just opening the who panel and mailing them to some level 1 unguilded rogue or artificer. I'm missing out on some potential plat apparently.

    You can't imagine how many tools you need for running impossible demands . I've bought all the cheap ones off AH whenever I could and used almost all of em.

    Why buy from AH? The thieves' tools +4 are dead cheap from the Free Agents' vendor. I don't believe +4 tools will make any significant difference (as compared to +5 ones) in the chance of disarming traps.

    On the rare occasion I look on the AH for them on Thelanis can generally find them for an 800-1k buyout.

    (and I'll do that over running to the harbor or swapping toons to dig a set out of the bank as a matter of sheer laziness)

    Ouch

    I've been stocked up enough for a few weeks but I do tend to run out of +5's, especially if I am TRing.

    I usually pay up to 1k for them, which is steep really but usually either an after thought when I am standing at the AH and notice I am low or when I have an oh *** moment in the middle of a quest/ chain

    Because some people are greedy, and some are stupid enough to pay high prices.

    Give us your char names and server, and I'll bet you will get some mailed to you.
