The best bargain ever was becoming friends with the guys that are now my guildies.
Most of the things we don't need we give to each other (I've given away tons of booze (festive drops and farming a number of survivors at Killy ...), weapons and received tons of stuff in return) - unless it's a bit more on the expensive side (or the guy just REALLY needs money ) - for which there is always a discount in store for us.

Someone wanted a death staff so I offered him a Morgriff's for 2k. He put some crappy gold wooden buckler in the trade window instead of cash. When I told him I didn't need that, he put in a Forest Minotaur mini, which I did take.
I felt kind of bad afterwards and PM'd him to take the mini back and he could keep the staff for free but he wouldn't respond and then logged off.
Oh, picked up another req 9 Saurian scythe for only 12k, crappy mods tho.

Horseman Of War
Toward the end of the farm-your-face-off SF chaos plane farming days (when ectos were 3.5) I decided to buy a torment spear (still dont use it, just sits in inventory) specifically for HoM.
Bought one off guildie for 100k+5e
Same guildie, same day, also GAVE me an unded Ceratadon for my HoM.
Probably the best Ive made out in Trade Wars in 3 years...
Only other great deal I had once (around spring 2007) was a perf r8 tyrian shadowblade I picked up for 75k and sold for 100+x ectos cant remember exact amount.

Bought an r9 Pyroclastic axe for 10k today...
Have my current r8 15^50 Tyrian Chaos Axe that I bought for 35k
$20 for 120 Ectos and Shards from a friend of mine *way* back in the day (when they were 16k ectos and 8-10k shards - we ran UW and FoW together daily and he didn't like Obby armor for his profession, so he sold me all the ectos / shards he got for $20 so I could get 2 sets)
I still say that is the best $20 I have ever spent.

Back in the day.. when only Factions and Proph was available, some guy came up to me, and put up a r7 Tactics 16AL -2/-2 Aegis and a 15 in stance r12 Chaos Axe, and asked 15k from me. Yeah the Chaos wasn't worth much, but I sold that Aegis for 100k+, I don't remember how many ectos.
Man, I wonder how much that shield would fetch these days..

Hey! Why didnt you pm me on the chaos axe! Trade you my purple r8 13^50 crystalline for it?
Hmm.... good deals lately... I sold all my bone dragon staffs that i paid anywhere from 75k to 175e and sold them. Pays to buy early when everyone hated them/ didnt know how hard they were to get. Sold the r9 heal for 300 or 350e after paying 100k+ a few ectos for it. Sold the r10 prot for 800z after paying 175e for it. I probably sold them too cheap... Oh well... didnt claim to be a good trader, just lucky every now and then. Helps to pay for my really bad buys like the beetle and everlasting beetle tonic to go with it (that was another horribly bad buy...but i dont like to think about those)
