Luny's Rolling Shopping List (mouseover for summary!) Last addition Mar. 12, 2012

Bump #199

My old history log has gotten pretty long. So, as of Jan. 23, 2012, I will keep a log of any new trades here on this post instead of adding more length to that old post's edit history.

This is a reply to a Buy thread listing things I've already bought and no longer need.
(If you found this particular post from a search of only Buy section threads because you're looking for a buyer then you need not waste your time reading this. The data left here is to help people searching threads to determine price checks in the future.)

Bought Things

Non-Green Weapons/ItemsJan. 23, 2012 - Someone sent Fey my way to see if I wanted an r12 Domination Ghostly Staff with inherent 20HCT Curses before merching it. That's certainly weird enough to deserve a home, so we traded it for a lockpick! Thanks again! Jan. 24, 2012 - Someone whispered me offering an r10 Domination Cockatrice Staff with 20HCT Inspiration. I was thinking 5kish; they told me they were thinking 15kish, so we split the difference and I bought this staff for 10k. Jan. 25, 2012 - Rice gave me an r9 DF Holy Branch with inherent 20HCT Smiting - Thanks again! Jan. 26, 2012 - AtheenaMinerva offered me an r9 metal skin Jeweled Staff with 20HCT Inspiration and a spare 20% Smiting staff wrap for 5k total (which I accepted!) Thanks again! Jan. 27, 2012 - Cinderella, the Fairy King, gave me an r9 Tall Shield with 9vTrolls and -5/19 dual mods as my placeholder for a tactics troll shield. Actually, those are pretty good mods for a placeholder tactics troll shield! Thanks again Cinderella! Jan. 27, 2012 - End gave me an r9 core/wand skin "Water Staff" with 20HCT Earth inherent for my growing mixed 20/20 collection - Thanks again End! Jan. 28, 2012 - The anonymous ghostly bit man showed up again with not-bits! With a bit of very much needed and appreciated PC help from a trusted friend, the ghostly bit man agreed to my offer of 70k total for all of the following: r9 canthan/metal skin "Water Staff" with 20HCT Fire inherent, r11 DF Eternal Flame Wand with 10HSR and 19HCT inherent mods, and r11 diamond-skin Accursed Icon with 20HSR Curses and +29hp inherent mods. Thanks again, mysteriously ghostly one! Jan. 30, 2012 - The anonymous ghostly bit man struck again, this time with an irresistible r10 Blood Magic Cockatrice Staff with inherent 20HCT Curses. This ghostly fellow trusts my best guesses on "fair market value" PC for such things more than his own; given my sense of the supply to demand ratios for Cockatrice Staffs and mixed mod staffs, I guessed this staff would be reasonably PC'ed at "5-10k tops and likely hard to find a buyer" (not counting me, whose wishlist here he tells me is the only reason he isn't insta-merching such things.) He then sold it to me for an undisclosed number of Red Iris Flowers. Thanks again! Jan. 30, 2012 - Jan Breydel got in touch when he had one of those too-weird-to-merch-but-next-to-impossible-to-sell items, an r9 chalice skin Divine Symbol with 10vDwarves and 20HCT Divine Favor dual mods. I showed him my other Divine Symbols with critter mods so that he would have no further misconceptions that no one wants such things. I offered him 10k, the price I remember paying for those others recently, which he accepted. Thanks again! Feb. 1, 2012 - obastable's best minion saved an r11 loop skin Divine Symbol with 10% +1 Smiting and 10 vs. plants for my collection. I traded it for an interesting shield with 10v Ogres and +1 Air Magic along with a bran muffin. Thanks again to obastable and #1 minion! Feb. 5, 2012 - Rice kindly sold me his gold-text 16/8 Command Scarabshell Aegis for 80e (~600-640k value right now.) If I understood him correctly, he would not have sold it that low to someone he did not know and trust was buying it to collect. Thanks again Rice! I promise to give you first dibs on buying it back if I ever find a blue one to replace this with! Feb. 11, 2012 - The anonymous ghostly bit man saved an r10 Canthan-metal skin Water Staff with 20HSR Air inherent for me. He accepted my 10k offer price rather than merching it. Thanks again! Feb. 14, 2012 - Van Couver gave me an r11 Smiting Ghostly Staff with 20HCT Blood inherent in exchange for some bran muffins. Thanks again Van! Feb. 15, 2012 - I ran into Warrior Bradols advertising to sell an r13 Eternal Blade. He sold it to me for 55e (~440k,) saying I got a 5e discount from his 60e asking price as he knew me already. Thanks again!For the record, I had to get this Eternal Blade after seeing Van Couver run around Urgoz with his. Van is another BAD INFLUENCE! Feb. 16, 2012 - Van snuck up and stole one of my precious storage spaces with an r12 Death Dragon Staff with 20HCT Air in exchange for an undisclosed amount of bran muffins. Thanks again Van! Feb. 16, 2012 - The anonymous ghostly bit man saved an r12 Death Bone Staff with 20HCT Curses for me, which upgraded my 19HCT Curses version! Thanks again! Feb. 17, 2012 - End found a max damage, blue text inscribable r10 "Tribal Blade" in DoA and saved it for me. Thanks again! Feb. 18, 2012 - LoveToBe and I finally caught up, and I bought the offered r9 Inscribed Staff with 20HCT Inspiration for the 5k I insisted on paying when LoveToBe had offered it for free. Thanks again! Feb. 19, 2012 - I bought an r10 Aegis with 19% Protection +1 and 10vUndead for the 15k early buyout offer I made via PM to a user here. Feb. 19, 2012 - I PMed ele kid after seeing a PC thread of his, and he sold me his r9 Air Wand with 19/19 Water inherent mods for my 10k offer. Thanks again! Feb. 19, 2012 - Thanks to his post here, i am the ownage sold me an r10 lightning spire Air Staff with 20HCT Earth for 15k and an r12 Storm Artifact with 9HSR/19HCT Air inherents for 5k. Thanks again! Feb. 21, 2012 - Cinderella, the Fairy King, gave me the r11 Canthan/candlestick Fire Staff with 20HCT Air that he recently found. (He's also responsible for probably at least half of my 10% slaying mods, too!) Thanks again! Feb. 21, 2012 - I won an r9 Death Platinum Staff with inherent 20HCT Healing for the 5k bid I placed on it which went uncontested for a few days. Feb. 26, 2012 - i am the ownage got in touch to offer an r10 lightning spire Air Staff with 20hct Fire for 5k which I accepted to upgrade my version with only 19hct fire. Thanks again! Feb. 29, 2012 - Lynette Le Sange offered me a chance to save an r10 Fire Cockatrice Staff with 20HCT Air from the merchant. That makes four different Air/Fire mixed staffs I have now. Thanks again! Mar. 2, 2012 - superraptors offered me a core/wand skin r9 Fire Staff with 20HCT Air for 9k. I had to ask him to dye test it for me before I knew if I wanted a fifth air/fire mix staff. His was the dye effect I was missing, so I bought it. Thanks again! Mar. 3, 2012 - Raven Wing offered an r10 Death Raven Staff with 20HCT Restoration for 10k, which I accepted. Thanks again! Mar. 5, 2012 - AtheenaMinerva accepted my 10k offer for a batch of a couple spare +1 staff wrappings and a fire dmg. r9 Conjuring Staff with 20HCT Communing - Thanks again! Mar. 12, 2012 - I bought a pair of inscribable, max, gold r9 "Kamas" for 10k on GWA (another trading fansite with an ebay-style auction system.)For the sake of PC, some notes ... I added these to my wishlist here on Jan. 19, not quite two months ago, after noticing that it actually seems pretty rare to find insc. "Kamas" for sale and I didn't yet have a pair in my weird collections of "every skin I like even a little bit." Van hooked me up with an r12 pair as a place holder (instead of merching them) pretty soon after I added them here, but I kept on the lookout for lower req. ones. On Mar. 7, this pair was listed on GWA (where listings and bids are binding) for a 9-day long auction with 1k reserve and no set buyout. I put a 10k offer up right away and contacted the seller about the possibility of an early buyout. He said he would consider it but wanted to give them a few days first at least. Five days later, on the 12th, I was still the only bidder, so he closed it a few days early for my 10k bid. I can't say for sure, but I have the feeling I probably could have won these for the 1k reserve if I waited the 9 days for the listing to run its course. Inscribable Kamas do seem pretty rare to find for sale, but players seeking to buy them seem at least as rare, if not moreso. Given my recent experience, I would not PC these daggers as reasonably more than 5-10kish, if that much, and probably hard to find interested buyers at all. Rarity without demand doesn't, imo, justify high PC for cases where an owner is looking to actively sell, so I'd be hesitant to advise anyone that they're likely to sell such daggers for more. Mar. 13, 2012 - From a thread here I won an r10 Storm Artifact with +10 vs Ogres & HSR 10% for my 5k bid. Mar. 18, 2012 - i am the ownage and i dealer i conspired to steal one of my storage spaces with a shiny new r10 Tactics Echovald Shield with 20% +1 Curses and 10 vs. Dragons! Aris (dealer) won that shield from ownage's thread with a high bid of 12e (~96k) and then gave it to me for safe keeping. Thanks again to you both!
Green Weapons/ItemsMar. 10, 2012 - on GWA (another fansite) I bought a Brohn's Holy Rod for the 6k buyout price it was listed for.
Various Mods, Collector Bits & Other OdditiesJan. 24, 2012 - cosyfiep hooked me up with the last Communing Wrap I need (for now) and three encrypted charr battle plans for my offer of 3.5k total and tons of the various bits I need for my 200g per bit offer. Thanks again Boss2! Jan. 25, 2012 - an anonymous pink q-tip holder sold me 10% sword pommels of deathbane and tenguslaying for my new 10% slaying mod collection - Thanks again! Jan. 26, 2012 - The anonymous ghostly bit man has been hunting in Cantha recently, and he sold me a few trophy bits today. Thanks again! Jan. 27, 2012 - Some of The Sapphire Rose [TSR] crew has been hunting humps for me! They were kind enough to not put up much fight earlier when I insisted on paying for new humps instead of taking them for free. Only right to pay for one's humps, no? Thanks again to Des and Wheels! Jan. 28, 2012 - In the wee small hours of the morning, cosyfiep sold me a whole bunch of various collector bits, including enough Azure Crests and Encrusted Lodestones for me to be able to take those off the list. Thanks again Boss2! Jan. 28, 2012 - Locien0 traded me five Celestial Essences after I, with regret, turned down his offer of a very nice staff due to having one just like it already and not currently having a use nor space for a second. Thanks again for the bit trade! Jan. 31, 2012 - the "other loon" at GWA sold me many bits of various flavors. Thanks again! Feb. 1, 2012 - L. A. S. found a 10% Staff Wrapping of Deathbane for my collection - Thanks again! Feb. 2, 2012 - cosyfiep hooked me up with enough Jade Mandibles that I can now cross those off the list. Thanks again Boss2! Feb. 3, 2012 - Meow Ren set me up with the staff wrappings of mastery and illusion magic from the post a couple days ago. Thanks again! Feb. 3, 2012 - Šiljo got in touch and sold me the 20% staff wrapping of domination I needed - Thanks again! Feb. 10, 2012 - Khorrax broke into his personal bit stash to sell me the last Frosted Griffon Wings and Moon Shells I needed for my reserves, allowing me to take those off the list. Thanks again! Feb. 17, 2012 - among the many other things he's contributed to my various collections which I've been shamefully remiss about listing, Cinderella, the Fairy King, gave me a 10% staff wrapping of ogreslaying earlier. Thank you, king of the fairies! Feb. 19, 2012 - Olle got in touch in game and offered me a fresh encrypted charr battle plan. He accepted my 500g offer (although he did put up a decent fight trying to not take money ... but I won!) Thanks again! Feb. 19, 2012 - not long after, cosyfiep got in touch with three aged plans discovered when cleaning off some mule characters. Again, I bought them for 500g each. Thanks again Boss2! Feb. 21, 2012 - An anonymous ghost flew by and left a 10% Axe Grip of Dragonslaying for my collection. Thanks again ... whoever you are??? Feb. 23, 2012 - cheape arie delivered the 10% Hammer Grip of Deathbane he posted about a few hours before. I offered him some "merchfood" I thought he might like, given what I knew of his own collecting weak spots, instead of money. He took me up on the trade offer. Thanks again! Feb. 23, 2012 - the anonymous ghostly bit man gave me 10% bow grip of ogreslaying and 10% axe grip of demonslaying, even though I went to pretty extreme measures to find a way to pay him for such things. I'm not giving up so easily, but thanks again! Feb. 25, 2012 - The "other loon" at GWA sold me three new hardened humps for 200g ea. Thanks again! Feb. 25, 2012 - Meow Ren sold me a 10% hammer grip of ogreslaying (not trollslaying as was originally thought) which I also needed for my 10% set. Thanks again! Mar. 2, 2012 - Rice gave me a 20% sword pommel of trollslaying. Thanks again! Mar. 4, 2012 - Meow Ren found the 10% Bow Grip of Deathbane for my collection and sold it to me for 1k. Thanks again! Mar. 5, 2012 - My very good friend Vic (that's not his Guru name) decided to play some GW again after years. He farmed 30 hardened humps which he let me buy! Thanks again! Mar. 10, 2012 - Da Kenster gave me many bits from the list. He wouldn't let me pay gold, so I found some really nice, random crap to pay with instead! Thanks again! Mar. 12, 2012 - Mobiwan saved a 10% Axe Grip of Dwarfslaying to sell me for 1k - Thanks again! Mar. 13, 2012 - End saved two Stolen Goods for me to buy - Thanks again! Mar. 16, 2012 - Coffee Man hooked me up with a 10% Bow Grip of Skeletonslaying - Thanks again! Mar. 17, 2012 - Meow Ren found another addition to my 10% slaying mod collection, 10% Axe Grip of Deathbane. It seems Coffee Man is a bad influence, as I was not allowed to pay money for this one. Instead, I offered a new imaginary friend with a 3 second lifespan. Thanks again! Mar. 18, 2012 - Da Kenster let me buy five hardened humps and 107 bog skale fins Thanks again! Mar. 18, 2012 - cesthamster got in touch in game and sold me the channeling wrap I needed and a bunch of adept staff heads. Thanks again!

Mar. 20, 2012 - take_me sold me many bits and threatened to gather up a show of interesting mixed staffs in the near future. Thanks again!
