While standing in kamadan working on my drunknard title, I did watch trade channel a lot, there are 2 things I couldn't understand:
1. why ppl willing to pay 20e for a stack of golden eggs but not want to pay more than 70k for a stack of candy corn? As I know, they both raise all your attributes by 1 for a certain time, but candy corn do double times, thats the only difference, so candy corn should be worth more than eggs?
2. I have stacks of spiked eggnogs which is hard to sell for over 35k/stack, but a lot of ppl spamming in kamadan "WTB kegs 10k/each". Since 250 spiked eggnogs = 750 drunk points = 5 kegs, and 35k is much cheaper than 5 kegs which will cost you around 50k, beside, 250 spiked eggnogs only take 1 slot in your inventory instead of 5 if you buy kegs. Personally I'll never buy kegs, I only buy stack of lvl5 ales.
Any idea?

Rangers need both candy corns and golden eggs to get their SF high enough to last while under de effect of an essence of celerity, then its just a question of rarity. Golden eggs are allot less common.

Items are never priced based on their use. Candy corn lasts 10 min, and egg only last 5min. Both are +1 attr, yet one is ~7-9e/stack and the other is more than twice that. Its just because of the availability.
We just had Halloween and again had the very easy skele quest that many people abused and allowed many Candy Corn to come into gw market circulation. Golden eggs are from easter almost a year ago, and had were harder to farm (no abused quest, just raptors,etc).
And since its been so far since Easter, they are at their peak price. But if you just wait a month, you can buy for super cheap during the event.

indeed, golden eggs will be worth 35k max/stack soon enough.
And in september, corn will go for 20e/stack

About the keg-spiked eggnog matter:
Often larger quantities result in discount prices.
Ofcourse 35K, which means a discount of 15K on the 50K price of the 5 kegs equivalent of a spiked eggnog stack, is rather large. So I guess one conclusion could be that the average gw player simply sucks at math.
If you want 50K for your stack i suggest you spam that you are selling kegs and just sell the spiked eggnogs per 50 for 10K. This will cost you more time so you'll have to decide for yourself if the extra 15K is worth the effort.
