i collect these shields - i have over 30
in my experience, yours is worth no more than 20-30k

However, I have paid up to 20-30e for eternal/echovald shields with these exact mods.

I'll chime in to also agree with Purely and jimbo's guesses on the order of it being unlikely to fetch more than 20kish.

While I doubt I'm as experienced a collector as Purely there, I'm certainly a "long-time minor enthusiast" and have watched/participated in my share of auctions for such things.

In the interest of helping to leave PC data for folks doing future searches, I recently left the following hidden away in a post of mine somewhere.

EDIT - Nov 12 - <snip unrelated info>

PC Info (which can be such a pain to research for these things

Right after seeing my first edit to retract my bid, H4V0C contacted me in game, and we talked about the shield. With his permission, I'm leaving the following here in the hopes it helps the next person trying to PC something "weird, but cool" like this caster shield:
- From my own experience seeing such +1 caster att dual mod shields PC'd and bid on, I have the impression there really is not much market for these at all. So the seemingly low PC replies they usually get are truly due to a lack of demand for a variable and low supply type of item (at least in "nice" or "useful" versions.)
- Based on the above, the PC I'd have guessed for a shield like this was 5-20k. This one being, seemingly, in the case of "nicer" examples, I would guess it's in the higher end of that range than the lower.
- H4V0C told me he'd been thinking 20-30k range.
- So we met in the middle, and I just bought it for 20k.
- For a week or so, I was the only bidder to post an offer on this particular shield (which both H4V0C and I seem to agree is amazing, as it's the sort of thing we appreciate as players ourselves.)
As to the specific shield you have there ...

aegis, gold, non insc
r10 tactics
-2 while enchanted
+1(20%)healing prayers

I would say you might get a buff in interest now given the popularity of -2wE shields these days (although I don't know if the demand for them extends to builds using healing, too.) My guess is that healing is traditionally no more popular an attribute than fire magic.

Perhaps there is a market somewhere with enough interest and demand to reasonably expect getting those 100k+ prices folks mentioned earlier. I've not seen that place (but I'd love to!)

Certainly, there ARE exceptions where multiple collectors will get to fighting over one of these things (I'm in such a fight right now, myself.) I still think such cases are the happy exception to the rule that these kind of shields don't get much love most of the time, and they shouldn't be considered as any kind of guarantee or likelihood to happen on every case.



I would say give it a chance to ignite a bid war, but don't be too disappointed if the big pink globs of gooey sparks don't fly.


I hope it helps.

Cheers & GL!

Knowing a little about Purely's collection, I would argue that one should be careful to note the bias he might be unable to avoid in PCing such an Echovald. He's got a real soft spot in his armor against those.
However, there are far fewer sources of Echovalds than of inherent Aegi! So the rarity increases, most definitely.
