Buying Humps! (No kidding! Check my buy thread)

Hello Kitty Krewe [HKK] Forever!-ish

Ok, as promised earlier, here's what help/guesses I can offer, and yeah, the lack of response/help you're getting may very well be due to the sheer volume of stuff you've listed here. Looking at some of it, I'm not surprised to hear you're getting more PMs about this than replies.

For each one, I'll try to list the reserve and/or buyout I would use if I had all of this myself to sell today and no better PC info to go by than what I mention first. The reserve is what I think I'd be hard pressed to sell below; the buyouts are what I think would be a reasonably fair price to both seller and buyer should someone not want to wait around for an auction to end (or direct trade in game.) Realize those are just my guesses! You may have different experience/research than I do. Hopefully if I'm way off one way or another, someone will come along to correct me!


1. max gold r11 Celestial Axe, +5e inherent: My impression is that the inherent martial Celestial stuff is generally not as in demand/popular and has more supply than inherent martial Zodiac stuff. Recently, it took me a while to sell an r10 +5 Zodiac Axe for 10k. So I would guess that your axe here is probably no more than that, probably hard to sell, and you may have to settle for more like 5kish.
I'd list it for 1k reserve, 10k buyout.

2. max gold r11 Celestial Axe, 15^50 inherent: Same as above, but I think it might be even harder to find an interested buyer. It seems to me like there's more demand for +5e inherent axes and swords than 15^50 inherent axes and swords lately.
I'd list it for 1k reserve, 10k buyout.

3. max gold r11 Celestial Daggers, +5e inherent:
4. max gold r10 Celestial Daggers, 15^50 inherent:
... I'd guess 5-10k tops on these, too.
I'd list each for 1k reserve, 10k buyout.

5. max gold r9 Celestial Longbow, 15^50 inherent: This one has that nice r9 going for it, which should help. (Often seems anything over r9 these days has cooties when it comes to finding interested buyers.) I'm taking a shaky guess that reasonable, fair buyout for this is around 25k.
I'd list it for 12k reserve, 25k buyout.

6. max gold r10 str Celestial Shield, -poison / -2wE inherents: I'm under the impression that Celestial Shields are not hugely popular skins. There are fans, sure, but the overall demand to supply ratio for these is on the low side. "Dual inscription" modded shields can sometimes be quite popular for the functionality they offer, but I can't think of some obvious situation where these particular mods come in extremely handy. I wouldn't predict this one starts a bid war, and it's the sort of thing I'd just be happy to find anyone besides the merchant wanting at all.
I'd list it for 1k reserve, 5k buyout.

7. max gold r13 tact Celestial Shield, -2stance / 10v Dragons: There are some dragon gear collectors around lately, but there isn't much dragon fighting going on in meta. I think this is strictly a collector item. With the high req and the rather uninspiring stance mod, I can't see this sparking frenzied bid wars among multiple collectors.
First, I'd check with Adult (he's got a buy thread with a big Dragon shield collection he's working on,) before listing it for public offers. I'd list it for 1k reserve, 5k buyout.

8. max gold cold dmg. r9 Channeling Celestial Staff, 20/10 inherent: Ok, the background/disclaimers I can offer ...
- I don't collect Celestial or Bo Staffs myself. The only PC info I wind up knowing is stuff I either buy or sell. I rarely get Celestial Staffs to sell, but I get quite a few Bo Staffs.
- I would guess that we're seeing roughly as many new Bo Staffs coming to market these days as Celestial Staffs. Things like Cho's and Jade Brotherhood farming seem as popular/meta these days as Vermin farming has been for years now. I know there are big fans of both skins, but I have no idea if there is more, less or about the same demand for Celestial Staffs as there is for Bo Staffs.
- Loot-drop Ritualist staffs can have any one of the four elemental damage types (cold, earth, fire, lightning.) Sometimes, a particular elemental damage type on a Rit staff will make it extra appealing to some buyers for the potential synergy with team bars. For Cold damage, there's a nice synergy with Spinal Shivers. I don't think this is nearly so popular as to warrant a higher PC for one elem damage type instead of another, but it's the sort of thing that might affect buyers' interests in some situations.
- If that were a Bo Staff instead of a Celestial Staff, I think the PC would be about 20-25e, given it's r9 and Channeling is pretty popular. So, if I had to sell it with nothing better to go by ...
I'd list it for 80k reserve and 25e buyout. Realize that is a VERY SHAKY guess!

9. max gold r9 Holy Staff, 20/10 inherent: I doubt it affects PC much, as the various dye quirkiness on some core skins isn't really well known and seems even fewer players care when it comes to shopping, but were that mine I would first test yellow dye on it. If yellow dye makes it look kind of purple, then it's a normal Holy Staff. If it turns a different color with yellow dye or doesn't dye at all, then it's not as common. Either way, I think this is hard to sell at all. For the most part, the skin seems to be considered quite common and undesirable. 20/10s in such skins are very hard to sell these days.
I'd list it for 1k reserve, 5k buyout.

10. max gold r10 Fire Celestial Staff, 20/10 inherent: Ok, like 8 above I'm basing this on my shaky Bo Staff PC knowledge, coupled with my impression that a lot of buyers aren't interested in anything that doesn't say r9 or lower. I would guess Fire is about the same if not slightly less popular a staff attribute than Channeling, so ...
another VERY SHAKY guess that I'd list it for 40k reserve, 15e buyout

11. max gold r10 Earth Celestial Staff, 20/20 Fire inherent: Wow, tricky! I'm unavoidably biased here, as I'm a big fan of mixed staffs who really doesn't care for Celestial Staff skin. I know I'm not the only mixed staff fan (have found myself in bid wars with other fans over "nice" mixed mod staffs in the past,) but I have the impression we're few and far between. In terms of usefulness, potential functionality ... um, I don't think it's either super useful or utterly useless looking; like most mixed 20/20s it's kind of in between, niche build-y. If I had that one to sell today, I'd try to get an idea for PC on an r10 20/20 Fire Celestial Staff, then I'd price this one at maybe 5-10% of that number. Sorry, but I don't know the matched 20/20 PC to start from.

12. max gold r9 Celestial Sword, 15^50 inherent: Of all the martial Celestial weapons, I think this one is the least favored. I've often heard this skin described as looking like something which would be inappropriate for me to mention here. It does have the shiny r9 15^50 going for it, so I doubt it's merchfood.
I'd list it for 5k reserve, 15k buyout.

13. max gold r9 Blood Cockatrice Staff, 20/20 Blood inherent: Nice one! I have the impression that Cockatrice Staffs drop more frequently from the same sources folks farm Celestials. I know there are fans of the skin around, but they've never seemed way up there in terms of demand to supply ratio in general. Matched 20/20s don't drop all that often in any skin, and the r9 shininess to go with it makes this one even more collectible.
A couple months ago, I think I remember jimbo was selling an r9 20/20 Earth Cockatrice staff which went for 65e. I would guess Blood is not quite as marketable an attribute as Earth, so were this mine ...
I'd list it for 50e reserve, no buyout, and give it a week or so to see if it sparked a bid war between more than one collector.

14. max gold r10 Crenellated Sword, 15^50 inherent: I have the impression these are a rather rare skin but also a rather low-demand skin, too. Stuff like that is always tricky to PC ahead of time I think. A friend gave me his r10 insc. Crenellated Sword to try to sell a while back. I shopped it around for 10k buyout a while, but I didn't get anyone interested even in haggling the price down with me. So that's where I'm getting my impression that they're low demand. I never did sell that sword, and my friend wound up letting me keep it for my weird collections rather than him taking it back to merch.
I'd list it for 3k reserve, 10k buyout

15. max gold r9 Divine Symbol, 10wH / 15/-1: I doubt it affects the PC too much, but you should include the skin variant (loop or chalice) when you list it for sale. The r9 and the 15/-1 are nice, but that 10wH will turn a lot of buyers off, I think. It's actually not a bad mod for an afterburner, but I don't see this one being worth all that much.
I'd list it for 1k reserve, 10k buyout

16. max gold r10 Earth Scroll, +5vPhys / +30: Functionally, it's quite meh, but it may have value to some inherent focus collectors out there.
Like 15. above, I'd go with 1k reserve and 10k buyout.

17. max gold r9 tact Emblazoned Defender, +30 singlemod: It's probably merchfood Last I noticed, it's not particularly difficult or expensive to find an inscribable one. I can't see why someone would want a single-modded inherent one instead. Were it mine and I had a sell thread going anyway ...
I'd list it for 1k reserve, 5k buyout ... and not feel too bad merching it when no one wanted it after a few days.

18. max gold r9 Fire Shadow Staff, 20/10 inherent: I'm under the impression that FoWSC has completely flooded the market with Shadow Staffs to the point that all the 20/10 ones are merchfood now. It might make a decent staff for a fire ele hero, though. Were it mine and I had a sell thread going anyway ...
I'd list it for 1k reserve, 5k buyout ... and not feel too bad merching it when no one wanted it after a few days.

19. max gold r11 Healing Ankh, 19% +1 Smiting / 5wE: Pretty sure this is merchfood, too, due to the mixed and imperfect mod and the unpopular armor mod. Once again, were it mine and I had a sell thread going anyway ...
I'd list it for 1k reserve, 5k buyout ... and not feel too bad merching it when no one wanted it after a few days.

20. max gold r9 Inscribed Chakram, 20HSR Inspiration / +60wH: That one is sad. One of the most desirable maxed inherent focus mods, but it's mixed ... and coupled with one of the least desirable yet rarest to find max mods. I think this will be really hard to sell, but it's the sort of thing I'd want to give a chance, so were it mine and I had a sell thread going anyway ...
I'd list it for 1k reserve, 5k buyout ... and I'd feel awful merching it when no one wanted it after a few days.

21. max gold r8 Inscribed Chakram, 10v giants singlemod: r8 is rare and 10v giants is pretty rare these days since so relatively few players farm Prophecies where that can drop. But it's pretty useless. I think this is another 1k/5k thing.

22. max gold r9 Earth Jade Wand, 15/-1 / 10hsr inherents: The req and mods are nice, desirable and not easy to find on inherent wands. The skin hurts it, though. I don't know of anyone who likes and collects Jade Wands, and we see so many of them show up for sale.
I'd list it for 5k reserve and 15k buyout maybe

23. max gold r9 Earth Koi Scepter, 20HSR Earth / 9hct inherents: The skin isn't generally hated, but it's not especially uncommon either due to them dropping from the same heavily farmed sources that produce Celestial loot. The r9 and 20HSR matched are quite sexy, but the 1-off 9hct is going to hurt it I think. superraptors' earlier PCs on these surprised me. I would not have guessed the demand to supply ratio for such things was anywhere near that high. Were this one mine to sell, I'd have done more like ...
5k reserve, 15-20k buyout

24. max gold r10 smiting Koi Scepter, 20hsr smiting, +5^50: I think 5^50 is not as popular a mod on wands as it used to be. The matching and max 20hsr should still be appealing to collectors. Again, I would not have guessed nearly as high as superraptors. Were this one mine to sell, I'd have been looking at more like ...
5k reserve, 20-25k buyout

25. max gold r9 Plagueborn Maul, 15^50 inherent: I think these are still plenty popular, but they're also pretty well supplied. In my experience, r9 15^50 plagueborn stuff is 15-25k range, so I'd have reserve and buyout set like that.

26. max gold r13 tact Plagueborn Shield, +41wE / 20% +1 Air inherents: the 4-off wE hp mod will hurt it, but I doubt it makes it merch food. These inherent +1 caster att shields come in and out of favor over the years. A few months ago there seemed a surge of interest, but these days it seems to me like they're back down to the rather low-demand, niche-build/collector items they usually are. Were it mine to sell, I'd so something like ...
5k reserve, 15-20k buyout

27. max gold r9 Illusion Plagueborn Staff, 20/10 inherent: I don't think these are considered a rare enough skin anymore for 20/10s to be all that easy to sell, but it's probably easier than Shadow Staffs.
5k reserve, 10-15k buyout

28. max gold r11 tact Shield of the Wing, -dazed / 10vPiercing inherents: I'm not familiar enough with the meta to know for sure what drives it, but it seems like 10vPiercing shields are quite popular lately. If they're popular because of a situation that can also daze you (on a character who needs to cast spells) then this one could be quite useful. I just don't know for sure, so I wouldn't want to set a buyout ahead of time. I wouldn't go into it expecting a bid war, so were it mine to sell ...
I'd list it for ... 3k reserve, no buyout, and just let it run a few bumps to see if it struck anyone's fancy.

29. max gold r9 Water Plagueborn Staff, 20/10 inherent: Same situation as 27 above, but I'd think Water might be more popular than Illusion so ...
5k reserve, closer to 15k buyout

Guesses for reserves and buyouts added to quote below, ~ ones are shaky guesses. Some of them are ones that in my experience are both really rare to find for sale and really rare to find buyers. I marked those with *, and they're cases where I usually hang onto them until I find the buyer rather than auction them off as I get them.

Yeah, that was a lot! Maybe try smaller batches next time? You're lucky GW servers went down a few hours ago when I started typing this.
