A/

embossed, apperently 200e due to powertraders buying all perfect demons shields.
shadow shield thought i'd saw one sell for 50e but could be 150e as wel, not sure.
Kappa, can't say
water staff, gut says 15-20e
earth 30-40k imo
crude, no idea. 30-35k perhaps?

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

Hello Kitty Krewe [HKK] Forever!-ish

What info I can offer on ones that I have even rough guess of numbers for ...

1. Embossed Aegis, req 11 str, +45wE, +10 vs Demons

I'm not really sure, but ele kid's 200e guess doesn't strike me as outrageous. Neither the skin nor the strength req. will do nearly as much for it as the perfect +45wE on a 10vDemons shield. More popular skinned shields with +42-43wE and 10vDemon combos are PCed as possibly over 100e. I think a more popular skin shield with the max mods like yours could reasonably get bids at or beyond two stacks.



3. Kappa Shield, req 12 str, +45/st, -2/st

Not at all sure how to guess "what it should be worth," but some recent sell-to-best-offer results you might find helpful:
- I sold an r11 Tactics Kappa Shield, +44stance | -2stance for 10e (80k) high bid on this Sell thread in Feb. 2012.
- I sold an r12 Tactics Kappa Shield, -2stance | +43stance for 10k high bid a couple weeks ago on this Mar. 2012 Sell thread.

Both were inherent. If there's anything to the "1-off versions go for roughly 10% of perfect versions" rule, then perhaps you're looking at expectations close to but not quite 100e?


4. Canthan Water Staff, req 9, 20/20 water

Last Dec. (before ele buff, if that maters,) a friend had an r10 inherent, matched 20/20 Canthan/metal skin Water Staff for sale on a Sell thread. I wound up buying it for 20e, an offer I PMed him that seemed to be less than the reserve he was aiming for but more than anyone else had offered (if anyone else even offered on it at all - I can't remember.)

With the current apparent state of the market for matched 20/20 staffs, I'm guessing you get a huge boost in fair market value of r9 since so many buyers these days will settle for nothing higher. A few weeks to a month before I bought mine, r9 matched 20/20 Canthan/metal "Air Staffs" were PCed (seemingly reasonably so due to multiple active collectors) as 100e+. If those or similar collectors are still around and also missing this skin from their collection, perhaps you're looking at close to that same number still. I'm not sure how the overall market values the metal-skin Water Staff vs. Air Staff. Water Staffs may be somewhat higher supplied than Air Staffs given what's out there dropping loot, so ... maybe try reserve of around 60-70e area to start if you have no other info to go by?


5. Canthan Earth Staff, req 10, 20/19 earth

I've found 20/19s so very hard to sell at all these days; so few buyers seem to be interested in accepting imperfect. Were it mine, I'd be happy to sell it all and amazed if anyone offered more than 15kish for it.


6. Crude Shield, req 11 tac, +10 vs Slashing, Prot +1 (20%)

Tricky. It's funky with a popular enough skin and shiny max, if also rather odd, dual mods. I've not seen these +1 caster att shields sell for anything like big bucks unless they've got a perfect +hp second mod and a sexy skin. I'd think this one is worth trying to sell, but I wouldn't advise going into it with reserve expectations much past the 10-15kish area if you're wanting to sell it fast. With that mix, it's either a niche collector piece and/or niche build/situation gear. - there aren't always a lot of buyers lining up to devote storage space to such variety. A bid war could happen; I simply wouldn't advise pricing it up front like one was a guarantee, that's all.



Cheers & GL!

Disclaimer - fallenangel, the OP, is a good friend of mine and close enough to a guildie that we don't post on each others' Sell and Buy threads, yes. I don't post anything on PC threads knowingly biased for or against any individual user, no. As with anything I post on PC threads, this is nothing other than my sincere attempt at best objective guesses with info I think might help the OP or anyone else finding this thread with similar PC questions.

1. Embossed Aegis, req 11 str, +45wE, +10 vs Demons - If you get a bid war on this one Id say 250e-500e on the current market. The Skin is pretty meh to collectors, but the perfect stats more than make up for that. Popular skins seem to go for 750e-1000e+ nowadays for +45^e/10 vs Demons (feel free to correct me here in regards to this shield. I didnt keep my eyes open for the difference between Strength and Tactics requirements here.

2. Shadow Shield, req 8 str, -5(20%), +29 - Maybe 50-100e tops because of the 1 off HP mod

6. Crude Shield, req 11 tac, +10 vs Slashing, Prot +1 (20%) - I agree with Luny here. I wouldnt see this one going for much more than 20K (Maybe 50K if you get a bid war on it)
