Thank you for the price checks. You will have to determine the items as fakes, as I prefer to play this game in privacy.

Dwarven 500a+ (one of a kind IMO)

I think this will get more than Calli's old Echo.
Def put to auction, & don't sell to anyone who PM's you & don't sell it fast..

dwarven is priceless... tyrian req8+5's are pretty much the rarest stuff to find, combined with one of the rarest & most wanted os skins - ask for whatever u want!

grinning ~100k

eternal 150-200e easily imo

Yep. If that dwarven is real, you're sitting on a fortune.

Enchanted Krystal's advice is spot on.

Forgive my cynicism, but I would love to see that in game. One has never been proven to exist.

I agree with the 500a+ estimation and would say you simply need to decide what you want.

Yep. I imagine we've all scrutinised the screenshot. I know I did, very carefully. And looked at his guru history. He has none.

I'll be waiting to see if ingame first though before I am convinced. But I would like to believe it's real. If so, its a game-changer.

Wait.... what the hell....

That thing is worth more than anyone can possibly afford if its real. Would you show in game to confirm it's existence?

On the subject of the dwarven being a counterfeited image; it's highly probable. I've taken the three images and compared them, noticed some harsh irregularities in the black inner edge that should smoothly follow the silver ring all along the bottom edges of the dwarven; this was done in comparison to other items and my dwarven in game.

In addition, it's suspect due the bizarre cut off at the bottom and the faded darkening on one side to the left, which appears to be the item tooltip sitting over another UI box. The line should be consistent, as the shade of the tooltip box does not change, unless someone has sprayed it out with photoshop.

Probably less obvious but also strange is that the other two items have pretty great screens --which in comparison to the value of a req 8 +5 dwarven axe, is moot. A sloppy handling of the image for what would be a priceless item indicates an effort to hide something, rather than put the best image forward --which is usually the purpose of these screenshots.

People have been faking things like this for years on this forum, so there is going to be a lot of skepticism until someone reputable sees it in game.

If I'm wrong? Great and more power to you, you're wealthy beyond your most filthy dreams --the only problem you will have in selling that is finding someone with enough armbraces to pay for it.

You all crack me up.

If it's real, then yeah, it's obviously worth more than 500a.

Chances are good that it isn't.

There are people who've been around since the beginning and still play and can remember by heart what items another player had. Something like a r8 +5 dwarven would not only be remembered, it would be fondly recalled around a virtual campfire by many.

It didn't exist and until the fellow backs it up in game, it doesn't exist. =)

This 100%


And from the posted comments by the OP, point proven.

Does anyone else smell burning pants?

I 100%agree with shadow fell and EK above me as to why this is fake ^. For example, that q8 +5e FDS hasn't been seen in quite some time, but I know exactly who owns it. The items of this caliber are those that we all know who owned/owns now and when they were last online.
