Char Hides @ Piken Square

Why do people buy them? And how much do they go for?

4 hides can be traded to the collector in Ascalon for a fur square which sold a bit ago for me for 200 gold

However, quite a few jerks buy them for dirt cheap at Piken Square from people who have no idea how to turn them into Fur Squares.

Can you actually make much gold from doing this? By much I mean 10k plus an hour.

some people have been collecting hides for some time and dont pay attention until they start taking up a second slot.

250 hides bought at 10-15 and turned into fur and sold makes a nice profit.

they jump in for a short time and grab whatever quick sales they can and hold them until the fur price goes up a bit and sell until it goes down a bit.

as a sideline it is very profitable

jerks on the scale of black dye grabbers in presear

While some people may be making a lot of money by buying hides cheaply and crafting fur squares, I use them for my own armor. I also gave a few to a ranger the other day in Borliss Pass. Otherwise, I guess you could salvage them to tanned hide squares.....
