I remember a few people trying to sell them for 70k in lions arch / ascalon city. Might have been trying to rip people off though, it's so common now...

A plain max eternal bow would probably fetch you 30-50k depending on reqs.

1.5-3k is way too low.

About 40K I'd guess. Keep trying in LA dis 1, and you'll get a buyer sooner or later.

20-30k without mods idk why but it is. 50k-60k if mods are decent. 70k+ if mods are really good.

these are the prices from a frd who sells them.

In actual fact the bow itself isn't worth any more than any other bow with the same stats. People just seem to be willing pay ungodly sums for an item that looks funky but gives them no more actual game advantage than something they could get for a 10th the cost.

People need a way to spend their money. The popularity of 15K armors alone is proof of that. No advantage...just looks.

Dargon, the bow is worth exactly how much someone will pay for it.

If someone pays 100k+7 superior vigors for it then that is how much THAT bow was worth.

Thats not to say you could sell the exact same bow to someone else for that price but still.

That being said, eternal bows do suck .

Paying money for dye or 15k armor is one thing, it's just as good as the cheaper one.

Paying extra money for an eternal bow is just beyond my comprehension... The flight statistics blow. Sacrificing money for a cool looking bow is one thing, sacrificing performance is another.

It looks cool and isn't the only place to get it in either FoW or the UW? Maybe that's why people are willing to pay so much. *shrugs* I don't play a bowslinger. I'd rather just fry you before you get too close to me.
