Some things i have noticed.. -10 armor axes are listed at the same or slightly less price then 15^50. NOT EVEN CLOSE. My Gothic Dual Axe req 8 15 -10 cant even sell for 100k

Saw someone selling same with 20/20 +30 for 100k +6ectos and no buyers, put the range down to 80-100k with those. IMO

Also Dead Bow -5 energy. NOT EVEN CLOSE. 20/20 +30 and cant even get 100k+15 ectos for it. Drop Range down to 200-300k for minus energy ones IMO

Hope this helps some, and -10 armor axes are not in the same price range as 15^50 ones, usually around 50-100k less then their 15 above conterparts.

Plagueborn Hornbow req 8 Max, +15 Enchanted...

About 30k modless?

Been told they count as a rare skin, but are never as valuable as things like Zealous.

Bought Req 8 Onis +5 e for 17k.
Guy wanted 20, I offered 15...
(btw- this was 3 minutes after accidentally selling a +30hp handle to the merch...

)

This thread has been invaluable to me in determining base value ranges over the past few months.
I would really like to see if we could put together a value base on more weapon types with +5 e. (I'm partial to Sins

)

On that note; I am wondering if Salient Daggers and/or Golden Talons, while still considered new, are also considered Rare and worthy of the list.

Not a flame here Rahl, but Flashing Blades{E} is a stance, and very popular with sins. Especially when at DM 16, you have a 21 second duration on a 20 sec recharge elite.

In your defense, I have predominately used 15^50 or enchanted (with Way of Perfection) up til now.
That having been said... when used properly in big fights (enter/spike/back off), a Sin with a 25 energy base trying to fire off an enchant, stance, attack, offhand, then a dual- the extra 5 energy is very appealing!

Looking through the +5 Energy base prices, i saw no Zodiac Hammers..
Just wondered if it's totally useless, because I have:
Zodiac Hammer;
Req 8;
Dmg 19-35;
+5 Energy.

Considering it's not max damage, I'd say merchant food but get other's opinions first too.

@Dobermann, cause the economy is crawling and theres no demand for it atm?

- tidied up the caster equipment section...BIG THANKS TO WILDERNESS

Staffs

~standard skin staffs

10/10 - these range from 15-100k.
Maybe more depending on rarity of skin+req

Example:

Quote:

Inscribed Staff (req13 water) 10/10 = hard to sell for < 15k
Platinum staff (req8blood) 10/10 = 100k+

10/20 - 20% recharge will sell for more then 20% casting - these both tend to sell better then 10/10

staves but there are always exceptions

~Hi-end staff skins

Take Ghostly skin for an example:

Quote:

Ghostly 10/10: 50k+ (poor req) 100k+ (good req)
Ghostly 20/20 500k+ any req

Ghostly 20/10 (casting) 200k+ unless its mesmer then lower because casting means nothing to a mesmer

Ghostly 20/10 (recharge) 250k+ recharge is normally prefered over casting

prices based on attribute AND req matching
ie: req10 blood
20% recharge (blood)

Wands
10/20 (casting) 20-30k
10/20 (recharge) 30-50k

5ene^50 10% (recharge) 30-50k
5ene^50 10% (casting) 10-20k

mis-matched stats are harder to sell and up to 50% lower in value

Bought req. 8 zodiac longbow 15%/E-5 15-28 some crappy string and grip for 30K a few months ago (I really had the impression the seller didn't know what he was doing)
Tried to sell it for prices varying 100K+8ecto and 100K+20ecto depending on my mood (greedy or wanting to sell quick)
I only got offers from ppl who turned out to be scammers and a few "ROFLCOPTER 100K+8ECTO"-replies.
After A LOT of time and effort I sold it to someone for 100K. You might wanna adjust the price for zodiac longbows cuz noone seems to want em anymore

What about a +5e Jittie?

Also Shadow bows are over-priced. Due to Elsywths Recurve bow, Shadows are far lower then they should be.

Ive just read thru like all 15 pages of this topic lol and have to agree with alot of what ppl have said here. For the past month ive tried to sell like 5 pairs of Perfect Daggers and when im offered like 5k for a gold maxed pair of req 8 golden talons i know im having 1 of those days. True its becoming increasingly harder to sell items and i totally agree with the idea of some kind of auction house. also jut a quick question... i have 2 energy + 5 weapons n wondered if i cud get a pc as they wasnt in the guide..

Zodiac Sword ( Req 11 ) +5 nrg
Celestial Longbow (Req 8 ) +5 nrg

Thanx in advance.

Nice touch-up job on the staffs, much clearer. Wands could use some expanding on though, if I may be so bold as to offer my own observations on those:

Wands

Common Skins

10/10 15-30k

10/20 (casting) 20-50k
10/20 (recharge) 30-200k+

5e^50 10% (casting) 10-25k
5e^50 10% (recharge) 10-50k

5e^50 20% (casting) 10-75k
5e^50 20% (recharge) 50-200k+

20/20 100-400k+

Vanity Skins (Platinum, Dragon’s Breath, Zodiac...)

10/10 40-100k

10/20 (casting) 30-75k
10/20 (recharge) 75-300k+

5e^50 10% (casting) 20-75k
5e^50 10% (recharge) 50-150k

5e^50 20% (casting) 25-200k
5e^50 20% (recharge) 75-300k+

20/20 150-400k+

*Some wands have the potential to go well beyound the base-line price, for example a req 8 Divine Favor Platinum Wand 20% / 20% could sell for far more then 400k.

**In certain cases such as 10/20 (casting), 5ene^50 10% (casting) and 5ene^50 20% (casting), where the 20% casting is “death” the value may be considerably higher.

***The above prices assume matching stats/reqs, mis-matched stats are harder to sell and up to 50% lower in value and may even be worthless.

I knew that already

ppl didnt spend millions on crystallines because they think they look pretty its because they were hard to obtain.

Bittlepicks would sell for millions if they were rare also..seeing as they are not + the ugly skin = merch food

Can anyone give me an idea for a PC on a clean, max, req 9 Magmas shield? I know, no mods = no money, but I'm just curious, because it's a fairly low req, and the skin seems to be pretty popular...

Woah! I have one, too - 15^50, dmg 6-22, cruel haft (req 9, though, so probably not a 10k-er). I thought it was junk, too, not being max dmg. I'm glad I held onto it for my warrior as a spare weap instead of just shop-selling!

Thx, Herb - that's actually more than I expected.

I think the prices for GPB's really need to be lowered. Ive been trying to sell a req 9, 15 stance one and I cant even get 20k for it. (The guide suggests 40-60k. That is never going to happen...)

These prices are a little out of date, even though it was updated late august. Can give you some sword prices with date of transaction:

Mid August
-Sold a gothic sword req 9 +15 -5 for about 40k (guru suggests 70-100k
-Bought a gothic sword req8 +15 -5 (with max furious max fortitude mods) for I think 75k (guru suggest 100-150 for the sword alone, mods are worth maybe additional 50k, nice guy I bought it from and I bought it to keep)
-Bought a req10 15>50 crenellated sword for 30k (guru suggested I think 80k at the time)
-Resold this sword for 50k mid august (guru now suggests 50-80k)

Late August
Bought a req8 15>5 shadow blade, 41k (guru suggests 50-70k)

Since then I've put off selling any more of this stuff because the demand is so low it's just a waste of time trying to sell it when I could make better use of my time getting drunk =b

I sold a Golden Phoenix Sword req8 15% -5e for 80k, spoke to somebody on guru chat who had the same problem and couldn't unload for the 150-250k it is listed as in this thread.
