Actually it will be hard to sell since it has a really high req. I've seen someone offer 200k+ for composite bows with that dmg mod, it was a much lower req. though

That argument never seems to get old.

But as is, your bow could fetch 100-150k. Although finding a buyer will be tough. A few 15>50 composites with 8 req sold for 200k so yours is much lower because of the 5 more req.

So by your logic...the bow you have posted here:

http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...ad.php?t=38234

Wouldn't be worth anything because the collector can give you a similar one but with lower req? 60k...100k...they're not much of a difference when, like you say, you can get a collector bow for less than 1/20th of that price.

And gold lettering means a lot in this game. A gold fellblade with no damage mods and bad upgrades could get three times as much as a white one.

People would have stopped buying bows, according to your logic. Shortbows, Longbows and Composite Bows all are available from the collector.
Gold Shortbows 15>50 Req 8 go for around 250-30K
Gold Longbows 15>50 Req 8 go for around 100-120K
Gold Composite Bows Req 8 go for around 200K.

I removed all of my comments because I realized that composite bows are really different from ascalons and the basic version of the longbow (not the feathery one) is the one from a collector.
