First, I'll say that in the end, it's a free market. People are going to sell items for whatever they can sell them for. I've made good money on tinkering myself - especially when there weren't so many of us with high skill.

While doing Gnomish Vanishing Devices for my guild (new members) I ended up with an extra eye [and Bocote dumped one on me recently too]. So, I fashioned an extra GVD for resale.

Today's GVD was bought from my trader for 4,200 and placed back for resale for 10,000. Since others in the Bazaar have seen GVDs for 10,000 - they aren't willing to sell their Haze Panther Eyes for less than 4,000, and they have them on their vendors at 4,500.

Doesn't bother me too much. At 4,500 per haze panther eye, I'm not interested in making GVDs. You get about a 5/7 make rate at 250, so they "cost" 6720 to make (with 4800 in supplies).

So, here's my current GVD offer: I'll make any GVD combine attempt for you when you intend to keep the GVD for personal use. Your odds of getting a GVD from a single set of materials are about 70%. In return for a GVD combine, I'd prefer that you collect two sets of materials, or at least ATTEMPT to get a second Haze Panther Eye. If you can't; if the Haze Panthers hate you, then my offer is still good for those people who can't afford anything but one attempt at the parts. Poor, coinless people without invisibility devices are free not to tip. Rich people with overflowing banks may donate extra parts if they wish.

[I'll also be buying Haze Panther Eyes for 1500 in an attempt to bring the price on GVDs back to 3-4k.]

I have a similar offer for Elemental Bowcams: I'll combine your elemental bowcams (which seem to have a 90-95% make rate) in exchange either free/tips if you're making your own bows for personal use, or for a small percentage of your cams (10% or so) if you're making them for resale.

This isn't a plea for skill points. I'm 244 with a 10% Robe and my Magelo is verified. The last 6 points aren't going to be gained by half a dozen GVD combines, and they're completely useless to me except for vanity. (244+10%<255)

While I'm griping on the bazaar, I'd like to thank the unguilded anonymous guy who purchased the Tome of Winds Wisdom for 1cp from our bank trader this week.

I don't mind, honestly, the 7 or 8k I was going to sell it for is a drop in the bucket to the guildbank, and hey, I was the one who fucked up (leaving it at a price to transfer it between mules while /traders = 500), but it just continues to reinforce what an absolute collection of shitbags the bazaar is full of.

WTS 4 bags of stuff at Torch 4.

Majiolis

I really dont understand how he's a shitbag.. you set the price for it and he bought it.
If you want to transfer items you can use shared bank space, or you can give the item directly to the person if its another account!
grats~

I agree with Majiolis. I'm not sure how you can blame anyone else for your risky maneuver. With so many other mechanisms to transfer/trade items, that has got to be the one with the highest chance of getting screwed on. *shrug

ps. I look forward to taking you up on your previous offer however ;-)

Bolinworrior bought a 1cp item from me. It was only worth maybe 3k before PoP destroyed the economy, but I'd like to kick him in the nuts from behind just or the satisfaction.
