Default Why are there so many manastones for sale?

I have basically been unable to play lately. But a couple weeks back I invested in a manastone for 235k. Some are being sold for less than 200 now! I don't care about that loss, but when I look at ec forums and the eqauctions website there are just tons of them for sale, and I am wondering what has caused this sudden increase in stones for sale and decrease in value.

Maybe there are more in game than I thought, and I will not be selling mine, but is there something going on??

Because everyone knew what a manastone was before this server even went live (unlike in actual live during that time) and everyone and their dog farmed one. And I doubt they ever get destroyed.

Always have been a ton of them on this server. As for them selling a lot more, I'm not sure. People quitting, no more player auctions to make tons of money, lots of people having zero use for them,.. not really sure.

Some one said something about how they are being duped right now. Could or could not be.

Rogean closed that thread up in a matter of minutes though.

It does look like they're being duped.

I'm not arguing against the possibility of duping. However, has anybody considered that a lot of people are coming back to play on Velious? I know of at least 2 people I've grouped with recently who just started playing again and haven't played since classic that said the whole reason they started playing on this server originally was for Velious.

Another thing to consider is that with every expansion a manastone's use usefulness does tend to go down since you have more non-classic zones. I'm not saying that it isn't useful, but not every class and just port back to classic zones real fast to get some mana. Of course, maybe 200k is a great investment to do ghetto powerleveling in classic zones, I don't know.

I'd be buying as many sub 200k manastones as I could right now...
