I'm really amazed about Stockmarket*… Not a single thread has been made about the dude, but I think he really deserves a special mention in the world of nerdery. Honestly... Is he really floodin the tunnel with a full jewelry catalogue every fucking day since 2010*? I think so...
That dude is a legend. Everybody knows Stockmarket, right? When you guys need to buy cheap jewelry, one name*: Stockmarket ! And god knows he's the cheapest. Nice dude also, always polite.
But a burning question remains... How the fuck he manages*? I always wondered... He isnt an enchanter for sure, and he never seems to run out of stock. WTF*! Xfers*? 50 slots bags*? Triple Boxing*? Good friends*? Does he buy bulk ready made*from other crafters*? Theories.. theories... I wanna know*!

I was talking to Diogene about this today and I'm wondering the same thing. Does he play other characters or just amass wealth for no reason? I'm sure it makes it frustrating for newish characters who want to sell some jewelry on the side when you're competing with someone who has it down as a science since 2010.

Also makes mystic koaddal armor. You know the neon teal armor on level 27 bard corpses everywhere.

Wonder how rich they are.

Llewellyn made my Enchanted Dwarven Plate armor.

IDK about this stockmarket character but I would like to

Stockmarket was my bread and butter, not sure what the going rate is these days but used to pay 30pp for a Drop of Mercury. I'd get stacks from the Hole and unload, most just vendored them. Would occasionally find a large sum of these on a vendor (think I found 32 one time and they are like 1pp a piece or something low), I'd leave one so it would show in inventory and buy the rest.

I've probably made like 5k off Stockmarket, whereas they probably made 40k off me haha. Good symbiotic relationship.

He also buys my Najena crap like Swirling Mist anytime of the day and year, stable price, any quantity. I don't even need him on my friend list I just /tell stockmarket with quantity and off I go to T1!

I think he is probably a robot.
I like him anyway!

According to President Drump stockmarket is highest in history so he must be doing something right.

Someone once told me he thought enchanters who didn’t want to stand in tunnel sold to him in bulk but I doubt it. There is not enough inventory slots for made goods when you’re auctioning 30+ items and xN each. As far as I know the guy never moves so someone is bringing him enchanted bars and gems 12 hours per day (or how ever much he is on) for the last 7+ years.

Sounds like he is excelling at Bazaar-Quest. Some people love that part of the game. Its one of the great things about Everquest... so many niches.

Always looked for this char when I wanted jewelry. Also, they were kind enough to donate handsomely for the DoF Christmas giveaway:

Cool! Didn't know that. I can relate to TunnelQuesting as well : )

I know Stockmarket does Dwarven Cultural Smithing, so some alts are definitely doing the combines and transfers. He isn't limited to just jewelry.

Love that he stands with just that huge pointed lance, sometimes naked sometimes in crustacean armor. So easy to find.

Leveled up with Stockmarket's main back in the day. He's a great guy and a lot of fun to group with. Still waiting for him to form his own guild.

you know, the smart way to do things is to get the mats yourself and ask someone to make the stuff you want for free! Winning!

Godamnit, this is rants and flames, not hall of fame, so calm down nerds ! Everybody knows Stockmarket is a standup guy. That wasnt my initial question so back to topic. He must have 10+ millions plats by now. What the fuck is he doing with it? Also, how in the hell is he able to manage his stock? Who xfer for him all day long? I can feel this is just the tip of the iceberg. There must be some real dark truth behind all this. Children abuse for a stack of BD's? Dead dogs orgies for a couple of +65 rings ? You name it. I want him banned for all the potential harm he's done (and the real harm being him killing the JC market for so long xD)

I like when new jewelcrafters try to break into the scene with their overpriced wares that no one buys because Stockmarket has them all beat.

Must suck to be a new JCer though. :D

Yeah heaven forbid someone try to start a trade skill on this server. Especially when you have to sink 10k into it and try to recover your start up cost.

Something is fishy here. There is an unusual number of asterisks and ellipses in this post. I wonder if this post is even about Stockmarket? It must be some form of secret code to trigger the elite haxxorz. This should definitely be looked into.

To answer your question, Stockmarket is a helluva guy, and we're lucky to have him. Three cheers for Stockmarket!

You seem to know some pretty intimate details about his account.

I bought some cultural armor from him a while ago. He didn't have it on him, he told me it would be available when he talked to his crafter. It took about a week, he mentioned that the person who made that particular armor hadn't been on that much. So I'd guess he's subcontracting out most of the crafted armor at least, if not the jewelry.

I really really doubt that is the with the Jewelry. I know I can go through 80 pieces in maybe 4 hours and while not even hitting it that hard(afk somewhat). There isn't enough inventory space to have someone transferring made pieces that often.

Maybe it's not that many. I haven't really kept track but I know on a good day I have to re-get each 20 stack val, plat, gold, electrum. Add to that all the gems and made items etc.

I'm so bored by the overall tone* of the conversation that I wanna drink shampoo*. If Stockmarket is soooo nice as you all seem to say thats because... K-i-n-d-n-e-s-s* always comes at a price. Amirrite*? And this might be the price of pain and horror.

Anyway, upon further research it appears Stockmarket* violates naming policy* real bad. How can you immerse* with such a douche around*? I personally find it difficult, as a Rping jewelcrafter when I see Stockmarket around auctioning this, Stockmarket auctioning that and so on 24/7. For that he should be perma banned*, strucked by Bracknar's giant dick*. We need to unplug the dude, we're not playing a spreadsheet simulator, its fucking everquess*.

this is what I mean when I talk about good visual aesthetics for a post. I read the entire thing and it's by a poster I don't read anything by ever. It just markets so well. I had to read the whole thing to realize it was just unfunny bluebie stuff. That puts it in the top 95% of this forum's posts.

Just by using lots of fun punctuation, attractive paragraph length and spacing, and overall coming off whimsically you can land yourself in a very comfortable forum rank bracket relative to the population at large.
