Default EQ Pricewatch

Since we are in classic. How do we price our loots and craftables? Are you going off Live prices at this time? Are you going off how they were back in 1999? Some are expensive, and some are super cheap. I remember there was a time when I used a site that was based off EQ prices on every tradeable item.

Is there a possiblity to have a thread which lists every item in the game as it stands now, and have an average price tag listed with it? --I would assume there would need to be someone to manage this thread. But it sure would help in determining how much to charge on average.

Its all based on supply and demand. You have something rare that everyone wants? Charge a lot. Have something common that no one wants? Charge a little. It all depends on how much someone is willing to pay.

You sell for how much people are willing to pay. Start high, then lower your prices.

I hate how everyone thinks in these games an item's price has to be set in stone. It's worth whatever people will pay for it.

BTW pyro if you find anyone that will sell a yak or fbss for 3k please send them to me...

Prices also differ from live with the knowledge of what will become shit in a month's time, and what will endure.

Also, it will differ with the knowledge of EVERYTHING being known, as opposed to it being felt out. For example, remember the BIBS? have not seen one here. You know when to skip a step here.

That being said, yeah you charge what people will pay. I just typed an additional explanation cuz I'm on a 3 hour break at work =D
