Traded one of my beads to get Soul leech MQ and finished mah epic(no regrets) at lvl 57..the dream [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] . Still got the other pair of holgresh beads to this day.
Stories like this make me mad I didn't have the foresight to log in for 20 mins and move money into beads -- I assumed I'd never log back into EQ again =)

That said, I still have a hard time understanding why these things sell for nearly as much as a manastone.

Never been rich in this game. At one point I managed to win 2 hiero cloaks in 2 days in seb crypt, back when they were worth about 60k. I used one and I gave the second one to a friend. To this day he never paid me back for it like he said he would. Craby, if you still play, you owe me 60k [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.].

I did also buy an account at one point that I planned to level as an alt then flip -- then account selling got banned. Now I have a random 35 warrior account forever that I will never actually do anything with.

I made my starter money by leveling a magician to 50 in 2009/2010, then selling it for plat (which was legal at the time). I think I got 150k, and periodically would flip items for 5 years til I quit to stay flush.

To make a lot of money on p99 blue you don't need to start in 2009 or devote your life to EQ.

You just need some basic computer skills to parse EC tunnel logs.

You're welcome.

This except hoops are still around 10-13k

I've been farming HS for way too long now and fingerbone hoops are the best seller by far. Necklace of Superiority sells well enough for around 10k. Helot skull helms are seemingly hard to move despite being a totally awesome and useful item. Runed morning star sells horribly , bout to lower my price to 1k since I have like 10 now. Sash of the dragonborn dropped in value a lot recently. ES boots sell for 1.5 to 2k regularly. Addy clubs are something I don't come across often because farming west and north isn't something I do anymore since people xp in those wings, but I imagine most monks want the club so it will move for sure.

Hs isn't quite the plat pinata it used to be but it's my favorite zone in the game so I'm Gunna spend most of my time there regardless besides maybe a chottal snipe or something. Crazy how often you can catch him sitting up tbh

Server is so top heavy that only the best of the best items sell well.

Everything else is basically half the value it was two years ago.

Exactly. That's a good thing though. Nobody needs to be a millionaire to get decked out in good gear.

Yep that was the key. Fastest way to make plat at the time.

It was at this point I decided to no longer be kind to the casuals as they have extreme short term memory. They did this to themselves, unfortunately.
