Selling Loot Rights ? e.g. Quillmane
Hey all,
I happened to be in South Karana yesterday when Quillmane went down and the Loot Rights got sold - 9K wow ! If I ever get lucky with Quillmane I'd probably just sell the cloak (can already levitate), but I'm curious how it works ? Do I take the coin, then invite buyer to group; or wait for loot timer? How ? Seems like it could go wrong ? Risk of ripoff ? What if greedy others hang around clicking ? | ||

With Quillmane being a short corpse there would likely be no time to take payment first. Payments often go either way with pay first or pay after with different situations
The GMs will discipline players that try to defraud players. Its #11 in the Play Nice Policy Very rare that anyone would risk their account over something like that

I don't think there are any official rules, but in general with this sort of thing the buyer pays upon delivery of the item, often with a separate EC Tunnel character afterward (though for something like Quill paying ahead of time isn't unheard of). You then "lock" the corpse by looting it yourself, wait for the timer to pass enough for them to be able to loot it, and then you stop looting (and let them know to loot) at that point.
You don't really have to worry about other people looting your Quillmane, or a buyer looting it and not paying you, because both those things would get the player in trouble with the staff. Of course, you want to get a very clear agreement of "X plat for cloak" ahead of time, and maybe screenshot it, but as long as you have that very few people would be stupid enough to loot the corpse without paying you.

Thanks guys [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
I'll keep an eye out - 10,000pp would be beyond my wildest dreams as a non-twink newbie. Actually the Play Nice is working well - I've had quite a few trading mistakes, and they have refunded my error. Only a couple of times my price ignorance was exploited. All in all, I am having a blast in P99, better than it was 24 years ago - (almost) everyone is an EQ expert, and filthy rich [You must be logged in to view images.

What server are you playing? I've definitely got 10k you can just have on blue. Nobody would sell me my epic pieces anyway, so I'm never going to use it.

I’ve played on P99 on and off for seven years. I’ve only seen fraud a couple of times. You can basically trust other players. But just take screenshots to cover your butt.
