I have gotten in my possession, a weapon skin that was previously purchasble with BLtickets but is now no longer available. The supply of this weapon on the TP is extremely low. People have told me to have patience but I kinda wanna cash in on the gold sooner rather than later. Are there any tips/tricks you guys can recommend to sell expensive items like that faster? I’ve checked demand and there is quite a lot of orders however they are much lower priced than the very small supply on the TP. I’ve ofcourse undercut the supply but It’s been on for about 48 hours and hasn’t sold yet.

I got a few of those sclerite weapons. Quite honestly 0 have been sold in month. I’m not sure where it is heading.

You might be more lucky if you got one which is popular. Maybe wintersday or fuse.

As far as I see, none of the sclerite weapon have been sold. Just because it is discontinued don’t mean price will go up since no one is buying any.

I think weather or not the skin actually looks good maters here. People arn’t paying lots of gold just be a discontinued ugly skin.

The one I have has a good amount of buy orders still. So I’d say it’s still wanted. The price shot up immensly after the 18th when many of the older BLT ticket skins where removed for purchase. Is there any way to see selling history?

I dont’ know. you probably have to check everyday to see if any is sold. As I said the popularity of the item probably matters here.

I honestly dont’ believe in buy order that much unless the price is at least within reasonable range.

And you need to know Anet never says they wont’ bring the items back. The one they removed recently they only said, they wont’ be coming back “this year”.

I have quit a bunch of love struck weapons, and I’m worried it’ll make a come back next Valentine.

You also need to consider you might make more money if you sell faster.

Instead of waiting for a black lion skin to quadruple in price…. it might be faster to sell a black lion skin when it double in price, buy 2 more, and wait for the 2 skin to double the price again.

I’m not really in the business tbh. I got this skin from a friend who quit the game and logged in once for me to clear out his bank. Along with several other cheaper skins that have already sold. This one however is quite pricey. I think it’s quite a popular one as it looks amazing (imo). Right now the only thing I’m concerned with is unloading this item asap without having to resort to the buy orders. I undercut the previous lowest seller by about 10% in hopes of letting my item stand out.
