Q:

Hi all. I need advice from someone relitively savvy in the BLTC and, since I haven’t been able to find that someone, I’ve come here.

My Q basically is what to sell the more expensive items for? I have a few exotics worth 2-4 gold (some are 2g some are 3g some are 4g) as the lowest asking fee out there indicates. However they run all the way up into 10+ gold in set selling price as well. So am I dipping out selling at 2g? Will it never sell for 10g? What about 5g? Anyway I’m sure many would like to know how to sell their exotics at top dolla ^^

Sort of related – I have a scepter with a sigil of bloodlust and the sigil is selling for more than the scepter (even the exact scepter and sigil). Should i black lion salvage it and sell the the sigil rather? Maybe even keep it… stacking power on deaths with an AOE character sounds tasty.

Thanks in advance for your professional input

They will never sell for 10g, no.

If you see an item with the follow SELL offers…
4g
4g
5g
5g
6g
6g
7g
10g
10g
20g

And withthe following BUY orders…
1g
1g
1g
2g
2g
2g
3g
3g
3g
3g
3g

… then you can be pretty sure that this item will never sell for 10g.

What I do in cases like this, is put it up for 3.9g and hope for the best!

If that doesn’t sell, then I take it off and sell for 3g.

thanks for the response. TBH so far I’ve sold all items so far (50s-1.2g) for the lowest sell offer already there. Never heard about undercutting till recently. And they’ve always sold. Sometimes it just takes a few days. So by my reasoning i can offer a more average price…. only if im wrong the listing fee becomes a pain

That also sounds a bit odd, especially if it’s listed say 12 times at different prices.
I sold the items yesterday undercut 2c from the LOWEST SELLER. It sold instantly. As in under 5 min. Now i feel like I lost out and should of put it up for more. Odd there’s no help on this topic. Either nobody wants to share, or everybody is indignant.

You have to know the prices of the Items, watch the TP prices for some days and you might get more. 3 Days ago ive bought 15 Sigills for 50 Silver each, Today ive sold em for 97 Silver each, usually they sell for about 1 Gold, i know that because i play the TP a lot.
