Guild Wars 2

Why can’t I sell this for the 1s.29c in the BLTP? I would make 9c profit @ 1s19c compared to selling it to the vendor for 1s10c after listing & exchange fees and or waiting on the other 239 to sell @ 1s30c for weeks on end?

you pay 15% fees and taxes, so at 1.29s you would receive 1.0965s, so its better to sell it to vendor.

Even though 1.29s would result in the same “profit” as 1.30s (due to the posting fee being only 6c vs 7c due to rounding) a simple multiply by 85% as Wanze pointed out puts it below the 1.10s vendor value or 1.10s divided by 85% yields 1.294s which ceilings to 1.30s as the minimum sell value.

As it is, if you look at your “profit”, it’s the same value as simply selling it to a NPC vendor for 1.10s each, no fees, straight into your wallet with no waiting at all.

Ok, thanks guys….I did end up selling it to the vendor. Didn’t feel like waiting for weeks on end for it to sell in the BLTP.
