the only way i get my cash is through power trading.
1) some guy wuz selling random golds, got a voltaic spear q11 from him off for 5k

2) trading my mini destroyer for an armbrace, 1 day after the mini dest came out.

3) buying numerous gemstones (titan, margonite etc) for 1K ea from some dude

4) the best was a req8 gloom shield uninsc, -5/20% +30hp for only 20k.. and 20k because it was "dyed black"

When the Asura minipets first came out, I sold one to someone for 120 ecto. I didn't even have to bargain with him. That was his first offer.

Sometime in March I was vanquishing when someone shouted in AC that they're having a bank sale. I asked, "what items?". He then proceeded to list a pile of crap BUT there was an eternal blade mixed in there!

I mapped out of my vanquishing to his GH. Bought the req 11 eternal blade for 10k.

I swear. I would not take 3 mins of my life to make a lie on a forum for a broken game.

I was looking for a plain-old req.9 15^50 Hornbow a year or two ago. Someone PM's me and I trade with them.

He leaves with 7k. I leave with a then-400k+ Mursaat-skin Hornbow.

Back when Chaos Axes were valuable... Bought a r8 15% -10 Chaos for around 200k in game and sold it for 875k in auction. Dude originally wanted 100k and a couple of ectos for the axe, but 1 real or imaginary person bid it up 200k. Glad he didn't have more money to bid with.

That was how I went from poorish to joining the gw middle class.

The two best bargains I can recall would be:

Getting a perfect Tactics Zodiac Shield (20/20, 15^50, +30) and a mesmer green staff for free from a friend.

Buying 5 1st/2nd year mini pets(all undedicated) for 1k.
