Everyone knows the people in LA and Forge that spam

"wts unid golds 7 for10k"

Well..is there a advantage into buying all of these? or jsut a big waste of money?

There is an advantage if you are after the wisdom title since it increases chances that an itemwont break down when you salvage a mod from it. May also help if you're relatively new to the game and are trying to unlock mods. excpet those two exceptions, it's a waste of money. Just be careful with unid prices because a lot of people tend to overprice them. 10K for 7 doesn't seem that bad though.

those golds have been tested for its mods. they probably have bad mods. thats why they are being sold as unid. Think about it... would you be willing to sell an unid gold that just dropped for you without ID-ing it to see whether it has a +30 health to it?

yes please do not buy those, if you do your getting ripped off, you can easily get unided gold for 1k each for your wisdom title

Anyone You see Selling Req 9 Gold weapons is scamming you, these weapons have been tested you can tell exactly what mod a weapon has on it as well as a shield.
you can tell within about 1% of what mod a weapon has and exactly what mod a shield has.

Not always, Ive gotten +30's and 20/20s off unidentified junk when I was building up my wisdom title... usually not the case... but theres a chance... its all a chance... so whatever... in the end, im down, but sure, every now and then I'd find a little something to boost my funds. Oh well, I got my title

Personally I buy a bunch...lvl 3 wisdom title...I usually only pay 1k or less for golds...IF you are planning on doing this...find some good sellers....there are a lot of chest runners that are after thier chest titles...and are always looking for someone to sell thier unids to...once you find 2-3 peeps that usually don't check thier mods for anything other than an HP mod...put them in your friends list and buy from them only...works for me...i have had several nice weapons bought as unid golds...granted its not a primary way of making money but it can offset the cost of gaining your title.

Buying unided golds is alright as long as you have the mentality that you aren't going really going to get anything worthwhile. If I bought one, I would go in thinking "ok, all I am going to get out of this is +1 to my wisdom title". On the other hand, if you want to buy golds so that you can get some good mods to salvage, then your in things for the wrong reason and more than likely, you will lose every time. Unided golds typically run around 1k or so, so 10k for 7 isn't too bad of a deal.
