Yellow Dye for 1,400 gold? Who Knew? - Guild Wars Forums

Bragg Madaxe · Aug 05, 2005, 01:46 PM // 13:46

Last night, the dye trader had yellow dye for 1,400 gold. I was floored.

Yellow dye is usually the one everyone dumps first and usually hovers (only a week ago in fact) around 130 gold.

But last night, I went to look at the price of red and blue (which were both down by the way) and yellow was 1,483 gold! I was selling it at 95 gold only last week. Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.

Why?

I was thinking about buying up all the yellow I could afford, to screw up the prices. I bet someone beat me to it.

Weird... I guess there must have been a sudden demand for brightly-coloured hippy characters. *Shrugs*

The demand for it is much higher. I assume it is because everyone is trying to make Gold and using a lot of yellow dye.

yup

i sold 5 minor runes yesterday (all different all found in less than 15 minutes) and the least i got was 200+

i could have sold black to trader for 11,000+ but i am not crazy for gold

and i am keeping my stash of major vigors for my own use

Yeah noticed that too. What is a minor rune of death magic usually-150 gold or so? Last night a necromancer rune that I found was going for almost 1500 gold. Geez!

Of course! Because two nights ago, I was trying to clean out all the runes I'd accumulated (minor and major necro and mesmer), and couldn't find any takers, so I sold them all to the rune trader for 25g each. I suppose I could have spammed the sale in the "All" channel, but I hate that, so I didn't.

Mavrik · Aug 05, 2005, 04:01 PM // 16:01

the selling price for yellow dye may have gone up but my yellow dye selling prince was only about 100g... I was hoping for around 500g at least then I would have sold it... oh well...

kleps · Aug 05, 2005, 04:17 PM // 16:17

you think that was nice?

rolls of velium were sellable in lots of 2200g last night. almost made 40plat of that before i got bored.
