Default r8 Bows. I'm after some advice

Greetings Gurus.

I recently acquired these r8 bows in Kamadan. Bows have never been my thing, so I'm not sure of their potential. I know that a few of these are very valuable indeed though, so I'm looking for constructive opinions on their value please:





Thanks,

Max

EDIT:
I have contacted Todes already, and will await his response before I do anything, because that is the right thing to do.

First of all, i'm not a bow guy so these are just broad estimates in which I think they should fit into.
Some of them may be accurate, and in OP views some might be off, so feel free to correct me so I can take a lesson from it aswell.

tbh Coffee is the man to go for, for these sticks with strings.

(Estimate on market, skin, demand, price history.)

1: 750-1500e.
2: 200-350e
3: 100-200e
4: 150-250e
5: 75-175e
6: 50-75e
7: 25-50e
8: 40-75e
9: 250-750e
10: 50-75e
11: 75-175e
12: 75-125e
13: 40-75e
14: 50-150e
15: 40-75e
16: 40-75e
17: 25-50e


Hope it helps out.

Stuey n Ek SHUNNNNNNNNNNNNN
The ones im going to point out are where id say Zeph is a little wrong but a lot i would agree with

Bramble, id say 1000-1500e
I know on #2 Dealer had one and i think he R/b at 750e and no one seemed to be interested so its kinda tough imo to put a price on it. Id really only pay what Zeph said.
# i think zeph is way to high, you can get a q8 15^50 for 50-80 so i mean id consider it in the same ball park as the 15^50, talk to woo post in on his thread and see what he will give for it.
the Shortbow, i sold a q8 15^stance for 40e, i can really only see this one going 20-25e

the rest i would agree on with zeph maybe aim for the middle ranges dont try for too high or to low

There now I have a valid post ^.^ Hit me up ingame and I'll help you PC them somewhat (although I'm a bit off the market I guess on some items). Atleast i can give you a general idea of what I consider them to be worth.

Been away for a while, but I have a hard time believing that the bramble wouldn't fetch more than people are saying here. I wouldn't sell for less than 2ke. 7 stacks if I'm itching to buy something else with the cash.

On the other hand, I have just as hard a time believing that a req 8 15^50 zodiac would be worth anything like 750e. That smells like some shenanigans to me...not that I wouldn't be happy to see Max get that much out of it.

Like I said, been away for a long time, so take this PC for what it's worth...which is probably significantly less than any of the bows in this thread.

I know squat about bows but I know I paid 500e for a Q8 +5e Zodiac Bow from a friend 'bout two weeks ago. So I agree that a Q8 15^50 version would not be worth more, but like I said earlier I know squat about bows & bow pricing.

Thankyou everybody for your help with these. Does anybody have any more thoughts?

I have contacted Todes, and he has confirmed that these are his old bows that were hacked a while ago. I offered to return them, but as he has quit playing, and because these bows don't hold any particular sentimental value to him, he has give me permission to do as I wish with them.

Therefore, I have decided (with Todes' blessing) that I will use the proceeds from the sale of these bows to fund future items for my own collections.

Thankyou Todes. You are one of the greats.

So, these will be listed for sale in the near future. If anybody needs me to delay the sale in order to raise funds, please let me know. Otherwise, most of these will be listed for sale.

Max
