Im so sick of people whining and complaining about the price of green items. First of all I have never seen one of these for sale anywhere not IG or out. Secondly, each boss drops a number of different items and some of them dont drop anything at all.

If you figure it takes about two to three hours to get into and clear the furnace, with the odds of a PARTICULAR item droping FOR YOU (the one you want), your odds are VERY LOW and you have to GO INSIDE AGAIN. This process could take you days. Now, figure that you farm for your gold. It takes approximately 15 minutes to make 2k if you are lucky with the drops. Thats 8k an hour, so lets round it up to 10k an hour just to be nice about it. I sold this shield for 55k so the person who bought it would have to farm for 5-6 hours to raise that money, maybe less if they got real lucky. It took me 3-4 hours to clear out the furnace for this drop. 55k is a bargain for this item, which drops with rarity and is inside the furnace not outside.

I am of the opinion that people who complain and yell and hollar and laugh that people want more than 50k for a green is that they a) dont farm themselves and just want to buy them on the cheap or b)buy gold off ebay or c)are simply morons.

Id like to see your list of greens you are selling for 10k each, I will probably buy some.

I have to agree a little here. I bought a Brohn's Holy Rod, a Willcrusher, and a few other highly prized Greens for about 15K, but I consider myself very fortunate to have acquired them. Most of us thought greens would be everywhere, and the greens that fall in the footprint itself are. Tons of people have yakslappers and things like that, and less popular greens rarely sell for more than 2 or 3K, but some of the more popular ones like the willcrusher, Brohns, the razorstone, Malinon's Shield, and the vampiric sword sell for quite a lot even now, long after the update was released. Admittedly, there were a number of tweaks and changes to the drop rates to prevent a total flood of these items, and rates could change again, but I do agree that popular items inside the furnace are worth what they sell for sometimes. I would be willing to pay well for one if I needed it.
