That's a lovely sword. I'd kick it up a notch and say 200-225e

Edit: phew. Glad I dont have a spare 200e atm

agree with pleikki, I've seen the same sword for sale in kamadan with a b/o of 120e for over 2 weeks now, and apparently nobody has put 120e up for it.

bleh, lowball or not price depends on how long youre willing to spend selling it. if you wanna sell it same day sure 100e is a nice price. if you wanna spam this and ten other items like it in kama for the next 12 months. gogo 250 or 500e. sooner or later you'll find a sucker

Agree of the low ball comment - I would not take most of the price checks on here seriously. Always get lots of extra opinions.

.....but I haven't seen any of these go anywhere near 200e ... I'd be happy with 100e for that.





Edit: Agree on Argosoft being a stupid way of getting solid price checks. Could be easily manipulated- just like this forum could be and has been quite often through the years. I've already talked to several people in game that told me they were flat out lied to about prices so people could get deals. More than just "lowballing" going on.

yeah, sorry...there is no reason this should be 200e. just because a group of 4 or 5 people want req8 +5 swords doesn't mean everyone does...coast if you are willing to pay 200e+ for this sword then go right ahead..but no one else will

I wouldn't go by Argos Soft as if it were the bible, either. All it takes is a couple of people dedicated to spamming, "WTS blah blah for 30e", when it ordinarily sells for far more, to flood Argos and thus make people believe that this is the official new price for something.

Treat price checks like doctors opinions, get as many as you can before doing something drastic. Most of the traders buy things to trade, not to keep and when they buy it, they're already thinking about how much they can make off of it if they flip it.

I've seen this sword go from 85-175e and like was said above, you'll sell it within the top range of that if you're willing to spend a lot of time and find someone with more ecto than common sense, but it's likely going to go conservatively and closer to 130e.

90-100e imo

1.My reasoning is this plagueborn was one of the most common low req canthan skins.

2.Plagueborn skin isn't really in right now.

3.+5 energy sword collectors are few and far between most will already have this for their collection.

4.While people low ball like hell and argos is a price checker to be taken very lightly it does show some trend to demand.

5.The majority of the people who would actually buy this or could afford this on either extreme of the price spectrum seem to not be lining up around the block to buy it.

6.If you want to sell it now your going to get 90-100e. If you want to wait a few months and see if it becomes a more favorable skin you may get the 150-200e.
