Filled my Hom with Tormented weapons when braces were 50e each... They then sharply dropped off to about 30e in the next 2 weeks.. then settled at around 20-25e... To say I was annoyed would be accurate. I didn't care too much but.. still. It was a fair bit of ecto.

To be fair I bought it when ectos were 3.5-4k, so maybe it evens out if you ignore the fact that I would have a lot more money if I had kept the ectos.

El cottontail are worth <20e now
I'd say the worst trade i ever made is when i bought 4stacks of SPECIAL PRESENTS for 100k (they share skin with wintersday gifts and it was quite a bargain to get 4 stacks for 100k) unfortunately i was too greedy to even check for traps (didn't know there were any) and clicked accept :-(
it was more of a scam than a trade but still...

Probably a couple of days ago, got excited as all noob poweertrader and bought a EL 6th year white Tonic for 35ish ectos.

When relogged the day after, the prices was already dropping dramatically.
I've been "lucky" tought cause i've found someone even more noob than me, who bought for 28e....lost 7e instead of 20 at least.

I dedicated an unded zhed, shiroken, oni, yeti, naga, grawl and a few more, a bit after HoM appeared. I though i could take them with me to gw2 QQ

sold an EL phantasmal tonic for 100k when the Zaishen title had only just come into place. Found out afew months later when I actually understood what an ecto was, that I could of sold it for 250e+ Got it by using just 1 Zaishen key also. Haha, Pwnt.

Merched a dual-mod echo with a +10 vs demons mod on it (I think the other was +44/enchanted, but I'm not sure). Had no idea what it was worth, just started checking guru a few months later and it stuck in my mind. Got it sometime either during my canthan vanquisher or while getting kurzick faction. I just saw it was a shield that wouldn't work well on a hero. Would've been set had I known.

Implying it being max is actually even possible. Which isn't the case.

It used to be possible...

True, but seeing how an Icy Blade Axe is a Nightfall skin, and also seeing how after NF release, Anet nerfed q8 max weapons -except swords- it's impossible.

Coast · May 04, 2011, 05:06 PM // 17:06

nowadays yes, but there was a small period when it could have been possible

False. Unless you prove it with a screeny.

thats like saying it was impossible to get a req8 +5energy crystalline and that was obviously also possible, even tho there never was ever a screeny or person who had one that we know of.(it still was possible)

For like, 6 days... Yes it was possible, but as far as I know (this is about the time Yawgmoth should jump in) drop tables were changed WITH NF release. Except for staffs, which was after the preview event, which caused some funky staffs to drop that were pre-nerf, yet post-nerf at the same time...

Bubba The Legendary · May 04, 2011, 09:10 PM // 21:10

Sold 5 armbraces 10e each 10 or so months ago
