hmm hard to say.... had many nice trades but i think this here was (one of) the best:
unded ghostly hero.... bought for 750e, sold for ~2300e

so it was ~1550e win in 1 day.... (it was like 18month - 2 years ago)

was a perfect gothic shield req9 str -5(20%) +30hp

I sorta regret selling it even though I made so much profit with it

Technically all of those are two trades... :P just had to put that out there.

For me, it was about 100e back when everlasting phantasmals were worth quite a bit. Picked it up for about 150-200e equivalent (bought with keys), and then sold it for about 300e, cant remember exactly.

Seems to have morphed into "what was the largest profit you made" - still cool

Got a R10 20/20 Fire staff back in the day (was a bit after the "fire wand" skin came out and ofc this was one of them) from a bot spammer for 40k in Droks. I miss those days.

Anyway, posted on here and it got up to 1.6 million. Would have gotten more if it was just a little sooner. With all the new changes people though it might affect the rarity of them. (was also right before the new 20% HSR all on most staves)

You're a noob trader Stuey

Bought an unidentified Bo-Staff for 1k in Droks back in early 2007. A req9 DF one, turned out to be 20/10 and sold for 70k to Nub Of Asgard or somebody, actually that was the first time I ever came across that annoying nub, who thinks he has a great collection, but scams of perfect req8 shields, and.... oh wait, I'm a bit joking here

unded shiro'ken, bought for 550e, sold for 2.2k (buhuu), other then that r7 +5e dadao, bought for 400e, not 100% sure what its worth now. First one is kinda lame cause I just bought it when they were worth 550e and sold when they were +- 2ke.. Same with the dadao tbh >, best 1 day trade I made was unded oni for 95e, sold for 350e >_>

When I still was in real GW bznz before hack and stuff:

Bought unded. Mini Beetle for 2100e - sold here: http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/m...64#post3243364


Bought an unded. Mini Panda in September 2008 for 4.4k or so and sold for around 5.8-6k, hard to say the exact price.... that's my biggest ones for absolute ecto profit I'd say.

well... way back... what shall I say. Actually I just posted here because I wanted to say: That Magmas was awesome Joe, I hate you for selling it

My best deal right now would be a Wintergreen Hammer which I bought for 20e, sold for 120e. Haven't been trading asian minis yet, my fortune still lacks a bit
