So...according to my calculations, you essentially made 17500e profit from a single dedicated Panda. Seventeen thousand five hundred ecto. Or 875 arms (current market). I don't pay any attention to the value of asian minis, but is a ded panda really worth even close to that?

On topic, uh...I bought a tormented str shield once for 15e and sold it about 90 seconds later for 24e.

I'm obviously not a power trader, but the time vs reward for that one was fairly decent.

That was one year ago, you can see the thread on oct 2009.
Panda was at 15-16ke, and armbs at 40e.

Now people is selling panda at 9-10ke and vizu's at 7ke... when I sold that the asian minis were more xpensive ^^

Cya!

I don't have any huge profits but here are a few of mine.

I'm working toward my wisdom title so I have been buying lots of gold unids. I got a Zodiac Staff to id in one trade. It turned out to have good mods, paid 700g for it sold it for 100K.

Another trade I had was a while back. Bought a r13 Obsidian Edge for 25e and resold for 70e when they were worth a bit still.

carnage-runner · Oct 04, 2010, 10:27 PM // 22:27

I have 3 funny ones. Bought a chaos axe r8 15^50 mid chest run in Fow While moving for 45k. Resold it after the run for 300k in cash. 3 trades with just good game honesty. Felt great. That was in 06. The good ol' days.

Other one.. I bought ecto and sold it. Bought 500e over a few days and sold it all for a markup of 2.5k per on average.

The last one was buying an unident r9 eternal shield for 2k and selling it later that week for 225k. It was +30 +10AL vs Fire. That one made me smile. Again.. 06'

So i was just chillin in Kammy with my el trapdoor tonic showing bout.... feb or march this year, when someone pmed if if it was an EL tonic and if it was for sale. told him it was and that it wasn't for sale. then i think i made a comment bout "if the price was right i would sell" or sumthin along those line. he said 1000e. i thought he was joking and i was like "naah, sry man". then he said 1250e. i said something like "well i guess i could part with it". knowing that i could easily buy another one for 45e(at the time was 45-50e), if not i lose nothing from open trading.... So i open traded my EL and he posted 5 stacks of ectos. he hit accept, so i hit except So fast! Amazing? of freakin course!
I know some, more like most all of you, would not believe this. but i really don't freakin care what u believe. haha. all i know is i have a set of obby on my rit, r3 zaisehn (which i should not have done, but i got a statue now

. and i used to have a ded zhed (lost now, due to some stuph i Don't even want to talk about :/. Along with miscellaneous weapons ive always wanted, until i sold a few things to get my zhed.... *sniff sniff

So by my calculations, that makes a 1205e profit.

Stoned Reaper · Oct 31, 2010, 01:33 AM // 01:33

I bought a wintergreen sword for about 30K today

Obey The Cat · Oct 31, 2010, 03:18 PM // 15:18

bought a non max +5 energy serpent axe for 500 gold on guru auction, sold for 500k. some years ago.

Red Fireball · Oct 31, 2010, 08:50 PM // 20:50

bought about 25 stacks rott-orr-emblems for 30g/emblem, next week nicholas collected them... (just been lucky, didn´t know ofc

), sold them for 100g/ea in average. was not the best profit, but I was happy nevertheless

another one was an inscr. 6/14 skull shield bought for 2k, sold right after for 70k :-)
bought a q8 -2wE +10vs demons shield for 50k, got offers up to 100k+60-70e, but refused, cause it was firm part of my collection... well maybe I´ll sell to be able to afford some nice stuff like other oldschool shields

Bought req7 Tactics Round Shield +45/-2 Stanced ~2 years ago for 100k, sold a week later for items worth 10x that. I also feel like an idiot because I could've traded it for:

Which would be worth a whole lot more than that today :xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Bright Star Shine · Nov 25, 2010, 01:26 PM // 13:26

Bought this

for 25e, sold it for 150e to Eternal Vizu couple hours later, who said it was for his collection, and he's trying to sell it on here somewhere

not that i care :P I had my nice profit :P

Sprites · Nov 25, 2010, 08:47 PM // 20:47

you are quite good powertraders

well , i bought a voltaic spear for 100k , was worth more at this time (maybe still is?) , i still have it

Bright Star Shine · Nov 26, 2010, 02:30 PM // 14:30

Well, I dunno bout the rest, but i wouldn't call myself a good powertrader... It's mostly about luck. You just need to see someone sell something, be lucky he sells it very cheap and be fast

cause there are more like you around there, looking

... You need to know prices of stuff for this though... It's not that you require any skill for it... Only thing you do need sometimes is money

you know the saying.. You need money to make money

this is aspecially true in this business :P

Midget Minionmaster · Nov 27, 2010, 08:51 PM // 20:51

Im not the best at prices but, when Bone Dragons were like 100k back then, I bought one for 16k and resold for 105k. Nice little profit there!

Oh, and a week ago, i bought a Everlasting Crate of Fireworks for 10k, resold for 70k. =)

max gladius · Nov 28, 2010, 12:18 AM // 00:18
