Default Best place for trading/buying green items?

I would expect: Dreldomor war camp. But hardly anyone is trading there. What market place is the best?

Deldrimor War Camp district 1 usually is the best place, although I always see a few people trying to rip others off. In other towns, LA included, usually there are people trying to sell "godly Gorrel's Staff 30k!" or whatever.

Addition: a lot of people are trying to rip you off even at the War Camp. But really, since it is close to the source of green weapons, it's still the best place to get them. LA d1 is a close second. I wouldn't bother going anywhere else.

I've seen the majority selling in LA. Some in Ascalon, Augury and deldrimor.

LA has always been the trade capital of Tyria, especially when dealing with top grade stuff.

I swear, Arena Net really needs to create a market system...

Anyhoo, War Camp is a very good place to trade your items, but buying them would be a money hole.

LA is full of ppl saying "WTS GODLY GREEEEN"

Warcamp District 1 is the best, at least some people there know how much their green is worth.

You could also try DF, i find that there are less rip-off sellers there than in LA. But warcamp is by far the best place.

Well, it depends. I find that people in the warcamp often want $$$$$ for their greens. I've got some great deals in Lion's Arch, so I think both places are worth visiting. But certainly it's better to sell in LA, as there are more people there who don't know what greens are really worth.

So...you're saying it's better to not give a fair price?

I switch back and forth between War Camp d1 and LA d1 because War Camp is where most people looking for greens are, while LA still is a strong marketplace.

War Camp is nice because a lot of people there are knowledgeable about greens, how common/uncommon they are, and the going price. However, there are also people there attempting to get your greens cheaply. If not d1, then warp to any moderately populated district. Chances are people there are still trying to buy or sell greens.

Lion's Arch is still a good marketplace for anything, but attempting to get your message in still requires a lot of spamming.

I'd pick the above two over Droknar's, as I constantly see people trying to unload the more common staves there as "godly green - only 30k!!!!!" After a few nicely-put comments in the Local channel, they dropped prices to 10k. The number of ridiculous prices I saw today in Droknar's d1 does not reassure me at all.

No, I think what they meant was, that the people who usually sell at the high price are people who have gotten it at that price many times before and no longer try to sell lower, and continue to sell at the high price even if you can get it someplace else for cheaper.

This is why, if nothing else, a market watch would be nice. Some way of knowing what prices people are selling at, in an average.
