How is a rubi bp worth 30k? LOL...it's 3 hps/tick. You got proof one sold for 30k? It cant be worth more than 5-10k. It will even drop in price soon as Kunark approaches as it is being camped 24/7. A rubicite helm/arms will outsell a bp, trust me. Bp may be the most common piece of rubi on the server now.

Because the camp can be as bad as Manastone depending on your luck, and I had just camped a stone and didn't want to wait in a 5-6 person BP line. Paid 13k+17k in jewelry, worth every penny.

[Karanis]

Pretty much none are being sold, Darksea Harpoons and Golden Efreeti Boots are going for 5-10, you think a BP is only worth that much, and a /list item at that?

Darkseas are going for like 2-3k, and GEBs is not on farm status yet (farmed for resell). GEBs being worth that much is fine. Rubicite was worth 10-20k on blue and it wasnt even being farmed 24/7. In 2013 you could buy an entire set of rubicite for 50k plat. This was well after it was removed.

[Muehler]

i know for a fact 1 sold for 30k , and who bought it, if you haven't done the camp youre just trolling and id take a reasonable offer. get 1 and sell yours for less skorge

[Karanis]

Good luck with that.

most of them being farmed are being done for perceived future value. As an item, 3hp/tick is pretty shitty even in classic except for shamans. The fact its actual worth is maybe 5k tops doesn't matter when everybody thinks they'll be sitting on 100k+ in a year. Problem is, this time around I think theres too many people with that mindset. and the market will be saturated for a long long time.

He’s correct honestly. I was considering subjecting myself to the rubi bp camp but I just don’t see how it could possibly be worth more than what it was on blue when there will be a shit ton more in circulation than blue ever had. Sooner or later people will realize these aren’t the golden treasures we thought they would be.

It's only worth 30k because people on this server have no clue about how to gear toons in EQ and also have no idea how economies, virtual and otherwise, work. Pricing for items is all over the place, okay items are thousands and excellent items are hundreds.

The fact of the matter is that it is farmed 24/7 and is becoming increasingly more common by the day. People spend the same amount of time at the EZ Garanel Rucksif camp while griefing nubs getting XP only to make 2k plat cause boots don't drop too often. They think because Rubi BP /list it's incredibly valuable and they are holding onto them until people pay the money they think they're worth.

What they don't understand is the value of platinum decreases over time AND this item is in high supply. By the time it stops being dropped there will be hundreds. This item is worthless for tanks especially when Mithril costs 1k. They’re holding out for "more money" but they will ultimately sell for LESS money than they would now and the plat itself will also be worth less. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.

[Erati]

actually these will keep good value as Fungi king is really far away and wont be as overfarmed like blue

rofl at all these Rubi BP is worthless thats over the top, it represents the only classic worn regen and its 1 of 3 worn regen items in Kunark.

Free bump - yall are cray

[Muehler]

the critics dont have one and havent camped it and have no business trolling the thread, buy or sell or shut up ) still havent heard what theirs is selling for?

[Tuljin]

Nobody is trolling and I don't really think anyone is saying they're worthless, but they aren't worth 50k plat in today's money. Don't forget the people who farmed them and actually don't want to sell and are using them.

The #1 indicator of what they're worth is what people are willing to pay. Obviously OP who is sitting on over 100k is going to ultimately pay what he thinks it's worth, and obviously he doesn't think it's worth 35k. Because it's not.

Manastone is similar where yes it's really good but at the same time I am amazed at how many people don't know it only works in old world zones. Even some veterans ive run into who came back after a while. The fat cats are trying to keep that little tidbit of info on the hush though. If this were common knowledge (it should be) the perceived value instantly plummets.

If Rubi BP sells for 35k when Kunark drops that won't be anywhere near the value of 35k today's money. It certainly won't sell for MORE than it will today. It's worn regen that a monk can't wear. People who actually need plate have better options, especially seeing how few seem to solo and everyone constantly cranks full groups all day at hotspot camps.

It's a good opportunity to address the ludicrous and largely arbitrary item valuation on Green and people have started a discussion. OP can buy whatever he wants and he will pay what he thinks it's worth. Those holding onto these items are foolish to think that they will be with MORE in the future and they should take their 25-35k offers today. This amount one year from now will have nowhere near today's buying power.

The tunnel rat Mr. EQ cool hotshot attitude is complete bullshit and it's a very tired act. Items are only worth what people pay, period. Every day that goes by more are farmed and plat is worth less, period. Good luck to OP, he'll get a good deal.

because thread is full of wankers

[Dildy]

Bump, still lookin to buy these

[ccs88]

STFU about these items being overpriced. You can go 24h-48h without getting one. You literally have to put your RL on hold to get these things. They get removed from the game as you know. They will always be worth a lot. We’re already almost 4 months in and only a couple of each have sold. Tons of players have millions of plat by the time Kunark is out, and 30k, 50k, 100k is chump change.

I don't think hardly anyone is going to have a million let alone millions by kunark because the economy is pretty stagant on green. Doesn't matter how much stuff you have if no one is buying it.
