You're never going to get your hours' worth when selling a character. It's like a used car.
It's just the reality of the situation. Nobody is going to pay full price for everything you ever decided to do on your character. Nobody is going to pay full-money equivalent as if they had leveled and geared it themselves.
Levels, no drop equipment, and epics are non-salvageable. Unlike a fungi, you can't simply liquidate when you want to. Once those pieces are a part of your character, it's over and done with.
Example: Mage epic staff MQ is "going" (term used lightly) for 300k. Crown of Elemental Mastery is what? Another 50? I doubt you could sell a 60 epic Mage with full planar for 350k. Which means if you break it down to its parts, you're getting 0 plat for the fact that the Mage is level 60 and full planar. Never mind JBoots, peg cloak, Seb key, HS key, and any droppables.
It's not efficient to combine all of your assets into one massive, inseparable no drop package. If you decide to do that and then want to sell your account, you should expect about 50 cents on the dollar.
