Reiker you're talking about a specific example in the case of the batskull earring. I see them go for 250 fairly often. Also I see oracle robes out the friggin ass. 300-400p. I've been in EC the last 10 days buying monk shit and those robes are everywhere.
On the whole I see prices dropping. SMR, Mith 2h, Yak, FBSS etc are all a lot cheaper than when I started in January. The people who sell over priced shit are the people who sell it for weeks on end. I regularly see people in EC for a week selling the same shit. Just because a price is advertised at a certain level does not mean that is what it sells for.
It seems like Ziggey has been trying to sell red sash of order and purple headband for 5k for over a month now. I waited patiently and got them both for 800p. This isn't like the bazaar or the auction house where everyone lowballs shit because they want their money liquidated. Buying and selling here requires time and a concerted effort. If you want to move shit quickly low ball it. If you want to buy shit quickly high ball it. If you want your moneys worth expect to spend at least several days in EC.
A lot of people sell shit not knowing what its worth. A lot of people buy shit not know what its worth myself included. The other day I bought a serp bracer for 150p not knowing the item is not worth nearly that. They regularly go for 50p but I was out of the loop on melee gear. My own fault. EC is like anything else in terms of getting gear in this game. Gotta camp it.
