I hear you, but what happens when your co-jeweler friends try to sell their PFWRings for 275pp or 300pp each? Are we are expected to just fuck off because if that is your position you need to take a step back from this game. Or do we offer them 250pp which I agree is absolutely a reasonable price? You must admit that there are two sides to this and many sellers are just as delusional as are many prospective buyers.

Many of you are taking offense because you have met some dipshit people who do nothing but send lowball tells to people for way below a fair price. Other dipships buy items at a fair price and try to flip them for some bullshit markup.

I am here to discuss those fucknuts, not you and others who do as you do.

To this I say - I have been selling the JC items at the exact same price point for several years. If you are paying 275pp, 300pp, it is because you are not aware of the market. Consumers keep the market in check.

For what it's worth, I don't think 275pp or 300pp is 'out of the ballpark' for what the rings actually do for a character and their cost of acquisition.

Platinum Ruby Veils (7 str /wis) sell for 350pp alllll day long and cost me 252pp on average and I make 98pp in profit. Platinum sapphire necks (7 str / int) cost me 219pp to make and I sell them for 300pp to make a 81pp profit.

PFWR cost me 162pp and I sell them for 250pp, making me 88pp in profit. It's also way more hassle to get you a 55hp/5ac ring considering PRV/PSN are completely storebought.

I wish common sense ruled the market, but alas it does not.
