because I could vendor it for more.

Unfortunately there is 0 turn around for alchemy, my highest vendor sales have been no more than 3pp per potion. including the port pots.

Honestly I thought these were more of a server need than a profit as I didn't see any for sale.

Its hard to sell potions. People dont understand thier worth. The ONLY thing that came out of Bazaar was it made it 100x easier to sell potions. But we'll never have to worry about Bazaar so itll alway suck =/

Someone actually approached me back in December or something about forming a union amongst Shaman Alchemists. He wanted us all to convene and decide on some standardized prices for the more popular potions so that we weren't undercutting each other and screwing ourselves. I thought this was a ridiculous idea - if people want to sell shit cheap, I say let em - but I can understand his concern. I was never in it for the money (I've never had much luck selling potions, even the cool ones before anyone else could make them) and when I realized I couldn't get the Journeyman tag (which you can't get any more anyways!) I stopped dumping all my pp into alchemy. Now I'm glad I did as many of the potions have turned out to be extremely useful.

Well maybe the time has come. Perhaps we should unionize and increase prices to a "fair" level!

Jeremy, hit me up anytime for a unionization for potion prices. Not that i see a lot of undercutting i just see a lack of need on the servers half. Whos going to pay nearly 300pp for a port to inno when they can donate to a druid for a port to sro/feer for whatever.

But there are a lot of potions that can't be matched, 40hp regen per tick! 25pt stat increase that stacks with Every buff, this nearly caps my halfling war friend on sta, the ds the ivu...there are SO MANY pots that could help damn near everyone but they don't want to spend the money.

The mats are just a little to expensive in the first place to make it. I mean really the classes that could benefit most from these potions couldnt afford them in the first place
