I'd say 25-30p average for regular joe, 50-75 for a complicated port.
Nobodies and corpse runs usually go for free by our nice ports men and women, cause we all know the feeling.

I never set a price or expect anything when I am porting. If someone in rags offers me 5p or something ill just deny it and usually give some or a piece of a gear if I have something on me for them..

We are a community, in a video game..if there was ever an example of you cannot take it with you when you leave..this is it.

The members of Dial A Port follow are certain set of guidelines, setting prices or expecting massive payment for ports is not one of them. That is on the individual, try not to judge the bushel by one bad apple if you run into one.

On the same token, be fair...if you can help your druid out who took time away from what they were doing otherwise to save you some time, do it.

Just be cordial, enjoy the game together..and for the love of tunare can these posts stop! ...lol

30p for an average port
50p if i ask someone to port to me at a spire/ring
75p for an evac

The above are what I give and what I usually receive. Always appreciate the guys who tip more though, feelsgoodman.

20-30 plat seems the average, but also depends on what zone you're in. People tend to donate more in OT (Since they hammer in and are 50+) than say in NK, where you have new players.

Before I started a porting class, I paid 40pp for every port. It seemed like a fair price for saving me hours of time.

I agree on 40 plat that's always been the standard amount I've paid.

10-15pp one way, 20-40pp for round trips, 50+pp for special cases.
One way is you are already in zone or at a druid ring with druids in zone or at the ring.
Round trip is if you need to go to a couple locations or if you need to be picked up at a ring and taken somewhere else.

Don't let the druids fool you. They make a killing. druid is the most played class on the server. If you have a bad experience with one. never use them again and replace them with another one, Easy.
Also wizards are dope.

If you are 35+ and tip 10pp for a port to DL from WC, that's a cruddy move. I just saved you hours of travel and that's worth 10 plat to you? yikes

I use my friends list to remember the no tipping population - to include those chanters who think clarity is a tip. If you're on that list, you never get another port. 10-15p is fine. 50p makes me happy and extremely accomodative.
