Yes that's definitely part of it.

But 1-2k is pretty reasonable for just using your own OT hammer for 1-2 to proc and get 10 feet from the turnin mob...

Since the OT hammer price was stable at 5k for years before dropping to 3k, I'm going to say that this is mostly wishful thinking.

Also, I don't even bother to sell them any more, even when people ask.

Naw not true, I was in a guild that's disbanded that was doing them for 2k a couple of years back. If you paid the "tourist" price, then lol.

also to everyone saying you need to do it 65 times to "break even"... you realize you still have the strings after that you can resell for essentially the same price you bought them for.

Its pure profit. In the height of the population I would sell 10 of these a day, my necro would be perma parked in OT. hammer thread is legendary

100% true. I'd sit back and applaud how many suckers that lined up to get a hammer.

Was a kick ass pally from Divinity that let me use his puppet strings for free!

It's pure profit that costs 300-500K to make money off of.

'It takes money to make money'

Each transaction is netting you 1%-2% return on your initial investment.

It's all about scale of risk / asset allocation. It is a slow-growth strategy that requires significant capital to get started.

You also risk depreciation of your asset, just the same way machinery is written off for depreciation costs.

Relinquishing the strings also negates your income source. People are paying for you to have your money non-liquid in items that generate money in a single way.

I'm not saying it's not a good strategy, and that the margins aren't great. I'm just saying that it makes a lot of sense. I'd wager that if strings charges sold for 500pp, the cost of the string would go down, significantly.

Norden, where have you been? Did you quit?
