So I know there must be some bazaar junkies out there.

Lend some tips of the trade !

What do YOU lookout for to buy on the low to resell to make profit ?

I have 2 accounts so I am able to set myself up with a trader and a barter.

Reselling. i make about 100k day doing this.

since the expanison, you can rip people off bad, the Gravelskin Helm bought for 3k sold for 10k , quick 7k , Zek helm always a good seller , buy for about 32-35k resell for 55k -75k , Fungi's right now good sell buy for about 60-65 sold mine for 90k , I dont really make good money i just make little profits like if i see Rad's selling for 25pp and next is 29 ill buy em sell for 28pp /shrug very little profit buy you know they will sell.

Another thing all the items right now are new so if you can get em for cheap 7-8k resell em quick for a small profit. like 15-20ish.

Last tip, Always haggle.. You can tell if people are taking you for a loop if you try to haggle them to 2k below what they are asking meaning they are doing the same thing you are. ;)
 
Watch for Grandmaster gear deals. With the flood of people rusing to get to lvl 75 via Nest missions, MDS are pretty cheap( 4-6k ) . As a result Grandmaster gear is made/sold for reasonable prices by some at times. Especially when they are trying to get skillups

I payed 7500pp for some Grandmaster arms, bracers,helms and resell for 20-25k. BP/Legs were had for 15-20k resell for 30-35k

Same with the symbol augs which are pretty easy top make as well.
 
NICE

:eek: wish i was on your server lol no one make gm ogre on povar just the fing augs
 
Checkout eqecon.com for actual bazaar trading prices. The data can be messed up by a very high or low offer, but in general it's good. There are plenty of statistic graphs to look at too.
 
gm ogre

if you can find it bp on povar 175 k
leg 150k
hands 100k
augs average 40 to 50 k
:mad:

You mean the wrists and boots? because there's a max sucess cap of ~65% for legs and BP (I forget the other ones but you can look it up on EQTC). Did you also forget to mention you had Smithing Mastery 3?

WOW, i'm transferring to your server! ours more like 27k per scale heh
 
Hm..

I suggest the casino. I know several people, myself also, who have made out with Gold Tickets. I win them at 100-300k, and sell for at least 450k, to 500k. Of course, you might take a hit of 100-200k once in a while, so if you can't invest, be warned. There are several macro's which speed this process tenfold. I have one available if you'd like one. Let me know how you do, if you decide to take this route. I've made about 1 mil so far in a week. Good luck.
