In the GW Global Discord and the /r/GuildWars subreddit information to help price check/value items has been worked on and consolidated over time. I realised we don't really have anything like that here, so I'm copy and pasting the same information here to see if anyone has advice / comments then I plan to pin a thread in Price Check with a few key bits of information.
This is not intended to replace any Price Checks but maybe give people the tools and source of knowledge to help understand the GW economy a bit better.
I would like to get your opinion and contribution on this if you think there is anything to add/change.
Thank you.
