q8 Celes Sword: 5-20e or w/e collector offers, IMO
- Only 1 buyer who seems to actively buy non-perfect q8's- swords still drop max and 15-21 would be next best thing. the 14-20 may be a lot less attractive bc of this.
- I'd double check with others opinions- maybe the +5 makes it an exception, though I wouldn't think so.
q8 SWS inscrip - 5a seems to be the going price.
q8 Eternal Bow 15%stance: 25-30a+ (I think last sold for R/B of 30a)

As title says, wondering what this OS would be worth:
Shield of the Wing q11tac +30hp +10arm(skeles)
Thank you,
Shaggy

So... a random guy who logged on for the first time in 4years, decided to give a ton of mini pets away today in Kamadan. Seeing that he was in the same guild as collector friend, I asked if he happened to have any q7 or q8's for sale. Although most of his collection was customized, he happened to have a few nice pieces that made it my way. Tried paying him for them, but he refused to take any of my armbraces. Ended up seeing some nice collection pieces that he had customized, as well as getting a new q8 Dual modded Skull shield and purple crystalline to add to my collection :D, among a few others/random.
(Shout out to this dude for adding to my q8 collection :D)

Oui je parle francias. Though definitely would have to rely on google/textbook for non elementary conversation tbh.
I don't understand how you keep bringing up bots...I literally only brought up that to counter your real money topic. Even if French is your primary, you must only be decent at writing English and not too good at fully understanding what you're saying in English, if you're so confused as to why I even brought up bots to counter your statement.
Why the hell would a real money valued item, make you so much more irritated at this so called scam, as you typed in English? The only logical flow that it sounds like you're taking it, from reading it in English, is that you're more upset about this trade because the seller had an item worth trading for real cash. Which, if that's the only reason, then bots is a relevant topic. Otherwise, thats kind of a stupid thing to bring up, as that has nothing to do in the matter of determining if this is a scam or not. Nothing was falsely promised on the sellers end. If we want to play wordplay, 1750e could fill a HoM for sure as well, as PvE titles weren't discussed as to whether or not they'd be bought in this trade. 1750e is enough to buy hero armors, personal gear, cheap weps, and cheap minis. So that wasn't even fraudulent on the buyers part...Else, why did you even bring this up? Are you trying to argue that just because this item is a unicorn(1 of a kind) that it makes it more of a scam than if it wasn't?
Shit, type in French if needed and I can translate if you're more fluent in it.

The only point this thread has come to, is that your butt hurt over a sale that you weren't even involved in, and that you're not too good at debates.

things such as kanaxai or pandas... some guys pref to involve real $ . So when you got such item , it’s potential real money you can get selling it. This is the precise reason I reacted hard for that case.
Do you forget what you type? You brought real money into this debate... xD lol. So, I brought up how bots dominate PvP/real money market to shutdown this argument you have. If you're arguing he could have sold this q8 crystal for some serious bucks, he should just invest into bots and "make all of that cash back plus surplus, before Anet banned his ass". End of story = Seller was a dumb ass, and buyer is debatable dick.
You're just a troll if you continue this. You're not even sticking with what you say, it sounds like.
Also, there's no mention of "Max" anywhere in this forum, with a quick search and find. Idk what the hell you're smoking, or if reading is another issue. If referring to the OS, reread if you're curious to understand what was being said. I believe it was something pretty close to "at least now he's aware of this forum for future OS trades" or "a scam would have been if he asked for a PC on this forum, and well known collectors told him 1,750 ecto." Either case, refer back to the "reading seems to be another issue", as obviously he wasn't aware of this forum....the idiot took the words coming from some random person he met in Kamadan Dis 1 as "Gods Word" and sold him the crystal for what the buyer told him it was worth. This is more funny than scam- Cause you don't even have to play games to have the common sense to not do such a stupid thing. Would you sell stock you've invested in years back w/o checking what it goes for, just because some random buyer told you he'd buy it for a certain %' a share? No, because the internet is a real thing, and research is needed to be done before selling your shares. Perhaps Cryptocurrency would be a more logical "stock" as it's easier to sell to individual's than stock- but w/o trying to be too technical to try to defend/argue this sale that has already past...the analogy is still the same meaning... do your homework.

Touche with the pawn shop examples, but cmon... a random person in kamadan is not a "certified professional price checker". This was nothing but a bad sale and a dick move w/ a huge payout for the buyer, as said in previous post. Applications where anybody is able to sell something is a better example like "offer up, letgo" since this OS seller only posted in an public trade room, such as Kamadan district 1. You're able to list whatever Price you see fit on those apps, or you could also list "offer" on items for sale, and negotiate prices with the seller in PM's. You're nothing but an idiot if you're just going to take advice on a item you're selling, only from the interested buyer negotiating the buyout price, in this scenario. This wasn't a gathered event with promised price checkers...you're asking some random person whos interested in buying the item, when you have no idea what the market is like.
A scam would be if the seller actually posted this item on this site for a PC, and some of the top known price checkers said it was worth only 1,750ecto, so they could buy it for that or a little less. Why are we going to such great lengths to defend/argue stupidity?

Refer to Anet's rules of conduct, if this is going to shift to real money reasoning, by stating Panda's, Kanaxai, or q8 OS Crystallines could have been sold for >$xxx amounts of cash in RL. He's much better off getting xx-xxx accounts- like most of the people who dominate and control that type of market in all games do- if we're going to bring up the topic of real money. Even with daily limits, xx-xxx account bots can generate insane amounts of Zkeys which can be easily converted to other currency for their site to sell for Real Money. Not to mention the one's in "top ranked" guilds who are "active" in GvG to farm reward points to sell guilds. This crystalline can't even come close to what that many accounts can bring you- thus no point in bringing up "he could have sold it for cash!"
At the end of the day, the seller messed up big time, but life moves on. It was nothing but idiotic to sell such a beautiful collectors item as soon as he first(?) logged on after years of not playing, with only asking the potential buyer what it was worth? In real life, those are the perfect customers to sell something to. Refer to buying a car....Person A doesn't know how to haggle and asks what its worth, so the dealer gives him a price. Person B spends the day haggling between shops to get 25% discount off price Person A bought for... life lessons.
At least he's aware of this site, and the plenty of collectors who give accurate price checks now, if he has other gems to sell. As Yuko stated, "Lets see if this stops anybody from bidding."
Also, for this to be "100% fraudulent", in real life, good luck making a case when you're the person doing the selling. Cause real life antique collectors buy low and sell high all the time. Most, if not all cases that see any real legal action, are coming from a buyer who -->Bought<--- a fraudulent sale due to misrepresentation of what the seller/company promised. Otherwise you're pretty much claiming that all pawn shops are committing fraud when they buy high end jewelry for dirt cheap, among other items, which is a pretty ridiculous statement...just saying.

As big of a bummer this is for the original seller, there was no way you were an "ordinary" player back in the good ole' days- ordinary players didn't own beautiful gems, such as a perfect q8 OS Crystalline- whether you were lucky enough to get it from a drop, or you bought for much cheaper price (compared to today's market)... you knew exactly what kind of collectors items you owned. Maybe it wasn't "nice" of the seller to offer such a low amount...but can you blame him? I offered my q7 -2/-2 shield for the q8 15^50 crystalline currently being sold (or trying to be sold I should say)... However I may have said something along the lines "I'll trade you my q7 -2/-2 ;)" mainly in a joking manner with emphasis on the ";)"- as well as to be able to see if it was actually real, b/c those are like unicorns.... I can 100% guarantee I'd commit with the trade if he was okay with that offer, which is significantly lower then what he is most likely looking for lol. It'd be the first collectors item I'd customize too.
However, just getting back into the game semi-recently myself, I can sorta relate to not being as familiar with prices on rare gems. I'm pretty glad I found this site because there are lots of pretty cool players out there who don't mind helping me with any price checks on OS items in game. Sometimes people are off by few ectos...sometimes off by significant amounts of armbraces...but everybody seems to be pretty cool about telling you to get multiple opinions on certain items. On some rare gems, I've found you kind of have to just go with your gut feeling and knowledge from research on this site, if you're able to find a thread with a past sale- sometimes you don't always find the exact item you're selling and it makes it hard to decide on a price...and in those scenarios I prefer trades rather than sale for armbraces or ectos.
So as others have stated...you wanted to complete your HoM on a character with your trade....1750ecto should make that happen. As you're doing this to fill HoM, do you perhaps play GW2 more so than GW1? If so, this loss you experience won't burn as bad, cause you can get back to GW2 with your HoM complete. If you're here to stay in GW1, which hopefully you are, then this is a loss you'll never forget, not to sound heartless lol. Next time you'll pay more attention in kamadan trade chat, or do more research (something should tell you to question the market when you see Q9's that can still drop being sold for xx-xxx armbraces *cough* Bone Dragon Staff, Eternal Blade, etc...especially when Armbrace's are consistently being asked to buy at 75ecto per, and asked to sell for 80ecto per....these should have been signs to do further research, and would have taken all but less than 1 minute during any hour of gameplay in Kamadan.) Because of this....this trade wasn't anything close to being considered a scam...just a real poor unfortunate sale.
Sorry for the misfortune... here's an awesome tune to forget about it though
