I’ve had a blast reading all of this, many trips down memory lane. I’ll share mine with you:
In 2005 I got scammed 60e and 60 obsidian shards in one of the desert missions.
I had just leaned how to run Droks on my W/Mo, with mending of course. I was so proud of myself. I ran it obsessively, making a lot of platinum that quickly turned into ecto. My only goal was to have obsidian armor. Many people I admired in the game that I had met wore obsidian armor. I was so envious and really wanted to be like them.
After I had earned 60e / 60 obsidian shards, I decided I would go into FoW to get the helm and chest. My logic was this: the chest was the most expensive part and I’d get it out of the way, and the helm, in my opinion, is the best warrior helm in the game- it fit nicely with my elite gladiator armor I was wearing at the time. I successfully completed getting these two pieces and continued running Droks for another couple of weeks to save for the other half of my armor.
I finally had my last 60e and 60 obsidian shards and I was in ToA spamming for a group during favor (it was limited because favor was based on who was holding halls) when all of a sudden, a person named ‘Legendary Scorpion’ pmed me saying “hey man, how’d you like to double your ecto and shards? I know a trick”. I said of course bro, that’s a no brainer.
He took me to the desert mission where you walk up to the ghostly and it triggers a cutscene. Before we enter, he goes “this only works if you have no skills on your bar and have no armor on”. Obviously I took my skills off my bar and armor was put into my inventory.
After we began the mission, he says “see that rock? Stand inside of it. This will only work if you stand inside the rock”. I agree and stand inside the rock. He takes off running, out of my sight. I hadn’t really done many of the missions in the desert up to this point so I was really curious and not familiar with what he was about to do to me. (Without me understanding, he ran to the ghostly hero, where he would sit ready to trigger the cutscene). He asked if I was ready, and I said sure. He told me to drop my ectos and shards on the ground and he would start.
The second I dropped my ectos and shards, he talked to the ghostly hero, instantly teleporting me to where he was. I had no skills. I had no armor. I saw him take off in a full run / survival build to retrieve my hard earned ecto. When I realized what was happening, it was too late- I tried to catch up but there was no hope. I eventually died to the devouerer’s that pop up and cripple / bleed you. I see in chat that he picks up the shards, picks up the ectos, and maps out. He put me on ignore.
I was devastated. I was 15 years old, all I cared about was this game (still true kekw). I was heartbroken. Stupid me sent a ticket in (detailing how I planned to duplicate items but got scammed lol) out of panic with screenshots and his character names in hopes of him getting banned / never having others go through what I did. Anet responded by saying “yo mfer it’s illegal to dupe items and we will perma ban you next time if we catch you trying this”. I was shook to my core, and to this day won’t even run toolbox out of fear of getting banned lol.
yeah that sucks
Its still hard to believe that people are so wrapped up in a video game that they will rip people off for stuff

Dont know if you are still looking for Water Wands or not
-
So close and yet so far
-
Put them up for sale and see what happens. You're under not obligation to sell if they dont met your expectations. I'd wager a guess that most of the pre nerf green collectors have their collections filled due to lack of activity in the thread.
I dont think the martial weapons will fetch 50-100e, but then again I may be wrong
-
higher r's
mixed attributes on staves
skins that arent wanted
-
The Stonereaper is pre nerf an arm or two for a green collector, maybe more or less?
Unholy can confirm or deny the other greens

As far as Drago's bow's I usually get them mixed up, think most go for around 5e but one is usually higher? up to 50e maybe
