Turned an awesome roll on my first set item, a Tal Rashas helm into 2 million. Then this thing pops up way underpriced for just that much.



Finding that auction was so much more fulfilling than farming aspects for 4 hours to get the helm...
Are you saying that you spent 2m on that mace?

American planes, full of holes and wounded men, took off backwards from an airfield in England. Over France, a few German fighter planes flew at them backwards, sucked bullets and shell fragments from some of the planes and crewmen. They did the same for wrecked American bombers on the ground.

People are saying that the lower end market is falling out, but I flipped some sub 100k stuff this morning for 200-600k no worries.

As more people get to inferno without shitloads of cash surely the middle tier resit market will still have buyers?

Yeah, the lower end market had the bottom fall out of it over the weekend. I'm sitting on a bunch of merchandise and it's looking like I'm going to take a bath on most of it, to the point where I've got a bunch of mid-hell/early inferno type gear that I'm just going to vendor, grind into components, or use for my own alts when the time comes.

The same poo poo that you would hope to get lucky and poach for 20k and resell for 75 with zero effort is routinely listing at 10k right now.

We should have some sort of Wiki page or something that a lot of people can modify daily with auction house trends.

Am I correct in compiling from the last couple days:

The low end AllRes/Vit/Primary Stat market is drying out. Used to be you could find a fair amount of 20AllRes/30Vit/~30MainStat pieces for <30k and flip them for a solid 100k average, this seems to be less available and less lucrative now.

There logically should be a market for slightly higher gear, same stats, maybe 50/50/50, worth around 250-300k?

ASpd Rings and Amulets with ~30-50 stats, AllRes/Vit/MainStat preferred of course, worth around 500k? More for Magic Find/Gold Find?

I've heard whispers of an IRC channel, do we have one?

Not sure if we're still playing the fake quote game, but attack speed on a chest slot is something you can't get outside of uniques. Definitely worth more than that, for specific builds if nothing else.

I think we are because it took me 3 seconds to search it by name and sort by buyout and see the cheapest one available is 800K. That is a particularly nice roll with vitality so it would probably fetch more but that would require effort on his part to actually scroll through the 5 whole pages to see where ones that affix with vitality are.

God I fucking love Diablo 3 gold, it even paid for this shitty title

It's listed at 1053 gold. It's even on the pic you posted :???: For serious though, I dont know if there are any of that particular legendary on the market, but search for rares/legendaries with dex and vit. Then double the highest price because people seem to love legendaries. I totally missed the pun by the way...

And now for my pricing question... This more has to do with how to treat socketed items in the AH. Someone was complaining that you can't filter out/for socketed items and I kind of agree that it confuses the system a little. I just had this drop and don't know what to do with it:



It's not great but it has solid defense and the resistance isn't so bad. I should definitely slap some gems into it if I want it to sell and I have a bunch of flawless square gems lying around. A ruby and two amethyst would boost it to be a better item for barbarians but I just dont know what would work best. I'll try searching for items of the same level with comparable stats in str/vit with all permutations of those gems placed in this piece and figure it out.

EDIT: well I didnt know that, but I was referring to the fact that when you filter for 100 int for example, it uses the total bonus of the item including sockets. If you are just looking for one stat, an amulet with 100 int is worth less than an amulet with 90 int and a ruby (which you can swap for a topaz). That might be a stupid example, but I have seen some dumb rear end gems in things.

Thank you for this advice, I don't know anything about economics and basic stuff like this is exactly what I need to hear. Similar items are between 600-900k, for anyone who was curious.

Yeah I genuinely don't understand how someone could have a legendary drop and not take 10 seconds to see how much it goes for (cheapest String of Ears is usually like 300k). I've seen this happen a few times.

What's the AllRes on the String? And what primary stats?

Pfft, if they wanted to do a real Underworld reference they'd have a legendary mojo named King of Snake.

Come daddy, I'll show you the end-game!


Just finally hit a spot of luck in an Azmodan farming run. Head to the AH with about 20 million worth of goods. Put 2 weapons up.

Both of them don't show.

Infact pretty much every single item I have listed on the AH has only not sold because they don't show up.

Getting really annoying, i've seen so many items I want to buy that I could easily afford if the AH worked at all.

I wouldn't have paid that much personally just because the resists aren't great. I haven't done a lot of pricing on amulets with armor, but my initial feeling is that you could have done better.

You probably overpaid a little, but not enough to be kicking yourself. The resists are low but the +armor and massive int make up for it.

I assume you're an intelligence-based class? If so that seems pretty decent for that price.

An amulet high in both a primary stat and vitality is already fairly valuable (and 245 int is very, very good). The resistance is quite low but the armor is good. I'd say you paid about market value, perhaps a bit over. But you didn't get ripped off.

It looks like the AH listings are being cached for up to 20-30 minutes at this point - probably the only thing that is stopping the servers from smoldering into piles of molten metal right now.

You didn't overpay at all. 300 armor is worth the same protection as 30 res all more or less. So think of it as 50 res all.

On the EU, where I play, I'd say it's worth next to nothing. No AllRes, and apart from the Int which is OK, the rest of the stats are pretty worthless. Maybe 20k or so? I'd be tempted to just salvage it, though.
