I always facepalm when people try to sell greater bags of holding for 400,000 AD, and similar other offers..

EDIT: yeah typo. My bad.

    Caveat Emptor.

    I confess I made a boneheaded move - I paid like tens of thousands of AD to pull a rank 5 mod out of a weapon so I could put it in my new, shiny, better weapon... and then it occurred to me to check the auction house and sure enough there are a boatload of rank 5 mods for sale, starting around 1,000 AD or so, sometimes.

    Definitely pays to pay attention and think before you buy ANYTHING.

    Iyokira 400,000 AD for greater bags was about right only a few days ago, you sure some of those are not still the same listings? Now they should be around 370-379k each.

    The other thing is, your statement should say please look up exchange rates before you buy zen shop items, if the player could have gotten it cheaper by converting to zen and buying it themselves, well thats their own bonehead fault.

    Another thing on top of that, you do realize 400k - listing fee - auction house cut you only get about 350k diamonds out of it so you are actually losing diamonds or maybe you missed that math section.

    If anything the 1m AD Mount is undervalue, considering the minimum epic quality mount for Zen is 3000.

    Guys, are you serious about the cost being 400,000 ZEN? I think you mean AD. Some players who aren't comfortable with the currencies yet may be seriously confused by this! :)

    I want to add that the ADEx chances often enough but the 5 day bid only auctions however....
    Open the Launcher. Click Options near the top. Check Disable on-demand patching. This will download another couple of gigs.

    I saw a fellow trying to sell a stone of allure for 1.5 million AD earlier. I would hate to think there are people out there who do not realize they can buy it for about 650-700k AD if they convert.

    Don't forget keys ! 49,000 AD even with the auction house fees and a posting min of 35,000 is still just over 360 AD to zen exchange rate . Since AD to zen has been around 350 all week , why buy keys off the auction house ?
    Keys still listed at 55,000 AD ?

    The one that gets me is the guy who was advertising in chat, his "lower than the AH!" sale of.... a Jeweled Idol. ._.

    With the current exchange rate of approx 370 ad per zen, 125 zen yeilds 46,250AD, and you are complaining someone made 35k off a key...is your math wrong or whats up.

    Same advice can be given to the Developers.

    ~2.8 Million AD to upgrade one (1) character's mount to 110%.

    At 500 AD/Zen, 2 Million AD to buy a 110% mount for all characters on your account.

    Maybe I explained wrong . 35000 is the min placed on them so they don't get ninja'd if I forget them . Everyone else sells them for 55K I place them for 49K and still make enough to slowly keep adding 1 more to my listings. What server you on ? Mindflayer has been at 350 since Monday , heck I got some for 340 but that was a spike .

    To be fair, that's not really accurate..

    1) Founder's pack isn't Zen or AD, meaning you can never get it without actually spending money, period.
    2) It's supposed to be a limited time offer.

    (I assume you're referring to the founder's pack, are you?)
