Here's how I see it:

10,000,000 Big Note = 10,000,000 coins
2 Perfect Token of Best Luck = 1 10,000,000 Big Note
2 Perfect Token of Best Luck = 10,000,000 coin
Half of 10,000,000 is 5,000,000.

Therefore, each Perfect Token of Best Luck is worth exactly 5,000,000 coin.

Discuss.

    If people think 4.800.000 or 4.900.000 is good enough for them to sell, then who cares? It's their choice. Yes, 5.000.000 would be the logical choice, but if you're trying to sell it quicker, you'd want to sell it a little cheaper.

    Some people use all their cash and have one 1 Best Luck left over, and maybe they don't want to exchange them for anything at the Boutique Agent, so they'd rather sell it for SOME coin rather then do nothing with it at all.

    But then again, this gives some people who already have 10 mil + coins to make a massive profit.

    Don't worry about those people. They're greedy, and they won't get their sales anytime soon.

    They're not scammers, just greedy. The scammers are ones who sell normal tokens of luck (not best) for 4.5 mil each.b:chuckle

    I'm guessing that those people are targeting the ones who already have 1 token of best luck and need one more to get the 10 mil.

    I'd say it would be higher than 5kk.

    True, for 2 you get 10kk and 10kk/2 = 5kk

    but you are also able to get other stuff with them.

    And if you try to get something that costs more best luck tokens (twilight sceptre ftw) you have to offer people a profitable deal from not just npcing them.

    it's worth 5m.

    The thing that gets to me is the 20+ shops in arch offering "Best token 4.5m" and selling normal lucky tokens. Do people have no shame =/

    Take a look at the other choices and you'll see there's really only one choice: 10mill coins for 2 Best Luck Tokens.

    The other choices are ridiculous by comparison. I was lucky enough to get two and it didn't take me long to realize this.

    True, for every normal thinking person it's like that. But someone crazy enough to go for it could try to get the 3 "special" items, that only drop in tt3-3 with a 0,02% chance or so thus making it as good as impossible to obtain at the moment. So, if you are rich enough, you could just buy as many best luck tokens as you can for 5kk each and hold them until someone like that shows up. No risk for you then, yet you could profit.

    P.S. I had 4 best tokens and traded them for 20kk though b:cute

    Welll.... no.

    The 10m note gives a floor value of 5m per token, true.

    But people may well value some of the other prizes way above that - 2 chrono pages perhaps? - above that.

    I think its fairly stupid that someone buys 2 tokens at 5mil each in order to exchange them and get 10mil. o.O. 5 mil is not its real value.

    Its like a NON-BETTER-THAN-QUEST-REWARD NPC 3 star weapon that decomposes into 2 mirage celestones and has a 10k fee. Someone comes and says ... oh, 2Mirage=2x30k, decompose=10k= 70k. And sells the weapon for 70k. That is not its real value. Maybe the cost of materials, but still.
    (Since its not better than quest reward, it shouldnt be any use for anyone)

    And yeah,yeah,yeah, some one gets a Best Luck and needs another one so he spends 5mil in order to get 5mil more.

    still. selling it for 4mil will make it dissapear from ur inv. before you can scratch "what happened" on ur notebook.
