Price Check on a "Book"

**Maddux** · 24th September 2006, 02:48 PM

Its an open book, and you can't write in it or open it to any page. It looks like the book sitting on table in NPC Inn's. Any idea on its price or how rare it is?

You and me both... those are old. I have one as well. Someone offered me 1 mil and I was like... what?!?!?!?!?!? Hopefully, we can both get an answer.

You'd think people would learn to not carry such priceless items on them while travelling around in Fel.

Oh well, what's on one man's corpse is another (usually Maddux's) man's treasure.

These little priceless items make Eowyna very happy.

Those are super old, like pre UOR. You found a good one, Maddux.

Tovladian Soltyr · 25th September 2006, 12:22 PM

They averagely go for about 3 mil, super old yes, but on the older shards they are considered an Uncommon more then a rare. Those would be considered really rare on my shard (Legends) cause the only way it would be over there is by transfer.

You used to be able to steal those in Buc's Den, Castle Blackthorne, and some libraries in 98. They are rare because you can't do that any longer, not like bottles and stuff like that. One is being sold on a vendor in Luna for 5 mill and it's still there, and I saw it go for 9 mill at an auction. It's one of those items that doesn't have a standard price, because not many exist, so it's really up to the buyer how much the price goes for. I would ballpark it at around 4-5 mill, though you may be able to get as much as 7. I think the 9 mill price tag was high because people at auctions like to overbid to "show off their wealth." As stupid as that sounds, it happens a lot.

Thanks Merc

You just gave me a lead on making it a matching set.

This is so very true, being someone that rune and auction house I've seen a lot of people that like to flex thier wallet muscle to try and impress the shard populious. I don't complain though the more and Item gets bid up to, the high my 5% off the top will be

There are some Edan & N'Telquessar I will out bid each and everytime, regardless of cost.
