make sure

to include your IGN if its different from you screen name.

Also, be prepared to have your price adjusted by those of us who are price savvy. We watch the forums, we watch trade chat, we talk to friends, and we closely monitor both featured and non-featured auctions. There are many in here with a very good idea what the pricing [high and low] for a great many things are. Please don't take someone telling you that an item is over/under priced as an insult or a personal affront.

I'll be the first to do so, and on this item.
Yes it is possible to get upwards of 900k for it. But to do that, understand that you will have it setting in your inventory for a very long time. You must either wait until the all of them that are in circulation now (there are quite a few) get purchased and it once again becomes more rare, or you must get serendipitously lucky to happen across an impatient or ill-informed purchaser.

I can tell you that in the last 6 days there have been AT LEAST 3 of these pass through the AH un purchased, none of them garnering the min bid. They had min bids of 600k, 700k, and the other was either 650 or 750. Needless to say this was with decreasing min bids each trip through. And again, they all went unpurchased.

In the meantime, i know that both kleona and jssr has now opened one, so that means at least two more came into circulation while these ones were going unsold. So be aware that if you are looking to flip for quick profit, then you will do so at a number less than what you expect (i'd say start the biddign at 600k, let it go for two days, and then call a winner. i.e. 48 hour auction. If you want to start it at 550k, i'll put the opening bid down to get you started). IF you want to maximize profits, then you must be okay with holding onto it, and looking long-term rather than short term.

Even then, i'd say anything over 800k would be something to jump on. Since i'm relatively sure that if you got 800k for it you could then rebuy another one for less.

just my 2 cents.
enjoy the forum.

Bidding start!

I cannot place it in the Auction house, my Crowns are too low and thank you for all these information, my english may be bad but at least im trying to make the most clearly as possible and im gonna start the bid at 550k in the forum, the Auction will be up for 48 Hours but may last a little longer.
My steamID is uNideN_x1 if someone would quickbuy at 950k.

Bump to the Top.

On behalf of Mayhawk.

As much as i'd love to win this for minimum bid, i don't want our Dear Mayhawk to get a bad first impression from the bazaar.

@Mayhawk:
Good thread etiquette would dictate that you bump once every 12-24 hours if its a sale only (as in to timer just waiting to get your price). On a one week auction once or twice per day and then increased bumps the last two days is fine. On a 48 hour auction, such as this one, you should bump about once every 4 waking hours to keep it near the top, so people know that its ongoing and people see it.

So as much as i'd like to see myself win this (to use not resell) for the cheapest price possible, I'd also like you to get as fair a price as possible--and not lose profits based on poor execution of my good auction suggestion :D. So with this in mind, i will bump this to the top of the forums. And i will continue to try to keep it near the top throughout the auction.

Be forewarned, this isn't something generally happens on teh forums. its up to you to manage your own auctions. But i'd not want you to have a foul taste in your mouth or feel i gave you bad advice simply because you were not aware of how to best run your auction.

Cheers. Here is to me getting a good price on this :D

p.s.
Edit your first post. Change the Title and Copy and Paste the message, but change any pertinent information. May your Auction Be a successful one.

100 ce costs 7500 crowns to buy (approx--7400-7500 )
so 1k ce = 74,500
so 8k ce = 8x74500
8x74,500= 596,000 crowns.
