[QUOTE="Goumindong, post: 4332897, member: 70874"] Indeed. Some people also know how to buy stuff. It seems like "selling something" is a skill challenge. And "selling something really expensive for as much as you could buy it" would be a really difficult one. Guess what, you get to role play this. You do not get to roll a die and say "well my character knows how to sell it so i get x cash" Selling stuff takes time, your cousin has built up connections over years that let him sell stuff fast, adventurers typically do not have this time and will not be able to sell ridiculously high value items at anywhere near what someone established will want to sell it to them without investing time. Which is a quest, that you get to role play. That is just the way the economy in points of light works. That is your hard and fast economic rule. Its like you are complaining that goblins have too high "to hit" values. No. Value is based on what someone will buy it for and what someone will sell it for. And if you want to sell it without doing taking a long time to find a buyer who is willing to to pay what you want, then the answer to "what someone will buy it for" is "20% of its base value" This is simply not true. You will get the highest value of the item of the users of the site at the time they viewed it minus transaction costs. [/QUOTE]
