5-6 mil each seems overpriced to me
ratio 1-6 seems overpriced also to me

people were trading 1-3 and 1-4 not long ago

That is a good sign, Siege is getting back to life. If I remember right, it had been close to 1-10 in the past

I've played Siege off and on for 7-8 years. Its Always been atleast 1-5 Ratio.
The other people must just not care. I've transfered least 100 mil between prodo and Siege back and forth with random people or a broker.

hopefully i will be proven wrong
I traded 5 mil SP for 30 Mil GL last week. I was on GL real quick for something, someone mentioned Siege. I said I played there, they wanted gold and I did it. Person didn't even play Siege yet, but he wanted gold.

Prodo gold is selling for .20 to .25 per mil -- last I checked.

I just checked on one of the websites that drops books at the moongates to see what they currently charge for gold on Atlantic: $4.43 for 10 million, which is $0.443 per million. So, someone who wanted to buy 120 million in gold for delivery on Atlantic would pay this third party $53.16 (120 x 44.3).

In the Origin store, you can buy 3 raised garden beds directly from EA for a whopping $19.99, or 6 of them for $39.98. Or you could buy one set of 3 raised garden beds for $19.99 and purchase the Rustic theme pack to upgrade your account and get one more raised garden bed for $9.99, for a total of $29.98 for 4 raised garden beds and an account upgrade.

I think 120 million in gold on Atlantic for 4 raised garden beds on Siege might be just a tad bit overpriced.
Your also going by some random website for your price of gold.
Your point here is invalid due to your using an illegal brokerage side.

Siege gold ratio is 1 Mil Siege for 6 Mil Prodo

Siege sells Garden Beds for 5 Mil at the cheapest.

5 Mil Siege = 30 Mil Atlantic

So if you sell 4 garden beds for 5 mil then x-fer the gold to Prodo.. Its simple math. I shouldn't have to spell it out but I will.

30 x 4 = 120

Tell me again how this is too much gold?

Soulstones Sell For $10 or 5 Mil Siege
This makes Siege gold worth $2 A mil.

So if you sell 4 Garden Beds @ 5 Mil Each = $40

So thats $40 in Siege gold = 120 Mil Atl (Effectively making it $0.30 a mil)

But wait.. THERES MORE!!

If your doing in game trading for items worth XX amount on Origin Store, you always end up paying more then you should as someone spent RL money on Pixels and thus want a greater return. Otherwise wouldn't you think someone would just go buy the beds themselves for RL Cash? I always pay more then face value.



Spread - Just sell the beds for SP gold and x-fer the gold with a broker. Obviously people don't understand economics or how things work with pixel currency in reference to real money.

well maybe people dont have rl cash to spend on this item but are wealthy in aspects of gold???......BUT IF EVERYONE READS THE WHOLE POST IT SAYS "OBO" also known as "OR BEST OFFER" 120 was never an anchored price just somewhere to start at, so thank you all for trying to tear down this post even though exchange rate is 6:1 and all the math would check out that way if i were to just sell for siege gold and broker it........

The Origin store sells a Legacy Token (good for one full soulstone) for $9.99. If you buy two of them, you spend $19.98, correct? Or, as you implied above, you could pay someone in game on Siege 10 million gold to get two full soulstone tokens, since you stated that full soulstones are worth 5 million in "Siege gold."

Now, for one penny more, instead of buying two Legacy tokens to get two full soulstones, you could pay Origin $19.99 to buy 3 raised garden beds.

Therefore, it seems logical to me that if one were selling raised garden beds and wanting to keep the price for them in line with what is paid for full soulstone tokens, you would sell 3 raised garden beds for the same amount that you would sell 2 full soulstone tokens.

You indicated that full soulstone tokens sell for 5 million in "Siege gold," so two full soulstone tokens or 3 raised garden beds should cost 10 million in "Siege gold." That makes each raised garden bed worth approximately 3.33 million in "Siege gold," (10 million divided by 3). As a result, 4 raised garden beds should be worth 13.3 million in "Siege gold" (4 x 3.33).

If 4 raised garden beds are worth 13.3 million in "Siege gold" and the exchange rate between Siege and Atlantic is 1 "Siege gold" for 6 "Atlantic gold," then it would seem that those 4 raised garden beds should be worth 79.8 million in "Atlantic gold."
People don't go and buy the garden beds often enough, soulstones much more in demand. Before the 3 pack it was also $9.99 for one. The price has since not changed on Siege. You must not play here often enough to realize the economics of Siege.. :)

Nope, I do not play on Siege that often anymore and have only accumulated about 5 million in gold there. The most expensive thing I ever bought on Siege with gold I scraped up was a white cloth dye tub. I log on daily for a while, listen to general chat, putter around for a while, and then I leave. My 3 houses there (I used to have 5) and my truly meager belongings there (some claimed vet rewards and stuff purchased from the Origin store being the only things I own of any value) feel like millstones around my neck, but I'm reluctant to just let them go. I'm one of those people whose houses people poke fun at when they finally collapse because camping them was generally just a big waste of time. Nothing of any real consequence to prove I was a "somebody" on the shard, just a lot of "junk."
Regardless, the comparison of the RL Cost and the Pixel Gold Cost is a little irrelevant. I'm not bashing you or nay saying, but the economics on Siege differ from Prodo and you always pay more gold per the cost.
