[Price Check] Full set "of Exceptional Quality" Ringmail armor

[Flagg]

..Also a question; How did such items come to be exactly? Under what conditions did pre-AOS craftables end up with this name? Found the set on my old account that hasn't seen action in a decade or so.


Is actualy 4+1 parts, comes with a plate helm.

You're looking between 3-7mil a piece. I'd say market value is 4mil per piece personally for armor the is OEQ. I hope this helps.

id have to disagree. generally the ones with out the title of the armor sell for around 1m. 2 years ago you could get these for 50 to 100 k. if they were full titled, like "a chainmail armor of exceptional quality" youd be looking at average 10m or more per piece.

as with all things, price comes down to buyer. its also a complete set so that helps with price a bit.

for how they were created, it was just a bug in the game that was fixed eventually with a later publish. kind of like how arties could be imbued for a while, or double reforging.

Thanks guys!

Suppose I'll just use them as deco of mine own then, considering how these are actually hatchlings of mine own nest and all. ;p

checked vendor search, looks like only 1 wearable for 1m. perhaps my pricecheck was low. i do know its a bit harder to sell than full titled.

if it was one of those things where its really not worth to sell for average price, you could always try vendoring for the weekend at around 50m, who knows someone might buy it.

Yeah @Smoot that pricecheck is super low for in game selling. I vendor search these items everyday and have a pretty firm grasp on the market value, where they actually get sold at. Also, the 10mil per piece for full title is high. There have been pieces of armor that sat on vs at 8-10mil for months. Full title normally actually sells at 5-7mil each if it's iron but a colored piece of armor can sell for a lot of gold depending on the piece.
Ps: if you have any OEQ Smoot and want to sell at 1mil let me know

hehe well, maybe our markets are different. ive sold full titled pieces for 20m each. full suits of double exceptional for 175m. price on the no-named exceptional may have gone up, strangely, because i know many people just trashed thousands of these for clean-up points. like i said, 2 years ago they were very abundant and sold for very little. about 1/10th the price of full titled or less.

perhaps the market has changed but i know most double exceptional collectors tended to stay away from pieces that werent named, and colored also used to be worth a lot less than clean iron.

i guess what we can learn is markets change. whats worthless can change when someone starts collecting it. like halloween bone containers, used to be free or around 1m for good name/rare color. now those same pieces selling for 20 to 30m. i sold one a month back for 250.

and no, i never kept the no-name double exceptional stuff, that 1m piece was just on vendor search.

Yeah, you are both right. OEQ used to be worth 100k or less. Very few collected them and it was standard practice to trash for points as they sat on vendors without selling. The full titled used to be worth a lot less than it is now as well.

To be honest, I'm not sure what drove up the prices of both items except possibly the hype generated by players.
