Diamond Prices

I strongly believe the the health of the game/server is reflected in the price that Diamonds are being sold at.

Whats the pricing like on your server? ... Reni right now is about 65k per

What do you feel is a good price for diamonds to be at for to keep it healthy (by that I mean to keep both buyers and sellers happy enough to both want to keep playing)

Reni is at 65K/per? What server are you playing on? Reni is at like 35-45K/per. Paying anymore is just getting gouged... AH Price =/= Actual Price

Well the lowest AH price to sell diamonds is 65k on reni atm.
I also see in the buy area that people are offering 50k per so I find it hard to beleive that anyone would go through the trouble of gifting stuff for 35-45k when they can just go into AH and get 50k for there diamonds.
2-3 weeks ago I was buying for 40k all over place, not happening the last week though

I've seen people selling for 35-100k. just depends on peoples moods and how competitive they feel on a given day. also depends on how desperate they are for gold

On Palenque dias in AH are right around 40k each and falling, a few months ago they were selling for ~55k each. Have to keep in mind the market was flooded with dias the last month or so. So it may very well go up again.

Well we have a few morons that came back to Reni, buying diamonds in WC for 35K and putting them up for 70K on AH right after. Those individuals tried to kill the economy last year by making prices rise to the sky. Since they have been gone, economy stabilized and endgamers and diamond sellers made prices reasonable. But now those said people are back and trying to screwed up the economy again, sad people who have no control in their own lives, so they do it in a game to show off all their stupidities and lack of cooperation.

Reni is an awesome server, let's get rid of the rotten apples and bring back the fun of the last few months.

To all the guilds that have helped Reni in the last few months, tyvm, you know who you are. Holding world bosses for Elites that some players couldn't have gotten without your generosity. Disturbed has made quite a few new friends and guildies in the last month. People from other guilds came to our vent, impressive and funny how you talk to people instead of WC or GC, gets you another perspective of them. Really glad we had the chance to communicate with them, as they saw what we stand for in Disturbed, FUN, HELP and COOPERATION. We are not Endgame, we are not the best, but hell we make it fun. Whatever guild you are from, we have true LOOT rules and everyone gets the fair chance of getting the drops. Learned that from endgamers i have runned with.

I VOTE MATRON FOR GM position!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! he would do a hell of job and understand people who got tickets and issues in the game.

On Govinda they are hovering from 50-55k. At that price without double dias its about $1 per 1mil. When you consider stats are anywhere from 12 to 70mil per. Yea, id love to spend $12+ per stat. Totally realistic way to spend my money.

Dia prices are anything but overpriced right now..

*EDIT*

Not to mention the underdura, unplussed, untiered weapons in the AH for 130mil. On double dias thats only $65, what a steal!

*puts on his captain obvious cape*

by buying from people who were willing to sell for 35k and finding some dumbasses who were dumb enough to buy from AH for 70k i suppose.

Darn. I could've had 35k? I sold my dias for a stack of magic beans.

is this another, "i think i should get RL money for less of my work IG" thread?

50-55k i think is a fair price. I will never sell lower then that and when i do need to buy (in between double diamond sales) i have no problem then paying that.

People with hundreds of millions trying to get more RL $$ for their work in a game i think is not cool. Again they are the same people trying to fleece people for gear and stats. So they want to sell everything they have for a jacked up price for more IG gold which they then want to turn around and get more diamonds for.

just to add each puri at 55k a piece is 1.045 mil with no specials. So any stat sold is pur profit above that. Each advanced unbinder (when on sale) @ 55k a piece is 3.795 mil. Any piece of gear sold above that is pure profit. So stats for 10-20 mil should be REALLY rare, like oranges. Not Shell stats. Gear should not hit 30 mil for an UD piece. It baffles me that people believe this is even fair to new players.

Anyone remember when people used to World chat that they are selling gear cheap if the buyer send their ABL. I mean cheap 1-5 mil. Now they do it and you send them a message and they go "Yea ill sell it to you for 15 mil with your unbinder" and it is UD with no set skill.

In the last 4 days the lowest price on the Reni Server for 100 dianonds was 6,750.000 I have been looking to buy but the price is far too high. About 5 days ago there were a lot on sale at 4 to 5 million for a 100 but a page and a half of those vanished in 5 minutes when I transfered gold between characters to buy some. So someone bought out over a page and a half of diamonds in the aution house in those 5 minutes to drive the price up. Thanks for getting rid of the diamond NPC which was the only control on idiots like this.

My guildies were able to them at 35K to 45K per from people on the server, i sell mine 30K to guildies and friends outside the guild pay 35K ;-). I am not here to be the richest of the server but just help the good people of our server, and there is quite a bunch of those.

Let'S make RENI the greatest server!!!!!!!! WE CAN DO IT!!!

LOL the diamond NPC didnt change that behavior at all. Diamonds in the AH did, it opened that flood gate.

I told everybody that diamonds in the AH would only drive prices up and all of you argued with me and told me i was wrong (probably because you hoped it would drive prices down or you really didnt understand how it would modify the supply and demand or just wanted it back in game for your own reasons). Just like Diamond prices were NOT affected putting the diamond NPCs in. Only thing it did is gave some people the option to abuse this feature to avoid paying for a game they play.

Why is it so hard for people to think that a company would want you to PAY to play their game? F2P means you dont have to pay per month. Not that if you want to do everything in the game, it will be free. If this was true and NO ONE, EVER had to buy a diamond, the company would not make a profit. What company that you know of (besdies non-profit oranizations) would do this? Would Dominos give away pizzas all the time? FREE PIZZA TO ALL ANY TYPE OF PIZZA!!!! They wouldnt be around long. Just cause it is a game doesnt mean the same idea doesnt apply.

I totally agree since 2 players that I know of have returned I have seen the market go to h... Send them packing

Also Thanks to the higher guild with the elite kills as well I was able to get my 70 elite because of your willingness to help (and it would have been a long long time before I saw it myself). By doing this I could stay in a guild I call a second family and still progress my toon

Did i say that? no i said its profit. For someone throwing around the word stupid, let me walk you through it.

You pay x for an item, you then make some modifications on it and then resale for Y. Y-x is your profit. That doesnt mean there was no cost for the work required for taking it from x to Y. However, in business it is still labled as profit.

Like you buy a car for 6000, you then give it a tune up, clean it, etc. This is done with stuff you already have bought so you didnt expend any new amount of money just the work you put in. You sell for 9000. You would consider that a 3000 profit right?

So people who are geared etc have already put their money into their gear, already are running such instances, etc. RIght? cause if they are selling those stats they probably dont need them theirselves cause they are already running it. They have probably made back most of what it cost them to get to that point as well.

i specifically targetted shell stats shouldnt be 10-20 mil. how much work/money is put into getting those stats? Not much so the reward on the work shouldnt be the equivalent of 10 mil.

I used to think you were intelligent but to make an asinine statement like that has made me rethink my thoughts on you

Edit: ok i did put pur, meaning pure profit in there. That was a little misleading.
