I am not selling this at all but I am curious what people would value it at.
Holds 1,100 lbs, belt worn and has 50 percent weight reduction.

beltworn? wtf what good is 1100 pounds . if you put in 200 pounds inside, you are still carrying aroiund an extra 100 pounds. you would never make it to 1100

Yeah, it has its uses but not really a beneficial combo. Like a shield with +50 TWC

You save weight by not having to use any other containers unless you choose to do so for sorting purposes. You are capable of holding as many items as either the character item limit or your stats will allow, rather than just how much your containers can hold. At 50% weight reduction, this effectively doubles that amount (assuming it's heavy shit and not just hundreds of Tkaro roots.) I would use my 1k sack to hold as many boxes as possible in the field until I couldn't carry anymore. If you have maxed stats on a favorable race with enhancives as well, the number can grow quite large, more than I would imagine all standard containers combined could hold.
I'd imagine this is one of the more valuable containers in the game. Pretty fucking sweet.

I bet this sack would pair up great with the Belt of Kai.

There are times when I'm hunting and the pile of boxes at my feet is just too much to carry. This sack would be nice for that. Probably not as nice as the price it would command for sorcerers, but nice none-the-less.

With my setup I can haul in 25-30 boxes in nelemar in one hunt. Speaking of the Belt of Kai, I really would like to see a hunt how much that would increase what I could haul. Giga and that would make a killer combo.

How much does it weigh by itself?

Hard to check when you've 500k in gems and crap in there.
Ok, I'd guesstimate it's worth $2000-2500, maybe $3000, depending on the buyer. A similar 50%/<2/200 cloak went for $1500 after a bidding war, but that was probably higher than average price paid, as it would have sold for $1000 if there weren't two bidders vying for it. This has same the weight reduction, and obviously has an interesting perk of increased capacity (though still limited by race), so I'd say it commands a premium over that cloak. How much of a premium? Probably double-triple that cloak's value, as that's what the actual usable weight would be for most races.

I appreciate the feedback on that. I don't like the term but meta-gaming the hell out of it to just see how far I can push a box hunt does humor me a bit. Have 3 strength enhancives, phoen's and wiz strength, surge, boost encumbrance, warrior armor support, case that holds coins weightless, Giga and then working down towards dual daggers and swinging at 15 second rt... fun stuff. There is probably more I can do. A side note the third floor of nelemar becomes dangerous again then.

Switch to mstrike, that rt is capped.
The main danger then will be maneuvers and DS loss from the massive encumbrance.
...and falling down.

I have 1100 pounds of container space, which I routinely fill up completely on a 40min hunt. This item is awesome, it would let me bring that much more back to town.

If I had that sack i'd walk around naked, wearing only that.
I'm a minimalist though.
