What's a slab of eonake worth these days?

[LordBacl]

I've got a heavy eonake slab, untouched, weighs about 16 pounds.

What's that sucker worth?

eonake has been overpriced forever, I've always wanted a slab to play with, but I'd lose my ass if I were to pay the outrageous prices people have been asking for as long as I can remember. with a 16lbs. slab you can make maybe 3 good sized weapons, which 'supposedly' sell for 1m+ each though I always see enoake going for less than that, but even at 1m you're talking about making 3m off the sales of your making 3 blades, but how much do people want for eonake slabs? 8m-20m, never has made sense to me, the most I'm gonna get is 6 weapons from a 25 lbs. slab and that's wishful thinking.... never understood the mentality of spending 8m-20m to make 5m-6m if I can even find a buyer. So probably no one knows what it's worth because no one ever buys em due to the few people who have them thinking they're the best thing ever to have ::shrug::

Gotta figure it's a supply vs demand thing. Completely agree it isn't a profitable business venture to buy a slab in order to sell the weapons, so I guess folks buy the slabs in order to have weapons forged for themselves to use. About a year ago I purchased the remainin 6 or 7 25 lb slabs in playershops priced at 3m or less each. All that was left after that was the 10m+ slabs, and I wasn't about to pay that much. To stay on topic, I'd say you could sell it quickly for 3m or hold out and get 5-6m eventually.

ya i agree with ya both, id even be willing to drop 3m for it, but not 6m

[Belnia]

I wouldn't pay more than 50k per pound on eonake.

[Wrathbringer]

I wouldn't pay more than 50k per pound on eonake.

Well, thankfully, the question was not, "What would Belnia pay me per pound for my eonake slab." The question was, "What is my eonake slab worth?" But hey, thanks for contributing.

[Sile]

Well Belnia didn't get rich by overpaying for things.

[Mtenda]

LOL. Belnia has it about right. I'd say 1 mil for a slab and 500k for a typical elegant eonake weapon. The kind you could make 3 of in a slab anyways. A little more for larger weapons.

[Senglent]

16 lbs I would say 1-3 mill, for a full slab (25 lbs) 2-4 mill. But thats me everyone has their own idea on what stuff is worth.

I am pretty sure my blacksmith still has 3-4 slabs (1-20 lbs., 2-25 lbs. that I am sure of) from the EG slab makers, always wanted to try to make a perfect for him just never got around to it.

I second this. I'd gladly pay 3m, but would hesitate to pay 4m
