Shops and what gems you'd like to see stocked!

[Morrff]

Didn't know exactly where to post this, so here works.

Trying to figure out what types of Bounty gems people would like to see stocked in the following towns and what price they would be (realistically) willing to pay.

Currently I have shops available to me to stock in Ta'Illistim, Landing, Teras and FWI

Currently stocking Uncut emeralds/diamonds through out all shops. In Illi I stock those along with Dragon's-tear diamond/emeralds as well as uncut maernstrike diamonds.

Problem I have/see with my stocking now is people want them for under 10k however I can sell them after purification and my 202 trading ranks for well over 10k. So about 80% of the gems I currently save up to stock get sold to the jeweler for more then I can sell them in a shop. SO, I'm looking to stock less expensive gems and keep them stocked at all times for peoples bounties. Hopefully people will chime up here and I can have a good idea what it is people are looking for.

Haha, I've yet to find Troll-cut gems, I'll keep my eye out though

It seems that gems are (for the most part) graded on a scale from one to seven. Brown zircons and the like are ones, and range in selling price from five to fifteen silvers (base value of 10). Sevens are around 2500 to 7500 (base value of 5000). Could be wrong, though. If it's right, I wouldn't mind seeing a general pricing standard applied to gems based on this qualification, say 10% over max, or some-such. I hate when I get a task for rarity 1 gems and people are charging 5k apiece- but it sorta makes sense.


Here's a workbook with some values on it. My list of gems and their general values is the 'gems' tab. Rarity values are on sheet 3, I think. This isnt' anything I've spent time making pretty- just something I use occasionally to get deeds and such.
Rada's mostly useless excel gem workbook thingy (http://bingweb.binghamton.edu/~bkarker1/gems2.xls)

(If you really wanna do what I do with it, make a list of the gems in your gem sack... I C&P to word and use Find and replace to replace all Comma&spaces with carriage returns. Then paste to sheet 1. Doesn't really take that long. It'll spit out some basically useless numbers, but you can delete each gem as you sell/use for deeds. It works for me. I figure people would be more interested in the gem values, anyway.)
