a thin brown leather quiver
- From Ebon Gate 2009.
- infinitely replicates any arrow or bolt put into it (Edit: Probably not scripted arrows)
- Dissolve after being fired (not sellable, etc)
- beltworn, holds very small for one item.
- show: This thin, brown leather quiver is slender--seemingly almost too slender to be very much use at holding arrows. The leather is a deep brown, supple and rich, and bears a small, leaf-shaped stamp on one side. A cover of hard leather, secured by a small silver fastener, protects the contents of the quiver.
Cash only. Verified PayPal buyers only. MUST be non-credit card transaction (direct PayPal bank/cash).
Will end after this weekend, calling sold once bids stop coming in.
SOLD to Arctal

A 3-room shop in WL, Room 22.
Verified PayPal buyers only. Best offer takes the shop on August 1st.
SOLD to shad0ws0ngs (via PM)

Was wondering how the bow works if you want to change the arrow. Do you just pull out the arrow currently in it (saving it) then put a new one in, or do you just put in a new arrow and it overwrites the one currently in it?
To change arrows, you just pull out the old one and put a new one in. It does not consume or destroy the original arrows.



I would like to use a trusted 3rd party -- Ardwen preferably if he's okay with that, since he has a good reputation in the community and deals with high value items often.

The PayPal transaction needs to be from a Verified account, as a non-credit card transaction (direct PayPal payment).

I'll hand the 3rd party the quiver, wait for the PayPal confirmation, then give the 3rd party the okay to hand it over.

If anyone has an issue with this we can come up with some other arrangement, but this is probably the best for all involved. If you would like to bid but don't have a verified PayPal account, I will probably require something like a USPS money order via snail mail.

750 on it, though I'd like to do a 3rd-party for the transaction. I think we can all trust Ardwen. If the owner here can pass the quiver to him, I'll send the money and then Ardwen can pass the quiver on. It's nothing personal -- just a general rule when the two parties don't know each other and there's wads of cash going around.

I understand the concern. I'd be willing to make whatever reasonable accommodations, phone call, etc.

Edit: Will come up with arrangement with the buyer to satisfy both parties when the time comes.

If we used a 3rd party I would need a temporary cover of 50% of the purchase price in silvers exchanged for the quiver, to be returned once paypal deposit went through.

Something like that could work. The deposit of silvers could also be given to the third party to hold. The only issue is making sure that person is trustworthy. I don't think most people would have a problem with Ardwen doing it, but if there's someone else everyone could agree on, that would also work.

I don't think most people would have a problem with Ardwen doing it, but if there's someone else everyone could agree on, that would also work.

I'm pretty sure he meant he'd want to hold the silvers himself. It wouldn't make sense for the third party to hold the silvers as well as the item, since the only reason he'd need silvers is in case the third party didn't return the item.

I can understand your hesitation to just let go of this item without seeing any money for it, but you should know Monotonous, that Ardwen is 125% reliable and he would never even dream about stealing your item. Not even to mention that if he sold the contents of his locker he could probably buy 20 of these (if 20 existed).

I know what he meant, but I think that's asking a lot. A reliable third-party is really all that's necessary, though a deposit of half to that party to reassure the seller is fine, in my mind.

I agree that using Ardwen would be enough security, but I've also known him for a billion years and I would trust him not to run off with my item.

I'm just saying what you suggested really defeats the purpose of him wanting the silvers as extra protection, haha.

I really don't want to deal in silvers and won't value them anywhere near market price -- it would be better for buyers to sell their own silvers and offer cash. I don't have the time to sell them myself.

The PayPal transaction needs to be from a Verified account, as a non-credit card transaction (direct PayPal payment). The buyer needs to have a decent history here with no reasonable claims of scams in the past.

If you would like to bid but don't have a verified PayPal account (and MUST pay with direct payment -- NOT credit card), I will require something like (EDIT) a USPS money order, or a wired transaction. We can still use the 3rd party for this -- it'll just be slower.

Working in the collection field as long as I have, let me just say that Money orders and Cashier checks can be stopped just as easily as a regular personal check. I've seen them come back almost 30days AFTER the bank says it cleared and the bank will take the money back even if they originally say it has cleared. Just a heads up.

So you would effectively get flares every shot that didn't kill, with no arrow loss. This thing would be neat to pair with an unlocked version.

I'd say it's on par with a Spirit bow. Both have their advantages really. With this, your bow can still be disarmed and lost. Tho you never loose the big ticket item.

And as a combo a Spirit bow can use a healer, or a healing token that recent got re-released to keep so called God Mode active alot longer. In which case you get flares every hit, and double flares against undead.

Still this is one of the more awesome items out there for Archers.

It won't work anyway. Like the bandoliers, arrows from bottomless quivers only stick around for 20 seconds or so, and they poof if you try to hand them off or drop them.

andrew wiggin
07-30-2011, 12:11 PM
It's a very nice item. It's too bad I don't do archery anymore. This is the one item that's "worth it".

99% of items are just convenience or enhances you what you already can do.. This one actually gives you a whole new mechanical advantage, having unlimited use of something that may be design to have limited use, like the special arrows I mentioned.

And who knows what other arrows will be released in the future.

A big congratulations to the new owner of the item. maybe someday I'll hunt you down if they make arrows imbedible with offensive spells.

Anything with a script on the arrow will not work, that was tested.

So the second someone says anything about you, you pitch a bitch and cry like a titty baby but saying crap like that (as long as it's not about you) is acceptable? I'm just trying to figure out what your thinking is.

It's true though, he gets plastered, puts things up for sell, then yanks them the next day when he's sobered up. I would assume his bidding is the same. Drunk bid, and then the next day not honor it.

ANDDDDDDDDDDDDDD, he picked on me first.

With enough hard work, once you make enough silvers, you can buy and sell your way to never having to pay for GS again. When people talk about not being able to afford GS... It will pay for itself if you play it correctly.

So then what was the point you were trying to make in your original post. That you'd be more than willing to bid silvers that he's not accepting if you hadn't sold your silvers? In that case I have some imaginary Sean Silvers which I'll be more than happy to give you for your items.

People of means dont let small amounts of cash limit their enjoyment of life. Money is a tool to be used to get a job done. Like nails.. you hammer them into wood to hold it together. Money you spread around to get what you want.

With that said, id blow a load of cash on a high end ohe katana, and im paying more than Mogonis. (sorry had to hijack)

I intend to give Arctal the set I'm putting together for it. It'll include at least:

5x fire-flaring
5x ice-flaring
5x vibe-flaring
5x lightning-flaring
5x blessed with holy water flares
5x void-flaring (potentially)
5x acid-flaring (potentially)
0x damage-weighted

I'm also going to suggest mage-enchanting an arrow to 7x, then using PPs to get it to 8x for the ultimate demon-killer.

I'm still looking for some other interesting arrows, if anyone has any.

I'd also consider getting some enchanted and/or blessed blunt tip arrows. Not sure how long its been since they've had these around, but being able to do blunt damage with a bow is sometimes useful.
