Appraisal: Bow and Blink orb

[Kastrel]

Any guesses on what I could expect to get for the following two items:

6x fusion longbow with +4 to Strength and +4 to Ranged orbs

5x a day Blink (1215) orb

[Buckwheet]

Around 15 each would be my starting point.

[Kastrel]

Is that fusion bow the kind of thing that will take 5 months to sell while I wait for the right buyer, or do you think it would move fairly fast?

[Buckwheet]

I have routinely seen 6x fusion long bows sell for 10m. If you look at a 4 to ranged enhansive that is going for 6m not even accounting for your strength orb, I would say you have a nice bow setup. I would not expect it to sit around for long if you priced it to move. I think based on that my 15m is still a good starting point.

[Kastrel]

Thanks for the info Buckwheat. Before I make any decisions here, can I get at least one more opinion on potential value?

[Thondalar]

With the orbs in it, I wouldn't take less than 16 mill for the bow, but i'm a jew.

I recently moved a 1215 orb myself, not sure if this is the same one...there's only 2 or 3 out that I know of...anyway, I used it as part of a trade, but relative value in that trade was ~18 mill or so.

Good to know. Thanks again.

[Slit-eye]

For what it's worth, while I wouldn't pay more than 15 or so for either item - I most definitely wouldn't let them go for less and would probably charge upwards of 20 for the orb. The bow being 6x is a mere 5 DS above it's 5x counterpart at 5 million... but the orbs inside bump the value by about six mil base. 15 sounds just about dead on. The orb is more subjective in pricing. While Blink is a very useful spell, you have to wonder how many get out of jail free cards you'll get with it. The longer you keep the orb the more it pays for itself. I'd start both at 15 mil, expect not much more for the bow, but the orb may indeed go quite a bit higher if you find the right all-or-nothing attrition model buyer.

[Kastrel]

If I can break even at 30 mill between the two of them, I will be more than pleased. Higher than that is gravy, but thats my real question.

And thanks for the third opinion.

Trading your sephwir?

Blink doesn't flare all that often so at 5x a day even if you power hunt it should be more than enough charges per day.

[Kastrel]

Yep. I'm happy to have it move at all, and it sounds like they are offering me the better end of the deal. Been getting some second opinions, but it sounds like a deal that works for the best of us. I have no use for a bow, and they can't use the Blink stone (I can, at least, even if I don't sell it).
