Why sell ToS for 1.1k when you can sell for 0.2125USD (from 0.25)?

First of all I had to have lots of ToS. Now even myself is running low and I can only sell like 100pcs or so.
Gemcrafting is also a big gold sink & ToS sink.

i think the write up is a previous post (that time ToS around 1100g, now around 1700g i think), but it was published abit later. the writer theory seems logic, since ToS is base on drop and the current craft uses more ToS ratio than other ingredient.

only thing is...to store those craft ingredient is space consuming, only 100x per essence/tear, should make the essence and tear can stacks like ToS (1000x)

It's demand and supply.
D3 Gold loses its value if there is no demand.
ToS loses its value if there is no demand.

Should I keep D3 Gold or ToS?
It is irrelevant because there is no way we can control the demand in D3. We can only speculate.
It is just a game. It doesn't even worth extra effort to speculate.
I'd rather play a new LVL 1 Hero in Act 1.

here's why.

remember 2-3 weeks back when inferno essence was around 1.1k and brimestone at most 150k?

now think back to last week when essence was at 1.7k and brimestone almost 200k.

I sold almost everything except 400-500 essence, and 600 tomes.
making a quick coin.
and planning to cash out with my btc later on.

if people constantly farm for ToS, nobody is going to pay for overpriced ToS.

one just need to farm 1round - easy run to be able to craft each time.
count the number of inferno farmers, dont think ToS price will make you rich lol.

also, put into consideration for bot farmers, chinese farmers watever you call them.
if they can dupe imba xbow and openly selling them in AH,

duping ToS is peanut to them. price will not only stop going up, it will go down.
dupe items can be scanned and fixed, used ToS is not reversable, it's easier to dupe with that.

Do you meant you sold 100 ToS on 0.25 USD Each ( total earning USD25 for 100ToS )?

I purchased more than 20000pcs ToS, not even 1 from RMAH.
1 ToS for USD0.25 - Troll of the Month

Simply you dont know how to craft.
Radiant Star Emerald Sell for USD49 each.
Gold cost about 20M (including all the gems, tos)
Convert USD49 to Gold yourself.

20mil is not gold sink.
i purchase more than 500mil from farmer.
buy item in game, craft, blacksmithing, sell for AUD/USD.


But selling 20 ToS for USD5 really shocked me.

Moral of the story -
DO NOT EXPECT EVERY PEOPLE ON EARTH ARE SMART.
Buy 20 ToS For USD5 = Idoit.
There are many idoit playing D3.

You owned. Yuhhaur.

I will post 1k ToS tonight.

I put tome of secret for few days already with no luck.

Btw, I also plan to do jewelcrafting. But no matter how I calculate, there's little to no profit at all.

Starting at flawless square emerald takes 729 gems and 1631 tomes. Let's take the current AH price for example :-
729pcs gem x 2,637 = 1,922,373
1631pcs tos x 1,064 = 1,735,384
Crafting cost 15,500,000
Total : 19,157,757

Current AH price of Radiant Star Emerald : 23,047,034 - 15% = 19,589,979
Profit : 432,222

Current RMAH price of Radiant Star Emerald : USD 48.52 - USD 1 - 15% = USD 40.39
IF wanna convert back to gold. According to seagm price is USD 2.13 per million. Which means I get 18,963,330. Loss of 194,427.

Any other way to earn gold can share? notworthy.gif tongue.gif

Your convertion, calculation only prove 1 thing. You lack of resource, and your respond is slow.
If we are talking about making gold/USD from Diablo 3, you are just.. doh.gif


Commodities are hot piece before RMAH commodities up.
Depend on RMAH/AH alone, you are way to slow to make gold/usd.

My Priorities Off-load Point (no blizzard cut)
- Gold selling site with item sell. ( i sold some gems to them, USD49. they able to sell at USD80-90 )
- playerauction
- Blizzard Diablo 3 Forum - Using Paypal
- Ebay ( the more you post, the more you get )
- Non official Diablo Forums
- Trade Channel
- RMAH
- AH

Rolling Gold into USD
Buy gold from Farmer.
Build up blacksmith ( when i said build up, is not level up the smith. i spend more than 50m on recipe - 2 +6prop cost me 35M already )
Gathering Materials from AH
Mass producing.
Godlike - Forum / playerauction / ebay ( post a copy every corner the world, dont put in RMAH, avoid 15% cut )
Good - Sell in RMAH ( to push RMAH sales, use trade channel + D3 official forum )
Middle - Sell in Trade Channel
Low - AH
Useless - donate to players
Commodities - high level gems - Selling at website/Forum/ebay

Diablo 3 not worth my time playing. but playing the item-trading is superfun & profitable.

You are professional farmer. ( hard earn gold )
I play it like a businessman.

thats the different.
