The Paladin is way over priced.... ouch! cleric is close imho but still maybe by 25%... the pally though is like 400% or more!

Haven't looked at all of them but Cleric is not too far off.

And it's eBay, if you're doing BIN might as well start high and lower it if it doesn't sell, so surely that will happen.

Ok, maybe 300% on pally... I agree cleric is probably closer (I missed ring of heroism first time I estimated value)... rogue has nothing special, maybe twice the value...

I am bringing LOTS of pre-cut glow tape to Origins, free for the asking... (a couple per person please)

I got iabout 40-50 already cut to the needed width maybe an inch long... nail clippers work great to do final cut.

I have given a lot out on the past, but I got the idea from Kirk of TDTaven, not my original idea...


In any case I appreciate the ones that you’ve given me you are awesome!

They also posted in the Gen Con forums, I agree their prices are high, but not completely bananas.

I think they are around 40% higher than what they might realistically fetch (depending on the build).

Long experience on my part of suggesting to people (especially people who have primarily been collectors not dealers) who are about to sell what market prices may be for their items has led me to the conclusion that such a service is largely unwelcome :).

Many people think they should he able to sell their exact build to someone for a full list price. Clearly these people have never traded in a car before.

I counted the Paladin out too. Even at full list price, I think it is over by about 150%. I could see it going for 5K as a full max amount, but if a person wanted to "invest" and hold to resell, 3500 to 4K seems more reasonable.

The Monk and the Cleric arent too bad.

The Paladin and Fighter are quite a bit over.

The Rogue and the Wizard are basically waiting to go into trade goods, with a few exceptions.

The Bard is probably the closest, but overpriced.

to wrap around the Tokens edge, in case it goes flying you will have a better chance in finding it

What about the cool
And one of a kind binders
Light Blue with art words.
So 5k for the Binder
4k for the tokens.
The Pali build sells for 9k.

That makes sense - I hadn't thought of that but I'm at a point where losing more valuable tokens would be really painful... I'll have to get some of that tape :)

A little over priced as people have pointed out, but I get the feeling it might be an honest mistake (or wishful thinking), but probably not anything nefarious.
