Meep! Too soon to talk just yet. Had a few investments bomb on me. Fortunately I built up a decent amount of profit after the recalculations to cover the loss and I've pretty much recovered already.

But damn, altogether I probably lost about 15,000gp because of the sudden drop on Katana, Norisu and OMFG. They were climbing so good too crying

Ah well. No one had a loss in their gold so all is good, yes?

*ducks and covers from incoming missiles of rage*

Oh, and I"m rarely on MSN cause I don't get a long period of time on the computer with so much stuff going on around the house. Building fences doing minor repairs, repairing family computers, caring for the kids, attempting to help clean the place... gonk

Having a life and responsibilities is no excuse to miss out on MSN and Star Wars time!! ~shakes fist at jer~

True, that. There's always time for Star Wars time! I have a huge stack of novels to prove that! hahaha.

25 that I can see, but I noticed 2 are currently missing. At least one of the ones missing is that crappy "Splinter of a Mind's Eye"

You remember Nick, right?

He once said, "I used to read some of the [star wars]books. Then I realized most of them were bad." and went on to say, "And for the record, the prequels were worse than the books."

bahaha, man, that guy is a soundbyte/quote machine! biggrin

Id? Yeah, I remember him. I wasn't there for that conversation though. I've rather liked the Star Wars books.

Skully, if you want a start-up gift/loan or anything of the sort, I've got plenty I can dole out. Oh, and welcome aboard at the Zed-vesting Firm! Great sharing mule space with you. mrgreen


Thanks for the offer, I appreciate it, but Zedd seems to think my 7k will do ok.

It'll do fine. As I said, Ethan forked over 11,000 and I did pretty good with that.

Basically what I do is group investing. Everyone's money in that account is used on everything and profit is divided up equally when I'm finished for that run.

It might seem like a weird system, but it has been working very well so far. That way if someone doesn't have much gold to let me use, like your and Ethan, you don't get shafted on any profit.

Myself and Uma are the only exceptions. We don't claim any of the profit.

Update time!

Start Date: Aug 15, 2007

Zeddicuus:

Total starting amount: 467,000gp

Current funds: 142,000gp

Items Listed at Cost:

Norisu Scarf: 95,000gp
Ice Whip: 33,000gp
Katana: 98,000
OMFG: 120,000gp
Summoning Tome: 14,000

Current Total: 502,000gp

Grual:

Total starting amount: 312,000gp

Current funds: 149,000gp

Items Listed at Cost:

Lunar Cloak: 65,000gp
Katana: 97,000gp
Scar of Hero: 23,000gp

Current Total: 334,000gp

Not too shabby for 5 days. Not as good as the last couple weeks, but still not too bad. Grual has had a bad week, despite carrying almost identical items as Zeddicuus at the same prices.

Ok I made a guild mule. The name is Horn and Ivory. All profits from this acct will go to fund the contests that we run and to get people items when they are broke and cannot get them by themseves.

Zedd, I will PM you the password. Just delete the PM after you get the pwd.

Okily, sounds good! I should have the money to transfer over shortly.

Ethan, I can't get on MSN. I'm watching some kids and they're rather rambunctious. That and I'm not on my computer and this one does not have MSN installed.

Man, I've been feeling run down lately. I hate insomnia.

Yeah, I can mindlessly rant here if I want. It's my marketplace thread.

Now, details relevant to the thread: I'm stuck with another OMFG. I was thinking it would sell better than it did this time. Again. I thought it was worth the risk for 30,000 profit! Grual sold one for a 6000gp profit!

Another random note: These Lightsabers rock so frigging hard. I've been a diehard Star Wars fan for...oh...20 years... and I'm finding I like the Lightsaber item here on Gaia as much as the Katana and Gwee, which to me are the greatest special items ever.
