Curious Artila Death and Drek Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 Is there any way in AV4 to get a better price for sold goods? I'm only at the Eastern Gallery, but so far every merchant who was willing to buy from me only gives about 25% of the actual value. Can I improve this, either by a quest or a location? There dont' seem to be any skills in the game that influence buying/selling... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Ephesos Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 Sadly, Barter is no longer a skill, and there's no way to get more money out of your items. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rotghroth Rhapsody Walter Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 Hint: when selling stackable items try to sell them in groups with a value that is a multiple of 4 to get the most money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast VCH Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 Does that make the items worth more money? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyshakk Koan Croikle Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 It will only prevent rounding from working against you, I think. The difference should be fairly small. For example, if something's worth 5 coins, you can sell it for 1. If you sell 4 separately, you'll get 4 coins. However, if you sell 4 of them together, they'll be worth 20 coins, so you get 5 coins. I guess it could add up to something reasonable over time, but for me I think it's just too much of a hassle for the gain. Obsessive maximizers (not that it's bad to be one; I pick up goblets when I find them) may disagree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast VCH Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 Around midgame I don't pick anything up really. It's just trash any way. There are plenty of coins on the humanoid monsters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rotghroth Rhapsody WiKiSpidweb Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 Yeah, money seems pretty plentiful to me. I was maxed out at 30000 for quite a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rotghroth Rhapsody Walter Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 Money is not plentiful if you try to get many skills trained by trainers or learn spells enough. By the end of my game I still had skills I wanted to learn from trainers and spells I wanted to improve. As for the selling in groups of 4, there are some odd effects: lamps have a value of 3, so 1 lamp gives 0 coins, 2 gives 1 coin, 3 gives 2 coins, and 4 gives 3 coins. Food, and javelins have a value of 2, so selling 1 gives nothing, and if you sell an odd number you get just as much as if you sold all but 1.
