Tibia reselling - still any good?

[HolmaN]

What I know, the prices has dropped. A lot.
However, are there still many accounts being sold, as well as gold and stuff?
I see quite some accounts being sold on the forum, but the forum is just a small part of all the accounts being sold.
It might as well be xeno forums favour that acc's are being sold fast, while they're not being sold at all on other sites.

With kind regards, HolmaN.

There is still a lot of competition on reselling aswell as the risks that are involved. Also a lot of time has to be invested for a "small" amount of money (according to swedish/dutch standards). But well I don't have to tell you about it I guess. Personally I think I should quit it, but I still can't resist getting new accounts if I have a feeling I can make a profit :P.

Anyways that's just my oppinion, I do think some people would disagree with me.

Well, IMO, you wouldn't stand a chance if you get back into it with your old prices.
In my eyes, both Czoger and Eslendil (Not that active) both got trouble getting rid of their accounts due to the high price these days, price has lowered, drastically.
But sure, there is still money to make.

Czoger prices are still shit. Eslendi has awesome prices. School is starting back up so it'll be a bitch selling chars for a bit. Late december/january will probably be hot.

Both their prices are high but they are "normal" compared to iBot and other forums, unfortunately still overpriced. Most prices I've seen.. I'm in shock because they're way too high. I've bought quite a few accounts on Xenobot forums though from independent sellers (not really major resellers) for good prices. Like the value of gold, the value of accounts is decreasing every day.

375 RP $450 Fully geared
410 EK, 310 MS, 235 ED $950 All characters fully geared
295 RP $180 Fully geared
351 RP $300 Fully geared
355 MS $700 Fully geared, Central Circle House, 100kk in rares/gold
etc..

The list is quite long but back on topic, I have to agree with Jah. I don't think there's any money in reselling accounts unless you're willing to wait a long period of time (just as most current resellers). My team has bought maybe 30 accounts here on Xenobot forums but we won't buy anything unless the price is right. Up until this past weekend, all sales were successful, now we're -80kk due to a son of a bitch named Heorek. :mad:

xD I didn't mention characters like the 252 ED for $100, the 190 MS for free (resold for $100), etc. It would be dumb if I kept all those accounts, I agree, but I sold all of them except the 355 MS, I sold the rares + KKs that came with the account.. I paid $700 for it - the KKs + rares alone doubled what I paid (nearly $700 profit). When people are buying KKs for $3/kk and reselling them for $10/kk then its something to look into but the market on that is even worse than it was 90 days ago.

Of course if there's not a profit then I won't waste my time. Its like buying eighths of dro for $35 and selling it for $60 or ounces for $225 and selling them for $350. If it flips fast then its worth the profit/hassle but buying an account for say $500 and not being able to sell it for 6 months for even a $100 profit.. that's a waste of time, lol, and I wouldn't advise it to anyone. Whereas if you found a similar account for half that price and know you can immediately make a profit on it, do it. You never know how fast the market is declining, which is certainly is (and has been for quite a few years now) so I'll never advise sitting on something for too long.

You could also be like Ben and buy an account cheap, bot it up another 50-100 levels making 40+ KKs doing so, sell the account, sell the KKs and increase your profit tremendously. He took my 251 EK to 300 in a few weeks at Brimstone Bugs and made shitloads of cash, the KKs from botting paid for the account and then some. He did the same thing with a 220 RP, bought it dirt cheap, botted it up to 300 in Corruption Hole -2, banked shitloads of profit.
