RCU7115 Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 I'm just wondering is there a reason the uncommon salvage prices keep rising.There is always more on the market than being bought. Just a few weeks ago it was still selling at 1k now it's climbed up to 20-25k. I can afford to pay that price but I refuse to. I just go to the AE and do a quick farm run for tickets and get my uncommon salvage there. I just think it's unfair for the newer players that might no be able to afford them as the uncommon salvage is as expensive or more expensive than it cost to make the lower level enhancements. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lines Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 There's a pretty substantial thread about this with a variety of ideas in there. And a lot of other things. It went off track. Also this one in the market forums. Whatever the cause, I'd just encourage people to sell their yellow salvage on the market rather than to shops. Everyone wins in the long run. Not by much, but it's still a win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rathulfr Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 I've started collecting yellow salvage in my SG base now, along with the orange.

Herotu Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 (edited) I encourage people to bid at the current price, that way you'll get them at the same rate the person who just bid does. You share the loot, and one of you isn't shafting the other person. Edited March 30, 2020 by Herotu ..It only takes one Beanbag fan saying that they JRANGER it for the devs to revert it.

I've been collecting yellow salvage in my base for a while and it's typically been more than enough to craft all my dropped recipes. I've been keeping an eye on yellow salvage in the AH, and even needed to buy one piece the other day to craft a low-level recipe, and it seems like the 'buy it reasonably quickly' price is somewhere in the 12k-13k ballpark. 1 Popmenus > Badge List | Optimal Paths | Conversion Possibilities | Emotes Wiki Pages > Costume Color Schemes | Set Bonus Comparison Tables Maps > Vidiotmaps | Optimal Paths | Halloween GM Maps | Winter Gift Maps | Offline Map Viewer Sounds > Banshee Sonic Attack Datasets > Recipe Salvage Components | Badge Name & Settitle ID | Exploration Badge & History Plaque Coordinates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwitchFade Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 This one is straightforward, There's a price ceiling at 100k. Below that, the laws of supply and demand drive price to an inevitable equilibrium point. The price you see is due to the fact people are willing to buy at x price and other people are willing to sell at that same price. If either party becomes unwilling, the price will inevitably shift. There are many complicated aspects to factoring the determinates of supply and demand, but if we suppose that all but price hold steady, this is the basic concept of equilibrium. Now, if one of those determinates changes, then the entire demand or supply curve will shift, vis a vi every point of individual demand on that curve. Suffice it to say, no one is changing it in the medium to long term, it's simply the result of buyers and sellers meeting at equilibrium. Want it to shift lower? Change a determinate like this: become a supplier with massive inventory, enter the market at a low price and flood the market with your product. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Without_Pause Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 I think the biggest factor is people are using uncommon recipes to do enhancement conversion on so they can flip them on the market so people need bulk amounts of yellow salvage. I currently sell my yellow and orange salvage on the market at super low prices and then go and buy whatever I need at the time I do. I put in prices I feel I'm willing to pay. With enough alts to wait on those bids to come trough, I tend to get what I want at the price I want to. Top 10 Most Fun 50s. 1. Without Mercy: Claws/ea Scrapper. 2. Outsmart: Fort 3.

I use the term 'trainwreck' in the most affectionate way possible, of course. It was a roller coaster, to be sure. 1 1 1 Popmenus > Badge List | Optimal Paths | Conversion Possibilities | Emotes Wiki Pages > Costume Color Schemes | Set Bonus Comparison Tables Maps > Vidiotmaps | Optimal Paths | Halloween GM Maps | Winter Gift Maps | Offline Map Viewer Sounds > Banshee Sonic Attack Datasets > Recipe Salvage Components | Badge Name & Settitle ID | Exploration Badge & History Plaque Coordinates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roleki Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 Dual-client and get a farmer on both accounts. Alternate between them semi-regularly, and the only thing you'll need the market for is a place to dump your garbage. Those of you who continue to profess a belief in the Users will receive the standard, substandard training which will result in your eventual elimination. That will be all.

Saikochoro Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 Incidentally, the last few days I feel like yellow salvage has decreased in price. I am now able to consistently buy it now at 15k as opposed to 50-100k a week ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said I can easily afford it but the newer players can not. The dev team should've put a 10k limit on the uncommon salvage and a million on the rare.

I feel empathy for people who don't want to go through THOSE hoops - because they shouldn't HAVE to - but there are a million ways to earn inf (and salvage) in-game, and eventually, everyone can afford what they want. Keyword being 'eventually' - if you value your time at all, you'll dual-box and sidestep these Gordon Gecko wannabes completely. 1 1 Those of you who continue to profess a belief in the Users will receive the standard, substandard training which will result in your eventual elimination.
