Market Network / Re: Quarantine Ore Pricing... Pickers Opinions Needed

Ah, I had not considered that:

`Despite the potential value (say two notes per ton), all stones arent intended for pnote conversion and its unreasonable to attribute all ore production to pnote conversion

`Pricing ultimately comes down to the perceived value of the object at the moment of transaction

`One must weigh production cost of ore versus/market offering

`A sudden increase of price of that magnitude would motivate stone buyers to invest their time into harvesting their own ore, driving down price via decreased demand/increased supply

`Most of the older population of AW (self included) would lay an egg/brick/foreign object if they had to pay 7 awd per ton for common ore...

I honestly hadn't considered all that, along with a slew of other rational points that Hultaan/Event/Rob pointed out.

Appreciate the clarification guys!

By all means, please feel free to continue this discussion, I'm in the process of writing out a business plan for an ore exchange service for newcomers, and would love to hear additional viewpoints/ considerations into q stone ore pricing.

Market Network / Quarantine Ore Pricing... Pickers Opinions Needed

 Quick question dudes...

Trying to get a handle on quarantine rock prices, having a few problems. What are the average prices people have been seeing lately? (Last 4 or 5 days).

Also, from what I've seen/ been offered recently, I've noticed tons of common stones (mostly copper, sulfur) trading at below 7 awd per stack. Pardon my ignorance, but why are people selling stones for less than the value of the loot it provides (which to the best of my understanding is two 3.5 awd p notes per ton of quarantine ore)? Obviously this will greatly increase the price of ore, but this seems the fairest base price I could reach via my very unscientific calculations/ reasoning. I love low prices as much as the next guy, and Im always looking for the best value for my awd, but 2awd per stack versus 7 is quite the difference. Am I overlooking something obvious?
