Hello all. On June 8th, I hung up my poker hat and took my poker gains and used it to thrust myself into the armor market. I thought I would take some time to give y'all an update on how June went for armor.
I sold a total of 229 pieces of armor, broken down as such.
Combat Helmets were down because I did not invest in them until halfway through June, along with the fact they aren't best in slot. I don't really invest in Combat Vests for this reason.
The armor I sold I invested 1.1 billion into, while selling all of it at 1.372 billion. That left me a profit of 270 mil, or roughly 12.25 mil per day, since I started on June 8th.
As you can see I've had 150 bounties placed on me since June 8th. 106 of those bounties were for 150k, 44 were for 250k. This is a total cost of 49.65 mil expense to other armor traders. This has saved me 155 mil in small explosive expenses.
Two things I assumed when I started doing armor trading was that A) the higher the armor value the longer it would take to sell and B) it would take longer to sell armor values right below a whole number like 38.93
A is pretty much not the case, and B is the case.
I started with 0 people who had me blacklisted. I ended the month with 11, an increase of 11 angry armor traders.
I had 5 armor traders ambiguously threaten me and my faction, with 0 people angrily threatening myself and my faction in May, for an increase of 5.
I had 1 trader angrily close their bazaar to me as I was buying their armor to relist. That person has since sold all their armor to another armor trader so I wouldn't be able to relist it and gotten out of the armor business.
Affluenza is a bully, he gets super pissed when you undercut his prices and attacks you. Affluenza doesn't know how markets work or how pricing works, and just flails around at whoever is near him when things don't go his way.
Best armor I have for sale is 69.10% Quality for 332 mil
I am relatively new to the game, and I'm here to provide you with the best fit armor for your prices. Come on into my bazaar and peruse the selection to see if anything interests you.
I'm happy with buy mugging. If you can get me before I deposit, good for you! I won't do anything against you, it's just part of the deal for me.
