Price Guide List

The founding principles of [CORP] and most players I know is fair trade.
We have an in house price list that I have decided to take public.
This list is based on trade experience since July, trade calculators, and gut instinct.
It is a guideline we use, not set in stone and reflects what we truly believe to be fair rates.
I do not have more exotics simply because I have little experience trading them.

UPDATED: 3/06/2012


First Number is suggested high price for in our guild.
Otherwise they are low and high end suggested for trade tab.

We suggest members buy within the guild as it helps the guild, and you might find it hard to beat our in-house prices. We tend to trade on the low end with each other.

This is just what I needed. I'm going to use your guide as a reference for paying my guildmembers and everyone else we employ for their services. Thanks for doing most of the heavy lifting:)

P.S. I've done some calculations on 5 or 6 resources a little while back and our numbers for them match up.

Great List SirRoy..... Im going to add it to the CEO Guide List. :)

That is actually kind of flattering.
I am hoping as the feedback comes in from other guilds and players that we can keep an updated list that more accurately reflects the trade rates as they fluctuate.

I like this guide....
I use it for all my daily tradingz. And I seriously appreciate you posting this instead of keeping within your guild. Thank you very much.

These prices seem very fair overall. I will recommend my Guild to read it.

how about adventures?

If anyone in your guild is exporting fish, gold ore(if mined), fir logs or either type of bows I feel sorry for them. I say this based on game math production value calculations. There's quite a bit of variance based on a variety of factors, but those are pretty outside the range regardless. Overall though, this chart's valuation is a lot more inline with my "mid-level average"ish production values based on game math than Talar's is with any configuration I would put in.

I just know I'm probably going to shoot my trade income in the foot one of these times by being too nice and posting about this stuff...

This is a whole 'nuther can of worms.
I always based my prices on the rewards/xp given, the demand and the supply.
Lately, there have been people flooding the market with under priced adventures.
This makes it very difficult to price them.
I am not even going to try.

To be honest, I only offer the list as a guideline in the guild. I have no idea what people are trading.
In fact, my prices have more to do with gut instinct and experience than production values.
My way is to overproduce everything so I have what I need and have surplus to sell.

It's probably a better guide than what people trade for on the market generally at least! Just consider it a warning to anyone looking to use it as gospel that while it's probably better than what most people are doing in the trade house, it still has some pretty big holes to exploit. Although, finding those mathematical holes isn't an entirely trivial task and it doesn't seem likely too many are going to be up to it (which is one reason why I am not showing off my own charts for all this right now).

Looking for a guild?
We would be glad for your guidance.
I have noticed you have made some very intelligent forum posts.
Shoot me a mail in game or PM me here.

Yes, adventures have never been on a steady price base... they flucuate alot

I'm curious if anyone has insight to share on what causes some of these prices to be what they are? I notice both steel bars and gold ore to be especially odd. Steel bars cost slightly less to produce than iron swords, but command a higher price. Gold ore at these resource prices would cost ~150-200 to produce 400, but only sells for 50-75.

That's one reason I posted the adventure rewards: http://forum.castleempireonline.com/...enture-Rewards
This data coupled with other information should allow us to come up with a reasonable price guide for adventures.

Has anyone ever managed to sell a stack of longbows for anything more than 60?

Depending on how you do it.
100 for 18-20 works well.
I have sold them from 55-80g

imo, i think marble is too high. i can see 20-25g per stack, but i wonder how much volume trades in those higher ranges. when i was buying marble, i could have my orders easily filled at 20g per stack. i haven't bought in a while, so maybe i'm missing something.

I tend to agree.
Marble prices have dropped.
List revised.
Thank you for the feedback.

and to show no favoritism between the 2 active lists that are out there, here is a link to a price guide from the euro server that is actively updated. I KNOW you can find items that do not trade at the same prices here, but it is a guide.

So to my understanding 10 units of wheat is worth 12gc?

Not sure where that idea's coming from, but ... No. A stack of wheat, (400 units), goes for anywhere from 5g to 8g if you're putting up the trades to buy it. Some people sell it for a few coins/stack more. And probably some people pay 10+g/stack.

I have been very inactive in the game for a couple of months.
This guide is in serious need of updating.

Oh Ok thanks man that makes more sense now haha

The price guide doesn't event make sense at all.

Of course it doesn't make sense. The latest dates on this thread are from 2012. There was a whole different trade system back then.

How much do we get for 5k of Wheat from Gold Coins?
