Not a huge gain, but its all about increments and I think this illustrates the benefit of knowing your niche (wizards want crit).

had an opportunity to make a decent amount but didn't move on it because I wasn't expecting the price difference to be so significant on a ring that had +40 dex, +53 Vit, and +0.5% crit chance compared to a 83 dex / 4% crit chance blue ring

difference apparently is 5M+

differences like this is what really turns me off from current end-game D3 though

I don't AH snipe much. Only when I'm listing my own items for sale and I'm looking at the market price, I will buy underpriced items. This is my best one yet :

Nicely done.

That's not out of the economy, Blizzard use it to maintain the roads and pay for the education of imps.

Kinda depends on gem dont u think? 70% crit one has value around 400k by itself on AH (after cut), and actual craft price is like 520k. That reduces profit to 500k.

I'm actually quite surprised someone paid so much for those boots because of the lack of movespeed and lack of primary stats for the two melee classes. Are monks just that hungry for those all resistance that they'll ditch the potential 200+ dex on boots just for resistances?

I used the 50% crit gem, a trade off between not appearing cheap (45% gems are commonly dropped) and spending very little (20-30k). Anyone including a 70% gem is being a bit foolish I think. I doubt the majority of buyers take the time to do the calculation, and simply do a search for a crit % cut off. Those who think enough to check the gem price are probably also going to think enough to buy a socketed un-gemmed weapon.

Also, we must all do our part by paying AH taxes to support public services such as cobblestone roads and teleporters. How else would we farm efficiently?

My thoughts too, it would not have occurred to me to buy that to flip, just because it doesn't look sellable at all without +str or +dex and obviously no movement speed..

Hm this is interesting, the chest I am currently wearing i bought for 50k and it has 196 vit, 50 dex, 4% life and 3 sockets, it could actually be worth quite a bit then.. (ilvl 61 tho, so rather low armor).

Heya ! Stopped poker some years ago already.

Good to know the rake is put to good use to build roads and waypoints, maybe feed treasure goblins too.

High vitality roll, almost max resist and an additional resist, good for a monk. I believe damage is really secondary for tanks. If it had 200+ dex as well it would be well in the 30M+.

Move speed is great on boots, but it's not required for melee classes to have a high value item.

Yeah... I mean, I can understand typing the wrong number of zeroes, but wtf you need to double check those auctions when they are for 10m+. AH is like some kind of twisted objectivist dystopia.

what sucks is you cant check your minimum bid like that

accidently left a 0 out of my min bid on GG gloves right when RMAH came out, sold for $16 when it was worth $60
In Hungry Hungry Hippos there are no such constraints—one can constantly attempt to collect marbles with one’s hippo, limited only by one’s hippo-levering capabilities.

Tank WD and melee Wiz are quite popular nowadays. That might be another reason for the demand in this kind of items.
