There's a big difference between a few minutes and a few hours. If it sells nearly instantly it is almost guaranteed that you under priced it. It could be "market value" and the person who was looking for such a thing just happened to be looking for one at the same time you posted it, but the majority of the time I'd bet it's a merchant trying to make a quick buck.

If it wasn't obvious to you already from what just happened with the ring, NOBODY knows prices right now. There isn't really a market value for anything besides post it for about what other people did and hope somebody buys it. Since every Quiver has attack speed though (and it is on the low end), I'd say that quiver isn't anything special. If you're commonly finding drops of that ring caliber it sounds like there are much better uses of your ten auction house spots.

One anecdotal experience about rings coming from 3 people saying it is worth something and 2 people saying it isn't = no one has any idea about prices right now????

I think what you should be saying is that not everyone is sure of prices on some things, in which I reply: yeah, but it doesn't hurt to ask.
Because despite not being entirely sure, everyone is sure of one time or another of selling an item of similar, more or less, of the same stats of the same item (or at least have been looking around/thus knowing how much they'd be willing to buy).
So even if we have little to go on, a collective opinion by a few is better than refraining from asking at all (especially since no one loses out taking a stab or a guess and neither do I getting a second opinion).

Found this ring. Doubt I'm gonna sell it soon since I play a DH and it seems insane.

I think jewelry has the most potential for flucuation though as it has largest pool of good stats. Almost all of the "grossly mispriced" items I've seen on the AH have been rings or ammies. They're very profitable, but very hard to price as well because they tend to be a lot more unique.

That's correct, nobody has a clue. If the auction house had better search functionality I think prices might be a lot better defined by now but atm it's all up in the air as far as I can tell.

My point was that you already did the only logical way to price items currently (search similar stats on auction house). Unless some one on these forums has been actively merchanting for the past week I don't think you can get a better opinion than what you had before you got here. Of course, that is exactly who merchants prey upon so I don't see why they'd give you a fair price besides being on team liquid.
You don't lose out by asking us, but you also have nothing to gain unless you're too incompetent to make inferences from prices. Considering what you observed on the auction house and the price you sold it for you aren't incompetent either. You might have been able to squeeze a bit higher, but then you have to consider the value of spots on the auction house which is another beast entirely.

I have been merchanting for about 5 days now and there are plenty of other people who do it too. Doesn't mean I don't value those who don't or those who are casually playing.
but you also have nothing to gain unless you're too incompetent to make inferences from prices. Only one way to find out and I got my answer in one way or another.
It sounds more like you have a defeatist attitude. I gain more by asking than nothing at all, even the reactions are worthwhile to engage for.

well the price right now is mostly set in compare to the TOP of the market and the total gold available from the 'farmers'. Look at the NoLife team for example: they are dedicated farmers and have in hand average 8mil each daily so the range price they could afford could goes up to 16mil for a top nouch item. I have no information on the chinese hacker gold farming market but if that info is publicly available, i bet the average item price gona go even higher.

My prediction is that the top end is what will really increase in the short/medium term while average item prices won't raise much. It's obvious there's going to be a lot of gold inflation, but I think item inflation is going to outpace it by quite a lot. There are going to be a TON of average items floating around which will keep prices down since they have (on average) no way to escape the economy.

Look at the NoLife team for example: they are dedicated farmers and have in hand average 8mil each daily so the range price they could afford could goes up to 16mil for a top nouch item. I have no information on the chinese hacker gold farming market but if that info is publicly available, i bet the average item price gona go even higher. My prediction is that the top end is what will really increase in the short/medium term while average item prices won't raise much. It's obvious there's going to be a lot of gold inflation, but I think item inflation is going to outpace it by quite a lot. There are going to be a TON of average items floating around which will keep prices down since they have (on average) no way to escape the economy. lets think about it like this: averagely a day you make 50k (thats how much i make at least) with the total value of items around act 1-2 inferno. Dedicated group could easily get 1-2 mil a day by looting 'sweet spots' over and over again. Hackers should be able to earn around 5-10mil my guess. So if top players make like 10 mil a week, the game came out for 2 weeks, that would be 20-30 mil around each of 50-100(?) players each sever. Assuming groups do share the same asset, items price range from 15-20 mil is totally reasonable.

I lowball the hell out of almost every item. If I don't need it myself, and the stats aren't worth drooling over, I'd rather move stuff quickly for lower profits. Especially if it's only the gold AH. No matter what I get, it's more than vendor price, and the last thing I want is badly priced shit clogging up my AH slots.
They're only pixels anyways, and it's not like it's the sort of thing that would be worth saving to throw on RMAH.

Or if they get mostly shitty drops. If I get something that's actually got good itemization, I'll sell it for a healthier chunk, although still relatively cheap, just because moving volume at a net profit is better than risking clogging up the AH.
And even lowball AH pricing beats the hell out of vending.
