How much do you think the radiant galaxies will increase by? I have 13 of them, but I don't know when to sell them.

Theoretically? Infinitely. Given enough time, anyway. You can expect to be able to sell them for 1.5x what you bought them for or better in one to three months. Sell them when you're happy with the profit but I would recommend holding them for more than three months as they will get increasingly harder to sell around that point.

So I should hold on to them WHILE they are hard to sell? Won't that make the price drop?

No, no. That's not what I said at all. >.<

You hold onto them while the price goes up. When the price gets to an amount you feel happy with then you sell. But I wouldn't hold onto them for much longer than three months because by that point they start to get harder to sell.

Dumping in an effort to get rid of an item when few units sell daily would make the price drop which is why you sell hoards you do so sensibly one at a time or sell them in the Exchange in bulk.

Ahhh sorry, I misread. I actually had a good run dumping a huge amount of hoards, after the initial batch the price dropped so I bought em back for cheap and then sold them later.

I don't advocate dumping because it often means you end up with less profit than if you'd sold them slowly.

When do you think we should start selling Radiant Galaxy?
I really hope I spent well.. I bought it spending over half of my gold :/

And you piss everyone else off when you do it.

In one to three months. Whenever you feel happy with your profit.

Love Charm III doesn't look like it has that many fancy items, at least not yet. A rabbit pet though... that's going to be really popular ^^ Do you think it's worth hoarding so far?

[Jace Quin]

I'm going to refrain from giving an opinion until I learn more.

What should i invest in with 800k ?
Birthstone Anklets?

[Jace Quin]

If you want to? I don't think it would be a bad idea. Probably better than this month's RIG. But buy February ones, not January. I have to update the list tomorrow.

Thanks for everything, Jace! By the way, your blog,or whatever it is called, is a pretty good read to pass time. This last one is kinda thick for my tastes but i completely agree all the tax laws are pretty stupid.

One question on hoarding, whats the largest horde of bundles you would recommend in one month?

It depends on how much gold you have and how good you are at selling. But mostly you have to keep your funds in mind. You want to keep investing in new things so if you have a bunch of gold now you might not want to spend it all on the next thing you hoard because you're going to be holding onto the item for a few months and there may be something between now and then that you want to invest in as well.
