Hi guys smile

I've been a little inactive for a while, and I was hoping for some advice on what to use my gold on investment-wise.

I've got 61mil for long and short-term investments. Cany anyone suggest some good items? smile

I've mainly been exchanging with RIG's recently, but they can be a little unstable.

Thanks in advance smile

Hello LadyShi, I've just joined this guild yesterday. I am no expert and cannot even compare my wealth (in money plus items-wise) to yours.

You must have been very smart to gather that much gold through investing and exchange. It must have been a long journey smile

I personally think Sainte Ciel 2nd Gen. (the un-used book, not the opened forms) has potential to increase in value. It has been raising, but it's hard to sell. The thing is, it's true value can only be witness through if either of the 2 opened forms sisters will continue to rise with their prices. As a short term investment it can be fun... Maybe...
(but Copper Twopence hasn't been doing as well as I thought it would be. I recently bought Carol of Ol' Ebeneze quite cheaply from marketplace because of both Carol brothers had been dropping in value, great buy I must say! mrgreen Now I have the Carol Ol' brothers!)

Lost starseed seems nice as well

Good MCs that you like very much cannot be too wrong as investment, if all will fail, you can wear them or giveaway some nice MCs as gifts to your good active friends smile
I love Golden Fleece, the golden horns are one of the best
Gift of the Gods deflated, even back a year ago, the price hasn't changed much. It's an awesome MCs. It's price is a steal!

Not saying that this isnt great advice, but we're going for the wrong items here. ^^;
Personally I feel that that ship has sailed for the Sainte Ciels. If they were still in the Cash Shop and a good 300k less as they once were, then by all means it would have been a great time to pick them up. I picked up a couple and made decent profit on them each when they finally left. I wouldnt advise doing this now since the price of a sainte ciel is much higher than getting either one of the EI's. You're much better off just buying the EI itself, since they sell on a regular basis and save gold in the process.
Still, I feel it is too late to start hoarding those EI's anyway, but if you are willing to put in the extra gold for them and have patience, its your call.

I honestly dont understand why you are picking copper twopence, but can only assume you are taking a shot in the dark which is poor decision making when it comes to hoarding. Unless you have plenty of funds to spare, alot of older items are well past their prime and are not worth hoarding, since they could sell poorly on a regular basis, are unpopular with the userbase or their price just never goes anywhere. The MCs you mentioned are simply not hoarding material. Both have been around for quite awhile, but they arent even close to seeing 100k. Hell, Gift of the Gods has been around since 2007, and its price is just going for 50k. That right there tells you that this item just wasnt popular enough with the community. Remember, "good" is subjective. The item itself has to be well received as a whole if its going to considered for hoarding.

I recommend that you pay close enough attention to our current EIs and MCs, as well as staying on top of the current rig and picking up an advance bundle as well. I also suggest getting ready for Easter.

Thank you for great advices This isn't Sparta, you can tell I am not at investment. I didn't bought copper twopence but I bought the brothers from it because I just like the items 3nodding

Yeah, I have always been wondering why there are no inflation at all on gift of the goddess, gift of the gods, and golden fleece. I can only assume not much gaians are interested in them who hasn't got one themselves. So you are right smile

It's quite shocking to see Sainte Ciels raise in value by a lot at close to 200% increased in prices! That bloody new REI for Sainte Ciels' continue storyline

Random Items Generators = RIGs. They are called CIs, it stands for chance items, You open it you get something random. The best way is not to gamble, keep it and sell RIGs at right time on marketplace

I say stick with the RIG's... if you buy at the right time and the right price then instabilty shouldnt be a problem.
They go up eventually, ive never seen any rigs drop in price tbh...
So what do you mean by unstable?
