Yeah, it's tanked. A lot. I should probably sell one more from the vendor, before it tanks any further. It's a good thing, but I lost a lot of money on this hair.

Yeah, didn't you buy for 10m? Or even more, I remember you bought it a WHIILE back.
I'm just annoyed, it was a comfy 10m for a LONG time and then all of a sudden it's down to sub-1m. Less than the far more common Gyr Abanian Plait was, before that dropped too.
I bought it a little after it came out, but got it for 8 mill or so.
People shouldn't have been trying to charge so much for it in the first place. Yes, it's what they could get away with, but if they would have settled at a more comfortable price range, many of these people wouldn't have so many of them, that are now getting dumped for pennies, relatively. I bought and sold one of these hairs after purchasing it off the Zadnor vendor, and I only pulled in 1.2 million. When I first placed it up I had it priced at 1.7 mill! It went down 500k overnight. There were somewhere like 44+ hairs up for sale at the time too. Lots and lots of them, though I suppose many were people also trying to turn a bit of a profit before it's permanently tanked.
Regardless, come EW the hair will probably go back up a bit. When people aren't doing Zadnor as regularly, and DR is dead. No gold coins, less people earning platinum coins to purchase the hair. Might be best to wait (awhile) and sell in the future. I'll still see if I can sell one anyway, I need money more now than later. Well, I want to save up money for potential plots opening up come EW.
Was going to buy it with the Zadnor currency but ended up just buying it from the AH once the price actually dropped to something reasonable. Again, thank you devs for making this change. It's extremely appreciated!
Got the barding tonight, for the first time. Still have yet to see the hair drop once out of probably around 100 clears. Even with the hair now available for sale. :eek:
I sold 2 and made 16+ mil
I bought it for 400k
Some things in this game take some waiting
I've learned with their policy of dipping into the pool of old rewards to make things like PotD, HoH, lockboxes and Moogle Tomes more enticing instead of making new ones, pretty much no item is safe from plummeting in value someday. Even map cloth, primal weapons, mounts and emotes can end up there. It could be within a month or two, several years, or never, which makes it hard to predict.
Not complaining necessarily, just good to consider.
