Sellable Seasonal Barding

Will the egg-barding be sellable?

Yes it may be market prohibited for now, but once events are over certain items become sell able. Will the the will new egg barding be able to, I have no idea. Maybe it'll be in the cash shop.

This item has the EX/untradable tag, hence it will never be sellable.

Untradable, unique, market prohibited, unsellable, doesn't mean we won't be able to sell it on the marketboard in 2 months. Thats what happens to a lot of seasonal items.

They were tradeable from the start (it was possible to mail them to an event mule on an 2nd account). It was just not possible to put them on the market.

The barding is Untradeable (bounded on character) / Unique (can only have 1) from the start, not just market prohibited.

Untradeable items have NEVER been later changed to be tradeable. Tradeable items that are Market Prohibited DO sometimes have the Market Prohibited tag removed, like many old seasonal furnishings. The furnishings that are no longer Market Prohibited were always sellable/tradeable via PF from the start.

This is most likely a reason why SE is making new seasonal stuff unique/untradable/market prohibited

Actually, they have been making season items sellable via the MB that were once Marketboard Prohibited.

Items include, but are not limited too, Starlight Sentinal trees, Paissa Doll's, Cherry Trees etc. That's why you'll get many players that buy "extra's", store them on their retainers and then sell them a few months down the line for eggstraordinary prices. When they add them to the MB as an item they get unlocked.

I'm not sure that they would do this for barding however. This is more something I would expect them to put onto the Mog Station. I think they had the old Christmas barding on there at one point?

Yes, but they were also already tradeable outside of the market. They were not untradeable (bounded to character).

I hope they open up the doll stand from the Little Ladies Day event eventually. I bought up a ton of them. :P Though I intended to get a couple as I didn't know if they were the kind of item that would get destroyed if you change houses or whatever.

It used to be that items that weren't untradable (ie., you could put them in a trade window) would be allowed on the MB after the first patch following the event putting them in the game. That policy changed with 3.2 (was it 3.1?), along with enabling event gear to be put in the armoire immediately.

What old seasonal furnishings? The "Market Prohibited" tag has only existed since 3.2, less than a month ago. We've only had one (completed) seasonal event since then, and its only furnishing was Untradeable as well as Market Prohibited.

(Actually, I was kind of wondering about that new "Market Prohibited" tag, as it generally seems redundant. I've yet to come across anything that's tradeable but market prohibited.)

It exist longer, but was invisible before 3.2

example:

Empty Twinkleboxes / Sheep Dolls / Hard Rice Cakes / Stuffed Qiqirn / Starlight Wreath / Star-topped Starlight Sentinel / Moon-topped Starlight Sentinel / Sun-topped Starlight Sentinel / Snowman / Empty Gift Boxes / Kadomatsu / Starlight Interior Wall / Flame of Passion

Those items were tradeable since they came ingame during their events (Starlight 2014 - Valentines Day 2015), but sellable in the market board only since 2.55 (end of mach 2015)

I could be totally out to lunch but I was sure you couldn't trade the Paissa Doll's, which is why I added a row of them to my retainer. Now I can trade and sell them via the MB (no restrictions).
