Item Inflation Information

[Aitoyoru]

Is there any way I can see a graph or something on the expected outcome of item inflation. Like, anywhere I could see how much the dark star will probably be in a year or something.

Also, does any inflation expert have a guess on how fast The dark star, Fire Flower and Flame sword will go up? Can anyone tell me anything? Because I have some items I want to sell and one I want to buy, and I want to know when to stike and sell/buy.

So far as graphs and things, there's http://gem.gaiacast.com/ - Gaian Economy Monitor. I dunno if they do projections, but you can see how the prices on items have fluctuated on the MP since their release date. Along with that graph, there's one that shows MP fluctuation throughout the day.

On tektek.org, they have similar graphs (again, dunno if they do projections), but you can compare items (like, MCs and the letter they came from, for example) on the same graph. So, if you wanted to, you could compare your items there with past, similar MCs and see when might be a good time to buy.

Just general info that I'm sure you know already - if you're looking to buy an MC and don't mind hanging on to it for a while, buy it ASAP because the price will generally do nothing but rise over time...even if it drops right after you buy it xp

Not that I'm an inflation expert, though sweatdrop (the Chain of Command fiasco being a case in point xD)

just look at the popularity rate of the item the release month, then see how fast the prices go up in the market to decide what to keep/sell

Yeah the only way would be to monitor the gaia exchange and the market place and see what rises over time and what seems to be dropping then make your move when the time sees right.

but i am also not a expert sad

Thank you much. GEM is very helpful. But it makes my worried. The flame sword it going up fast! But I'm sure if I buy it soon, it'll go down like, 10,000 the next day.

If I'm not mistaken, TekTek has some economy tools too.

But within a month, it could have gone up again by 20k. razz
