Price Check for Herbs

Asao

I've decided to start leveling herbalism on an alt, but not potion making. What is the selling prices of herbs?

Base -
Bloody -
Sunlight -
Mana -
Gold -
White -
Mandrakes -

Well can tell you what I usually pay for them:

Base - Don't buy. Get them easily myself
Bloody - 200-300
Sunlight - up to 600
Mana - 300-400
Gold - 300-400
White - Not Ingame
Mandrakes - Not Ingame

I am a herbalist and potion maker but need thousands of herbs for potion making so it lowers the amount I can pay for them. To most mana herbs are worth more because they are used in the G1 quests but Sunlight is much harder to find.

I'm an Herbalist and a Potion Maker, and these are the prices that I would pay someone else for herbs (essentially only for the convenience of not having to harvest them myself, which can take forever, lol). All gold prices refer to the amount I would pay for a stack of 10 herbs.

Basic - 100 (at most)
Bloody - 300-500 (depending on how desperate I am for Pots)
Sunlight - 200-400 (Don't really go through Stamina Pots that fast...)
Mana - 300-600 (depending on the market, and how many enchanters are around)
Golden - 600 (but you can probably get more out of someone with no AP in Herbalism, because they can't really get them on their own)

White and Mandrake - What are these even used for right now?

Prices seem fair. I'll try to find you in game once I start stocking up.

Oops, I guess white and mandrake are not in game yet. Aren't those prices low for stacks of 10?

They are a bit low, but not too far from the fair price. If you consider how much you can sell 1 potion for, a 100 hp potion can sell for maybe 420 - 500, if you're paying close to that per herb like Orestes (i think he's saying per herb, not stack?) theres no point.

for stacks of 10, this is what i would pay (i only buy by stacks of 10 since i offer deals on buying in bulk, buying individual herbs is nto worth my time and i would give a very low price):
base: don't buy unless i'm lazy, if i do, 200g/10
mana: don't buy, prices too inflated due to g1 + enchanting also needing them. I would offer 2000/10 though, but people often sell 1000 EACH... crazy.
bloody: 1500/10
sunlight: rather pick them myself for exp, don't buy yet until i get to the point where i need a lot.

Orestes

Nope, I was indeed referring to stacks of 10. The reason the prices I listed were low is because that's how much I would pay for them, not necessarily how much one could reasonably charge. As I said, I have the Herbalism skill myself, so buying herbs would only be worth my time if they were cheap or I was extremely lazy.
The reason I posted in the first place is because I think it may be a common problem you might encounter... it makes more sense for Potion Makers to learn how to pick their own herbs than it does to buy them from somebody else. So, you might have a hard time finding buyers at high prices, or you might find it easy to get people to pay... I'm assuming it will all depend on the nature of the exact mixture of players on each server/channel.
In any instance, good luck! ^_^

I always sell my herbs for 100/Base 500/Mana 300/Bloody 100/Sunlight if I get them. Just an idea.

another good thing to do is see if any potion makers will make the potions for you if you bring them the herbs, if i didn't have my potion making character that's what i would be doing.

Mana herb - 500-600 each (mana potions 50/100 are rare, enchanters, lvl up potion)
Bloody - 300 each (leveling up potion)
Sunlight - 500-800 each (rare, leveling up potion, also many people need these for entrust burn)

golden herbs are basically useless right now, need higher ranks before remedy potions have reasonable success rate.
