What website were you gettin the prices from?
IGE, playerauctions and gamepal seem to be the biggest. I did find a couple good deals private party, but nothing under a grand for what we were looking for. We decided to go with Vanguard and pre-ordered it. The wife never liked WoW, but she won't shut up about Vanguard and we haven't even played it yet.

Lots of tempting toons, but too damn much for them, like this one from playerauctions:

lvl 75 Beastlord ~1280AAs - full Anguish geared (+augs) & epic 2.0 orb - 12000+hps/11500+mana unbuffed - uber DPS - Original Owner!!!
$1,900.00

This auction is for a male level 75 vah shir Beastlord with well spend over 1280AAs. This is an amazing character with awesome DPS, he can easily solo, join any group or high end guild. He is flaged for anguish and has all important items from there. Buffed he easily breaks 15k+ hps with huge AC along with this nice AC selfbuff cklicky. This char is so much fun to play

This Account was created and leveled by us. No third person ever had the login information. No warps or other hacks were used to powerlevel this character.
Wow, wonder why account prices are going back up so much? Mayhaps it's time to sell my accounts...of course I'd end up spending all the money on booze.
I'd like to see things from your point of view but I can't get my head that far up my ass.

I was thinking the same thing except a really big bag of weed 8)

4 accounts, all with 65+ toons on the Cazic (/mourn brell) server, including an epic'd cleric & chanter.

The Necro (lvl 67 I think) account might be worth something for nostalgia value, as it has a level 2 female high elf enchanter named Marissa on the Cazic server :shock:

350 bucks for all of them if anyone's interested, and with a promised screen capture in PoK of "Marissa says out of character: OMG WTF IMPOSTER !" I'll even knock 50 bucks off. Otherwise we'll probably delete them all in celebration of Vanguard.

Nope, but you should be able to see the toons on the eqplayers site. Here's some info. I'm guessing at the levels cause it's been so long.

Account 1 (original owner)

- Markkuss, 67 high elf cleric (epic 1.0)
- Freecare, 66 or 67 barbarian shaman
- Fanarea, 46 wizard

Account 2 (original owner)

- Mistdydreams, 67 vah shir beastlord.
- Forestheart, 56 druid
- Some 56 mage

Account 3 (given to me - original owner hated game and retired at lvl 21)

- Unclean, 67 DE necro.
- Varinor 56 DE shadow knight
- Marissa, lvl 2 naked HE enchanter (created on this account when I renamed original)
- Spellemporium vendor. Had probably 200k in sellables last I remember.

Account 4 (bought from original owner)

- Sparkle (renamed from Marissa), 70 HE chanter (epic 1.0)

All were top-end bazaar geared at time of retirement (spent over 2 million plat just on necro's gear), no flags to speak of except the chanter, who is time flagged and has a couple pieces of gear from there if I remember.

WoW:
Windrunner:
Aronis, 60 nelf hunter
Lucianna, 48 nelf drood
Plus seven mid 30 somethings
Uther:
Hildegardt, 31 dwarf warrior
Boulderfist:
Miamarrow, 31 undead mage
Cowtow, 4 tauren drood

Account canceled and effectively expired Saturday 13th due to boredom and everything essentually the same where ever you go. It was fun for a while but eventually becomes mindless drudgery. Why so many PvP realms? They are not needed. You can run around flagged as much as you like on a PvE realm. PvP realms and battlegrounds are just a means to distract players from the lack of content.

I won't be selling or giving the account away. I have nothing but contempt for those (player base)that buy/sell accounts, items, and gold/plat. My EQ account is not for sale or give away either and I'll never login again. They are games! They are not real and should have no connection to the real world economy other than paying to play. I don't blame the Chinese farmers, Chinese workshops, or even IGE, the billion dollar business. It's almost a 100% fault of the American player's greed and laziness.

If this trend of MMO self centered greed becomes worse, I predict a backlash and a demand for more host-your-own multiplayer rpgs to get away from the ignorant masses. Eventually the WoW mania will subside leaving a small nutjob hardcore much like EQ. Big money for an EQ account? BS! You would have to be stupid or crazy! EQ is old and outdated, however I would give EQ recognition as the king of the MMOs even though it never had anything close to the population of WoW. EQ put MMOs on the map.

Take a look at the "Market share by MMO" pie chart. It's has not been updated for six months and I would expect smaller shares for the aged and minor markets.
