There aren't exactly thousands of them available. Avg page goes for 30-35 on ps4, times 7, putting it at 210-245. Then another 30-50 for the annoyance of having to get all the parts and the tax putting you at 270-300 for the whole deal.
I checked around for about 30 minutes before finding one at all.0 -

✭✭✭✭Om xbox eu, pages go for like 20k sometimes. It's probably be better to find them seperate as people will sell duplicates for cheap.
If they go to the effort of pitting it together, they'll sell it for a standard price0 -

✭✭On PC NA, the complete recipe is only worth around 40-50k. Wondering why it's so much more expensive on Xbox.1 -

Could be simple supply and demand driven by lower populations on consoles or not enough people doing writs for the pages.PS4 Pro NA0 -

this is it there aren't many in game and so the price is sky high to try and get them via the supply demand economy stuff and whatnot0 -
Ja50nX✭✭✭I looked at the the ave price for pages, which is around 30k (210k for 7) then listed mine for 200k. It sold within 3 days so you could definitely get more than that.PS4 EU

No text chat for consoles players so its harder for them to trade. Most possibly don't even use voice chat so yeah basically its possibly a lot rarer then it is on pc, which has text chat which allows people to trade in zone chat.
I don' t really buy things from people very often, I mostly rp but yeah people use zone chat to trade these types of items the more people have this certain item the lesser the price is for people to buy it. Pc has all the benefits.
So basically with out text chat consoles don't really have much of an abilty to trade other then voice chat and guild stores. So yeah things cost more possibly because of this.
But thing is I don't know what it is like other then what other people have said because I play this on pc.

@bossdonut
Not sure what your point is here.
The price at which complete recipes are going for is essentially what they're worth - from a market perspective anyway. Going to three main cities (Mournhold, Belkarth and Wayrest) should tell you all you needed to know - it did for me when I was curious.
What a full recipe is worth in actual terms (benefit to the player) can be significantly less than this depending on the market prices of your console and server. For example, on PS4/EU a recipe is worth next to nothing in actual terms:
- If you were using it for earning gold then there's just no margin:
Ambrosia sells for 3.5-4k whereas Roe sells for 12-14k. If you wanted to source the Roe yourself you'd have to either farm for 2 hours (1hr bait and 1hr Roe) or buy the bait at 3k and farm the Roe for 1hr.
- if you were using it for XP then you'd be better off farming gold in a more lucrative way and buying Ambrosia outright.

✭✭Don't buy it, no one will need XP potions in the brotherhood DLC
I imagine there will always be a market for Psijic Ambrosia pots. Relatively cheap to make (mats cost small amount of in-game gold) and they significantly speed up the process of grinding Champion Points / VR levels.0 -

That's the point VR system goes away with the brotherhood DLC. And you don't really need to grind CPs. You will need to grind 1-50 which will take 5 pots at most. The demand will drop drastically.Edited by Didgerion on February 24, 2016 1:30AM0 -

Prices of roe are 9-10k on ps4 na, so you can make your money back. There are other ways to theoretically make more gold per hour, but ambrosia is a guaranteed seller. And they sell fast.
1 roe an hour at 3.5-4k per ambrosia nets you 6-7k profit per hour. Purple mats price should be negligible at this point on console for anyone serious about crafting. I've got 400 of each.0 -

Okay, let's assume a best case scenario with everything that you've given me:
Purchase costs:
- Ambrosia recipe = 210k
- 1x Roe = 9k
- Everything else = negligible
Income:
- Sales of Ambrosia = 16k (4x 4k per Ambrosia)
- (Less commission & listing price of ~10%) = 1.6k
Therefore, profit per batch = 5.4k
So you'd need to sell 38.8 batches (156 individual Ambrosias) just to break even on your initial outlay of the Ambrosia recipe.
That's a lot of time and as I say, hardly viable for someone wanting to start selling it for a source of income.

Which could be done very rapidly if roe is readily available and you have the capital to buy it. Longer if you farm yourself, but add 9k per batch.
With 3 traders up all the time that takes less than 24 hours to break even on.

24 hours, really?
How do you reckon Ambrosia will be affected by the removal of VRs?

✭✭I held out as long as I could, doing writs every day, hoping to get the pieces myself.
But as the days turned into months, the months into years, the years into decades, without getting a single scrap, my will failed and I bought the whole recipe for 35k - EU PC.
Since then I received four pieces (part 1 and part 2, both duplicated).
I haven't seen any since for years now, and I'm inclined to think they simply don't exist anymore...0 -

Because, Xbox is full of children pretty much. If someone tells you that Xbox ESO is dying then they are wrong. And I mean no offence by saying 'children'. I think kids playing games is great.
But anyway, my point, I have a blue tank and my go to town is the starting town for Daggerfall. It is ALWAYS booming with new players/characters. And everyone wants XP pots. XP potions sell for 3k-4K on Xbox EU.
And, there is a giant mega trading guild on Xbox eu. If you play on it, you know which one, and the leaders of that guild use their unlimited cash to control pricing. It's quite genius really. It is their economy, and if you undercut them, they just buy your stuff and re-sell it.0 -

I somehow managed to get one piece everyday for a week on one character. I was able to trade up for the full recipe.
It just shows RNG works. Personally, I've never picked up a nirn thing from craglorn. It all balances out sonewhere.0
