PS4 NA - Why are skellies selling for 250k+ ?

WarpigFunk

Is there like a premium on Animus stones and Bones or something?

I'd buy one right now for like 100-125k - but some of these traders are at like 3-400k for skelly and 800k for robust. ... the ****?

The lowest I've ever listed one for is $200k. The animus stone costs me about $150k. Then $8k for the Kuta, $3k for the bone, plus $15k for the other junk in it. That's $176k in costs.

If I list for $200k I get $184 from the sale. That's $8k profit, but doesn't pay squat for having learned the recipe to make those, and if it doesn't sell I'm out all that money. It's a risky item to make and list, which is why people want more for it.

That makes sense- I had no idea Animus stones were priced that high

You also have to consider the cost of writ vouchers needed for the original skeleton recipe along with the mats needed to craft it. There is value in putting in the resources and time to acquire the recipe and be able to craft the skeleton for others - plus the mats it takes to create them.
