I'm a teir 5 alchy wanting to experiment and play around with poisons (and maybe if lucky sell a few in the process, but we all know demand is not there at this time). So I search a lil on sony forums for what jewelers might feel is a fair deal to do 20 loam combines (for 50 to 60 vials) and read most find 5 pristine inks (20 combines, 15 which are hard) OR 80tempers (20 combines)to be agreed there.

When going to offer jewelers this type of deal and even a bit extra they say they will contact me if not busy or emergency AFK never to be heard from again. This makes me think these offers are not acceptable, but have no idea what is. I'm already putting in allot of work making the pristine loams, pristine oils, pristine resins for a jeweler to make the vials with (thus no cost to them but the 6c fuel) and trying to pay fairly for services rendered. And then making the "payment items" also take time and resources. I'm just a lil at a loss of what to do and hoping you good folks here could offer some advice! Thanks in advance.

Most likely they just forgot. Intentionally or not I can't say.

I traded with a guy once who had to be reminded every step of the way :rolleyes: .
-> Hiya, mind trading an amount of 'X' for an amount of 'Y'??
<-Sure.
(sometime later)
->Hiya, I got your amount of 'X' for you.
<-Uhm.. What was that for?
->Well, a trade for an amount of 'Y'??
<-Oh, aha, sure.. I'll still have to make the 'Y' though (polite way of saying he forgot ;) )
->Hey, NP, I can wait.
(sometime later)
<-Hiya, I made a stack of 'Y', wasn't that you who was asking for it?
->Yeah, got a moment? Have to get to the bank to pick it up.
<-OK, what did we agree on? Money?
->No, a stack of 'X'.
<-Oh, ok.

/sigh
Oh well, some people are a bit busy making hordes of stuff for others.
Gets confusing sometimes.

Contact me in game, I will be happy to make vials or glasses for you in exchange for alchy juices. I have not been on Bellas much lately, I am working on a tailor to help the guild make bags and to help my cousin who is an armorcrafter, his name is Snorky and I will probably be online as him most evenings. Send me a tell and I will log Bellas on and make you whatever you need.

Thanks so much guys for the responses! I did find a jeweler finally who liked this offer and Bellas you offer of assistance also makes me extremely thrilled (I'll be contacting you soon). Was feeling a lil overwhelmed having everything sitting in bank waiting for a jeweler and forgot how few teir 5 peeps there actually are. But more are joining the ranks everyday *cheers*. Now if only the word spreads that teir 5 poisons can be fun to use I'll be the happiest Alchy on Norrath! *grins and hugs all*

I ususally ask for exact this payment you suggested when I'm asked to do vials :)

I think it's a fair trade when we're basing on combines since both need to be pristine and both are low XP combines ;)

The best trade I ever got was 60 bottle/vials combines for 2 stacks of inks.
