    Black Belt

    There's a drama nut in my old linkshell (who will remain nameless) that loves to bring it up to everyone that I bought a BB item for 100k, like 6 months ago. Just wanna see what people actually think about this, answer away, and feel free to post any comments. :D

    I'll put it like this:

    You got one of the best endgame waist slots for mnk, and all you payed was 100k for 1 item? You sir, got one hell of a deal!

    Many of the shells I've seen here charge upward of a mil for one item, depending on which it is, and that's in the current economy. 100k isn't just a bargain, it's a steal.

    Seriously, people here on Pandy will pay about 20M for a Speed Belt. Perhaps less, I don't really window shop at our local bazaar mall. Considering the stats BB give, 1M for each item is still a fairly good bargain. Especially considering it'll probably be faster for some to farm the gil and buy the item off a LS, instead of joining a linkshell, waiting your turn to lot one, and then pray you even get a Faf/Nid claim.

    To the OP: your LS mate is being a sandy vagoo, introduce him/her to the nearest tube of vagisil and point them towards the nearest pharmacy.

    Re: Black Belt

    I got all my pieces from my shell, but at 100k you would have to be retarded to pass up the chance to buy an item. Also just curiosity's sake which piece did you get for that price?

    I don't understand what would be the problem? You don't do endgame, so you buy a pice of endgame armour? It's no different than buying something off the AH.

    For 100k? I could care less if its a CFH'd, GM'd, RMT'd, POS'd to Selbina, etc'd NM. And my MNK is 3.

    P.S. 100k each item to make it worth losing my lol e-rep.

    only 100k?

    I think whoever is bringing it up is jealous they couldn't get one. If its a group of people either they're just giving you shit or retarded, or giving you retarded shit.

    My last bb items will probably cost me around 2 million so yeah if you can get it for 100k go for it.

    Re: Black Belt

    Considering how little Adamantoise is camped on Day 1,2,3, I'm surprised people pay 1mil or more for the egg. 100k is good, but anything expensive just isn't worth it when you can sneak in there as MNK and WHM or something and kill it aprx 3 times a week until egg drops. If you're restricted by time then it's understandable.
