That is the good point of not having a price history. People will always find profit, carfters will always find buyers for overpriced gears, farmers will always find buyers for overpriced cristals.
I sell all the shards and cristals I get from grinding, and only that. Wasting a bazar slot for gear or random crap that sell for <100k in 4 days is totally not worth it. I NPC all the gears I bought before rank 30, because shit doesn't sell fast enough. I sell Wind, Fire, Thunder cristals for 4,000g , wind shards for 400g, Earth and Fire shards for 250g and others for ~150g. I am aware it is an excessive price, however, they do sale insanely fast for that price. Means some crafters out there do have tons of money; obviously not everyone will afford them for that price, but you still have the option to farm them, shards are the most common drops of the game. And if I happen to have too many shards I can't sell (like 2,000+ , usually thunder, ice, or water), I just lower the price to 100g per and it is guarranteed to sell withing the next few hours, making poor crafters happy.
