ok, on the 3 nations AH, all melon pies are priced at 2.5k a stack...

now.. problem is... how do people produce @ that price without a) growing/farming ingredients b) undercutting

to me, this is outrageous, the cost to produce a stack is ~2.6-2.7k at the very least without creating my ingredients, i buy all my stuff @ regional vendors and fire crystals go for 3.3k a stack....

any1 can prove me wrong?? or am i just caught in an unlucky situation???

funny thing is.. Jeuno Melon pies are worth ~3.6k a stack (probably dropping) which is reasonable...

Sounds like Cooking is becoming like most other crafts in that it's ging to be tough to find something you can make money on unless you can HQ them at a decent rate.

Alchemy has been the same for me in that I could make something, but it only sells for less than I made it worth.(Unless I farmed the ingredients) Ethers seem to be the exception where I can make them for 1k each, but they sell for around 2k or slightly under. Holy water was a good source of income too when the Light Crystals were around 3k, but as of about a week ago, they were going for 4k+, which completely took out the profit without HQ's.

For cooks that relied on Kabobs & other items for income, this recent update has certainly made them look other ways to come up with additional income. I'm sure that there are other items out there, but they may not be as profitable as others were before.

well... previously, only 8 stacks of buffalo meat has ever been sold @ ~10k a stack... now 4 stacks were sold for 50k a stack... pretty crazy isnt it?? guess the guys who bid the 1st few stacks got lucky in making a nice 7k a synth...
