Buying Linen/Steel/MBC(Bulk) for Gold(/Silver/Iron)

[kralmir]

normal rate is 1% chance to get gold, at full industry thats still 2%, meaning half the loads in a smelter are empty and half will contain 1 bar on average.

1 nugget. nugget.

From what I've heard from people who have done this for long periods of time (mine gold/silver that is:
Silver = 1.2% ; Gold = 0.8%

At full industry that's only 1.6% chance, not fun.

For a nugget, a single nugget.

I'm actually considering increasing my prices (Except to those that have already expressed interest oralready sold me goods).

Already got 2 chests of carrot cake ^ ^;

Are you digging 50 ore for nugget?

I am dragging 200 leaves, 50 eggs, boiling 50 cocoons, making 10 threads from 100 filaments for one silk napkin. And i can`t do all this any time i wish. I should do it all in right time. So don`t tell me about «a lot of work»

The chance of 'finding a gold mine is low enough. I say this because the way people have been responding in general when I say 2 chests of carrot cake is 'Oh my god I actually have to work if I want gold?! This guy just sits back and rakes it in and expects me to slave away over an oven for carrot cake? FUCK THAT'.

Realistically finding a gold mine is hard enough and requires luck as well, then not only that but you also do indeed have to work to get said gold.

I'm not saying it's harder than what I'm asking for, that's the idea. I'm not going to say to you "Well, I can get 1 gold nugget in 30minutes, so I'll trade you 30minutes of linen cloth", no, since gold is hard to find and rare it's valued higher.

If people don't want to put in the :effort: to trade for gold then they don't really want it. I've been on the other side of this to the point where I traded 100 bricks for 1 cast iron bar at one time, and you don't whine about the rate, you trade, be happy you get a chance.

I'm not sure of anyone else offering gold nuggets for things as easy to obtain such as DDDs, RoBs, etc. Yes it's a pain in the ass to make them, but that's the idea. I wouldn't WANT anything easy to make I'd rather make it myself.

My prices are actually low when you consider what these foods would cost in other metals.

As far as I know there isn't, and your prices are fair. So don't listen to the haters, this is a good deal and you'd be mad not to take it if you needed gold for thanes as a hunting char.

Added a few natural resources, since I've gotten a few messages looking to pay in them I figure I'll state what I want since I won't say no to qualities like those.

Just thought I'd point out that with your current prices, a given quantity of milk actually gets you twice as much gold if you don't bother to take the extra time (and it's a lot of extra time) to go to midnight, as while you require half again as many slices of cheese for brodgar blue, it cuts into three slices instead of one. Four chests of brodgar blue is 144 cheeses, and 48l of milk and would get you two nuggets, while 48l of milk into midnight would take over twice as long, and only get you one large chest worth, and one nugget. Might want to pay more for midnight or less for brodgar blue or you're likely not to get any midnight sales at all.

I must be the luckiest guy ever because I get like 1.2 nuggets per smelter (sample size 60-70 smelters).

Thanks for the tip. Really just had MBC for show, but I had indeed forgot the difference in slices.

I am not hater. and i am agree that 2 chests of carrot cakes is good price. Also i agree with 3 lowQ steel. But price in cheese is not good.

I will buy for steel, but if you want cheese too, make your price bit lower.
