which supplies/how much gold?

Not sure what golden pearls are currently going for but I have 4 of them for you, if you want/need them.

Gold - what's fair.
Supplies- a small amount/whatever will help with the last 4 molds I have growing, which are all over 50%

Edit: Correction, the bulb is at 35% and since the game hasn't had a good pay out via shovles/poles for me, I've just been buying agents off the broker or buying them with sun tokens from the fest shop. Regardless it's been a gamble and I never seem to get enough of whichever agent the game wishes to random generate at any given time ahahaha

So generally with pearls and the like pricing depends on two factors - how much they cost to upgrade vs the value to the people involved? This is how I look at pricing for things like Pearls:

goldens cost 50k to upgrade from 10 regs. Now someone who has 0 pearls to upgrade is apt to be willing to pay the 50k or more but a player with reg pearls is going to be looking for someone who is selling for under 50k by at least a little cause they are trying to save gold. I fall into the latter category - many reg pearls + bit skint on gold rn.

So if you are selling pearls that you got from clams and genuinely aren't going to use you can price them below 50k and still be coming out ahead. If you upgraded them and then decided you needed the gold as a seller you prolly want at least your 50k if not a bit above to compensate for the regulars which idk what going rate on those are because I usually have a *pile* of the base upgrades like that each fest. BUT you can trade all the sculpting things for tokens which I use as a "minimum value" rn low end on tokens is 250gp each and reg pearls trade for 3x tokens each so I would use the baseline of 750gp each so 57.5k would be my "baseline" for a golden rn.

The sculpting agents rn are lowest price 4.5k, but 90 avg is 5.3k and current average is 7.1k That is likely to climb as we get further from the last set of boards and supplies are drained since the sculpts only grow when they are tended + last boards ends when zone ends so everyone is likely scrambling to finish up as much as possible. So if you do not have the time to grind the zone for tools and drops and you are near dead out this is pretty suck ngl.

I have a middling amount of agents BUT I am tending two people's plots so they get fundle completion so I am loathe to just sell those outright. HOWEVER they are both down to the last couple sculpts so it's only like 2-3 agents every unit of time + you don't have very many sculptures either so what I could offer is: We settle on a price for the pearls and a value for agents and I will tend your sculptures at least until I expend that value's worth of agents on them/they are done and if I end up using less agents than the agreed upon price I will pay you the balance in gold?
Basically like say we call the price per pearl 60k x4 so 240k in value and we agree the value of the agents is 6k a piece (I chose these values for tidy math alone) so I would owe you at least 40 agents worth of sculpt pokings in this example? (generally I am around from like 9-10pmish game time to at least 7amish game usually longer) this will free you up of having to worry about the rng of the agents as well cause yeah that has been a pain lol.

Would you take a new Puff mold for your Maj Lup?

I appreciate all the explanation/values given to everything!

The pearls came from clams so I don't have gold invested in them via upgrading the mundane into gold. I can appreciate te 60k value but since I'm in no need of them, and the fest is winding down, I'd be fine/happy with going around 40 or 45k so save you some gold. If that works for you mathematically?

I'm also happy with you using the agents you have to aid in sculpting my last four molds, as payment, and especially during those hours since I'm usually not around during them.

I'll send the pearls over to you in a minute. [:

Unfortunately not at this point, I think I am only looking for a maj qi,t pearls, prismas or gold/dia for it

Awesome, Thank you :D (I was worried I was being a little extra there lol) Yeah I can work out the math, I managed to get one round of them so far.
Are they for your fundle?

(sorry I have been like real bad about thinking about replies to things and then you know not actually sending the replies lately aaaa adhd lol)

(you're totally fine)

No, unfortunately I knew I wouldnt have proper time for a fundle. These are just for fun/personal collection.

I appreciate that! A
I'm now down to only 6 vials of seawater anymore. I can never seem to keep the sand or sun lol and I've spent more than I care to admit on stuff for this fest already. I have nothing but respect for everyone doing the fest so this isn't meant to be rude, genuinely impressed, but I cannot imagine how much others have spent doing fundles and such.

(truly all good. No worries at all. I relate very much)

Ah, okay, thank you for letting me know! ^^
(I don't have a maj qit anymore and am as good as broke xD)

Hi, would you take 150k for the aged sky dancer ligh mold?
