Many thanks for your information it greatly helped seeing it. Your
experiences seem to be similar to others I have seen. However, I would like
you and other gnome tinkerers in your situation to take into consideration
us other gnomes who are trying to tinker. As you stated in your post you
started off selling Aqualungs at 500pp and this barely covered costs. I
myself am at this stage and am trying to sell my aqualungs. However, I have
come accross a problem. As there are 2 or 3 tinkerers who have got to the
rebreather stage on my server they have are selling their aqualungs at 400pp
and I find that to sell any of my aqualungs I also have to sell them at
400pp.

I realise this keeps the number of tinkerers and so competition on the
servers down, however, we are fellow gnomes and not many of us are even
trying tinkering. Have a thought for us who have already put thousands of
plat into the skill only to be penalised as we don't have as much
money/don't play as much as some others.

This post is not aimed at Flintnilf but at Tinkerers in general. I am
actually on Cazic Thule and have more of a problem as even when I get to
rebreather stage they are being sold for 2500pp and one of the higher level
tinkerers told me off for trying to sell Spyglasses for 80pp and trying to
give tinkerers a bad name but this is the only way I can make any money out
of the skill.

I'm not saying lets rip ppl off. I'm saying we have put alot of money and
time into our skill. Lets at least get some of that money back.
