I do not think the Dragoon Dirks will devalue as much as the mino axes did,
since they are lore items you can not lug 20 of em to Qeynos to sell :)
Also I have always resold my combine weapons on Feydwer and for MORE then I
bought them. When people have whined about it I would point out that I am
saving them at least two hours of time round trip, plus they do not have to
journey through very hostile territory (esp for combine blunt and piercing
weapons).
