I always check every one of my favorite guild marketplaces when looking for an item unless it's dirt cheap. I have lost out on an item or two while hopping between zones, but in general I've saved a ton by doing that 🤷♂️
Bouncing around from city to city, town to town has found me some awesome deals on really good sets. Especially on console where it's tedious to price your wares if you're not familiar with trading, people just post without really researching it's value.
can confirm. I flip tons of stuff on xbox EU for good profits. Seriously most of my millions come from buy in shit spot / sell in top spot. (flipping). Gotta now the markets though, and bring time...
I'm on Xbox, primarily EU but I have a character on NA. What baffled me when I first got on NA was dues. Not a single guild I'm in on EU has dues and I'm in 3 big ones with traders in alliance capitals, Belkhart, Vivec City. We have voluntary raffles and donations. That's an easier ceiling to break than being a new player on a NA server and being faced with dues right from the get go. Man I just levelled to level 10 where do you think I will be able to find 10k for a due while I need money for bag space upgrade, bank upgrade, stuff to research, stuff for writs. Then there's the economy which is nuts because everything costs an arm and half of a leg.
I’m new to the Xbox server came over from PlayStation after a small break, one thing I have noticed on the traders in MH traders or just traders in general is that there’s not much on them. I went to all traders just last night looking for Wrath and only two of them had any pieces. I went looking for bi stat magicka food and found recipes but hardly any stacks of premade. I guess the sale priority is more so on motif and such, it’s just strange to me that at least so far common purchase items like ingredients are lacking on this server.
I did the deal hunt for multiple items for friends lol. My friends and i love to try and see who found the cheapest item😅. Also I've seen so many of the rune box pieces from the forgotten ways lately 😂there are so many people trying to find that banner on ps na😂😂😂
Actually, if you have a trading guild, you can capture the keep for thst guild. There will be an additional line when you speak to vendor to by some balistas. When the keep is yours, you and any other players now see another additional line in dialogue. Now your guild trade stock is available for all the players of your alliance. Ba-da-boom. Each guild can have only one keep.
I actually do go from trader to trader in each zone each day. Yes TTC is one option. But at the same time, a deal could be listed anywhere at anytime. Depending on how many deals I find in a session, I can get through all the overland traders in roughly 3 to 4 hours.
I am in three trading guilds. One in Vivec, one in Eldenroot and one in Summerset. And it's pretty amazing how much better the trader in Vivec is. For example, I recently placed the Perfect Roe with all three for the same price (relatively low). Sold in Vivec within 3 minutes. In Eldenroot the next day and in Summerset two days later.
You're close but not correct on most counts. Honestly Arttea covered this topic far more accurately imo. The zone does matter but one should be considering the customer in each instance. Who is shopping there and why? Would they be willing to pay a convenience tax for this item? I can sell potions and food in Wayrest for more than I could in a thieves refuge because it's convenient. Those people are on their way to an undaunted dungeon and just need to grab something quick. I can sell mats in Vivec for a little more too. In other words it's not just foot traffic - you need to consider who they are and why they're there. But to your best point though, you should definitely be considering who YOU are as a seller and how your playstyle and goals match with the guild and customer base in that area. Love your vids Jake, no disrespect intended, just happen to disagree.
Yes, Arttea made great gold videos. However, hers are very PC specific, as that is her platform. Jake is on xbox (thankfully) and makes GREAT videos that are occasionally xbox specific. Trading, of course, is very platform oriented, due to add-ons. Keep up the good work, Jake!
You able to do a video or have a resource for the current bidding prices on guild trader spots? Not looking to troll or run any guild out of their spot, just looking for estimates on what current bids are looking like these days.
I don't know what it is with yu NA dudes, but on xbox EU I have never, never never never, and would never, never never never, pay "dues". Seriously, I am a top trader and I create serious cashflow in top spot guilds. I pay taxes on sales and from time to time I donate. The guilds I am in are all top spot guilds (Mournhold / Elden Root) since years and I never payed anything for it besides sales tax and some donations. Never mandatory dues, and I never would. With the cashflow I create they should pay me to sell in their guild, seriously...
I prefer smaller guilds with no fees and just use ttc to list my items (generally) lower than the average prices
this vid is about console tho, does TTC work there?
@@raafmaaton website of TTC you can choose your platform and region to get prices
Taking your advice and joining paid guilds in major cities is the best thing I've done in ESO.
Just the video I needed, had no idea I could check what’s sold. This is game changing.
I’ll have to watch this again and pay attention more. Thanks
Would love to see a follow up going deeper into the traits and details of trading. Also, love your videos and informative content, Jake!!
Amazing job Jake, this was one of the most informative guild trader videos I've seen.
It's not only the content, but also the puns at the beginning that keep me coming back. Never EVER stop doing that 😂

Mournhold, grahtwood, belkarth, and Alinor are my top money making locations. Great vid thanks. I’m on console too ✌🏽

That pun was such a breath of 'fresh' air😁
I did not realize Platinum Dust was worth money. I do not have whatever expansion lets you craft jewelry, so I just sell it to the NPC merchants.
I love that hoodie.

The dues are weekly, for the better location usually you have to sell 500k minimum a week. Easy if you know what to sell.
im in a top trading guild on pc eu with a trader in mournhold, reaching the sales minimum is a piece of cake
I make a list throughout the week of everything I need to buy, then I spend one day going to as many traders as possible to find the best deals.
Schweet video! would love to know how much some of the guilds bid per week kinda ball park based on the area.
Between 200k - 20 mil on console
Be a billionaire and you may get a trader. If you bid high that is..
I'm PC biased..

Could you do a video on companion gear and what sells the best(assuming you haven't already)
Yep!

Ps4 market is whole different ball game than what I see on pc and Xbox videos lol
Great videos

Wha? I never knew this
@@poopikins go and have some PvP immediately.
Hey Jake do you have a guild on PS5?

I’m just here fishing for perfect roe. My rng is somehow better than everything else lol
Donkeydong🎉🎉🎉
Great vid but very console specific. On PC none of that matters because we just use Tamriel Trade Centre to find any item at the lowest price.
I am in three trading guilds.
One in Vivec, one in Eldenroot and one in Summerset.
And it's pretty amazing how much better the trader in Vivec is.
