Path of Exile 1 Gameplay Help and Discussion - Having some trouble with Item values and stash space - Forum

So, I only have 4 stash tabs and I’m running out of space. And even now that I think I finally understood what is a valuable item and what isnt and also understood how the overall trading system of the game works, I can’t really sell all the items I think are valuable at the same speed that I get new ones and the result is obvious. My question is, how do you guys deal with your stash? Are these items below valuable (alchs and chaos worhty)? +I use procurement and Poe.trader of course.

Ask yourself: If you are getting these items so fast that you're accumulating them... why would anyone want to buy them? They could just go out and get them too. Your items are good. But they're nothing that people wouldn't get on their own. That's why you have a hard time selling them. Up your criteria for what is "good" to what is "unlikely to be found by someone in a reasonable amount of time". It's that stuff that sells.

You have the point, what do you recommend me to do with these then? Maybe re-checking what I think is actually "unlikely to be found by someone in a reasonable amount of time" and just vendor off the rest?

imo only skull trail and dread spur boots are sellable (not quickly). you can vendor all other stuff with no regrets	Posted by DarkWap#6134 on Jan 27, 2016, 9:37:03 AM Quote this Post
For general advice on judging what items are worth selling, I'll quote myself from another thread... " What stats are required...the short of it: weapons used for dealing damage need %increased physical damage + flat physical damage + attack speed. Body armours and shields need high defense (ES/armour/evasion) + good life roll + resists. Other stuff needs mostly high life + high resists though boots need movement speed as well, and helmets can be good if they have very high defense (ES/armour/evasion). If one of these stats is missing sometimes you can master-craft it on. You can see what is considered high for a certain stat at http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Affix - 25% increased attack speed is great but 25% increased physical damage is very poor. There are some stats which are almost always useless and can be ignored: accuracy, flat life regeneration, stun recovery, damage reflect. But: be prepared that even with careful choosing ninety percent of items you identify will be vendored, and almost all the rest will only be worth up to five Chaos...a body armour with 1.9k armour and a high life roll but little resists won't even sell for two Chaos. A good weapon base with high physical damage (increased and flat) but no increased attack speed (and no way to mastercraft it) isn't sellable either. If you're not sure about the worth of an item search for similar ones on poe.trade and price/vendor accordingly. Also pick up 6-sockets (vendor for Jewellers). I don't bother selling anything for less than four Chaos, taking 30 seconds to a minute for a trade (when in a map) is not worth the Chaos or Alch you earn. With Talisman already lasting over a month, it will slowly turn into Standard with regard to trades, meaning unless you got not only the right stats on an item - see above - but also nearly the highest rolls available for those stats you won't earn much per item. I still get to sell some 5-10 Chaos rares in Standard from time to time (as a casual player) but most of my currency comes from Alteration Shards and Jewellers plus a semi-valuable unique every three months. scroogetemplar / scroogewitch / scroogemarauder Freezing Pulser (safe + affordable): https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1529856	Posted by scrooge999#0080 on Jan 27, 2016, 9:53:45 AM Quote this Post
This is what I generally do (Although I admit this may take a little more stash space than you have available): 1 - Set up tabs with buyouts of say 1 chaos, 3 chaos, 5 chaos 2 - Fill up sell tabs with half decent gear, even if its not amazing (like you have already) 3 - Now that my tabs are full, when I find anything else I want to sell I choose the appropriate tab and replace an item there, then I move that item to the lower buyout tab. 4 - I continue this cascading effect to keep moving my non-selling items to lower prices and eventually vendor anything that gets bumped out of my lowest tab. For example: Spoiler I find: I figure these are worth 5c I notice my 5c tab is full, but I am selling these for 5c: I'm also selling these for 1 chaos. I then vendor the "rage trail", move the "pandemonium stride" to my 1 chaos tab, and place the "dread track" in my 5 chaos tab. This keeps my item stock recycling and limits the amount of stash space I allow to tie up for holding trading inventory at any time. You could do it with sections of stash tabs too if you don't have much space to work with, but this would be hard to babysit since procurement/acquisition wouldn't then automatically be able to set the buyouts for you (since different buyouts in same tab).
