I know, he asks for expensive stuff. And I did have the sP for it. But Saggi not once gave back half of what the items cost, leaving me out of pocket by at least 500k sP. Is he designed to take your sP and leave you with didley squat? Because he has never once offered me a decent return. Has anyone else noticed this?
I don't really have a problem with Saggi, usually paying attention to the rarity of the asked for items makes sure I make a decent return.
Every now and then I get less than what I paid. It's better when I restock the items.
I generally just don't buy any items he asked for when they all equal more than 150k but I'm paranoid.
I find the only time he seems /nice/ is during his weekend special quests and sometimes not even during that. I've lost out on plenty during his quests but on rare occasions he can surprise you... just doesn't happen often enough.
You definitely should set a limit to what you want to spend per quest. Since his rewards are commonly around 130k to 150k (though vary from 50k to around 230k) you should make the total you spend per quest somewhere lower than that or else you'll definitely lose out in the end. With a limit you'll usually make a profit of several hundred thousand even if you only manage to do 4-5 quests out of his 15 each day!
Thanks for the tip, I'll do that from now on.
I don't know about some of these tips- since I started following some user's advice and checking rarity before buying I've gotten >500k returns once in a blue moon. Generally a good tip is to only go above your comfort zone on Super Rare items, mostly above r90. you can get regular 300k returns on <200k spends like that. Once you have the hang of it you get in a good groove. However, the past two days hes been paying me half what I spend, and that's even on r96-98 items. Even the r99 ones are a tough sell lately. I don't know if the random number generator just landed me way low on the pay scale or if they're tweaking him but it's making me very sad. :/
EDIT: I just finished him up for the day and I don't think I had a payout over 160k, not for lack of trying- the only ones worth doing were the 4k and 12k low-end type items.Very sad that one of the best sP earners became a total racket on me.
I just set a limit and stick to it....seems to work pretty well for me!
I check item rarities and I have limits on what I'll spend, depending on those rarities and how many items he asks for.
Normally I make a very good profit this way, but the last few days he's been a total... Ugh. I can't remember the last time I saw him being this fucking stingy. I've taken some nasty losses, and barely make a profit when I make any at all. :(
It's so bad I'm afraid to take a gamble on the quests that normally pay out big.
yeah today he's ask for a total of 200k+. of course i skip until after a few quest. then i decided to do, he gave me only 150k. then all quests afterwards costing less than 150k but the rewards are as low as 23k. what a total douche.
[edit] my roommate come running cause he thought i'm losing on some online game since i'm cursing so much. today i got caught playing online pet site because of saggi!
