That seems like a depressing purchase. I don't really pay attention to RIGS or new items.

I'm glad you update me on the world though xD

Getting more than half your money back is considered good with most rigs XD

luck is always really low on these things.

Is the reason it's not considered a bad loss the fact that the items' prices will go up over time? Or is that just wishful thinking?

Its considered not a bad loss because usually I get less than 50% of the bundles worth in items

Compared to losing over 400k in worth, 100k isnt a bad loss. Its still a lose but compared to the average not so bad.

I guess I'm looking at this from an end point total value sort of way. How long would one have to wait for items to appreciate in order to come out ahead from the 400K in losses?

Somewhere between multiple years to forever,

Is typical of a rig fail item over the base of a year. I expect that tred would continue the next couple years at least.

Rig fails combine massive ammounts with low demand, meaning value is more decided by sell back, than it is by the market.

In terms of alchemy items, rigs will only have items that are usable in alchemy, the type which are destroyed often enough and need replacing.

Just like rigs would never have donation items

Though one of the early rigs did have 2003 event items. That caused quite a stir.

A lot less stuff, I do like how much stuff you can get from rigs now. Expecially some of the poses on cheaper stuff. I do however believe that there should be a min limit on sellbacks which is higher than current (getting a common item with a 10k sell back I think its a bit low)

You mean that most rigs, or most items in the rig dont have hair items? Usually there are quite a few per rig. Though these usually end up being the more expensive items, because hair is popular.

In this rig in terms of hair I can see

SDPlus #424 Renard
SDPlus #423 Lady Evangeline
SDPlus #428 Lucille-Eve
SDPlus #425 Dyrfinna the All-Wise
Luxurious Elizabeth
Virgil Rosenthal
Concerto Conjurer
Empress of the Napoleonic Empire
Saber Feidae
Grand Victorian
Sweet Sixties
Savvy Sixties
Stellar Sixties

With the cheapest being about 40k, which is a pretty normal ammount of hair for a rig.
