Subject: Re: Vial Prices


so far, have sold 3 of each at about these prices, and found 1 person who
decided to wait on a potter fried, and another who said good prices, but
none needed at the time....
not much of a market at the moment it seems....

doesn't help that noone has any idea where to get poison making supplies or
instructions.

currently thinking about selling at 2pp for normal, 5pp for lined, with 10%
off per 5, up to 40% off...tho i may give up on it when i max my pottery
again if the market doesn't improve...

skill is at 153, and lined is still not trivial
