No not going off site link but "donate for me" floating ratios are usually a good dollar amount to put on fg. Yes I was thinking anywhere from 400-600fg depending on buyer/seller and market.
Sorry not trying to muddy the thread at all, obviously he's getting sales so people put a high value on being able to get these with fg instead of gold/money. Again best of luck OP
Actually it is entirely true that 1000fg = $10. Just take a look at the real-life trades thread. Every single thing in there is basically valued at $10 = 1k fg. Also, if you have any interest in RMT (which 90% of the big buyers / spenders of this site is composed of), you would realize this value also holds true with regards to that. If you want a clearer picture, look at the POE threads with people buying and selling exalts (mostly in rampage / standard), and then look at the prices RMT are paying for said exalts, The prices of exalts (and really any currency) on this forum are directly influenced by the fact that $10 = 1k fg. The same thing with the CS: GO forums, they indirectly value fg at $10 = 1kfg. It's similar for other sections. Of course selling fg directly for real money is illegal (don't do it!) and your account will get banned if you do it, it does not change the fact that prices are a direct result of RMT prices.

Hope you aren't going off of the prices on the "Purchase more FG". In all honesty, 1k FG is way too much considering they go for 25-30g on servers. Therefore, if the ratio is around 1:25fg for gold, apex should be around 600fg.
And on my server, APEX's are now up to 42-45g each, they have not been at 25-30g for over 3 days and they are constantly rising. So I'm not sure where you are getting your numbers from, but if you really have an AH with Apex's that have prices that low, I suggest you buy them all now and hold onto them for resale value.
I will say this :
It is obvious that since Apex has a $10 dollar amount attached to it, it will eventually bottom out at costing 1kfg, because every single thing on the forum is based around $10 = 1000fg. If you can't possibly believe this, you really need to do some more research on this forum
And also,
Yes it WAS entirely true that the gold : Apex ratio in-game was absolutely absurd. Apex should never have cost 25-35 gold, especially with RMT selling 100 gold for only $19. There was a huge profit to be made, and that profit is pretty much diminished now that people are realizing it and Apex prices are quickly rising.
