Are we as a community delusional or just too in love with the novelty that used to be D2? This game is so dead you couldnt sell any of that stuff at the "advised" prices. IF you are lucky enough to find a buyer who 1) has a decent amount of fg and 2) actualy wants these items for some reason other than sheer boredom/hoarding purposes... then, and only then will you find the true prices of these items.

Ahhh good old rune circle.

Rcircle - 5k-10k depends on buyer but these are rare af
Wcollar - 1k-2k
Storm scarab 1k

These are just based on my opinions.

I haven’t seen another r circle in years.


Thank you, Mike. I believe this is one of the last if not the last one still in circulation. Sad but awesome that there still are some gems out there from 08.

The beauty of stuff like this, especially for us seasoned vets is the sheer fact that these items bring back the nostalgia of playing back in the short lived era of .08 which merged into .09 during the prime of Diablo 2. This means the window to catch something like this was only a few months at best. Once .09 came about these boots could not drop anymore making them extremely desirable for the stats they dropped with. This sprung a massive duping conglomerate which soon became common place among the community at the time. Once 1.10 came out the item ID affixes became a thing resulting in "unperm copies," all over the place as people continued to dupe post 1.10. That's why they are so special. The bring us back and also hold a true value for the stats they possess as well. Not a one of a kind item by any means. But it seems we're headed that direction with the ban waves. I wouldn't treat this any differently than owning a vintage sports car. If you love it, collect it. You can also put the pedal down from time to time and enjoy what it has to offer. My 2 cents on the matter.

Thanks for the PC guys.

Are u another OnGrape Cuhz..?? sure talk like one. :rofl:


The sad thing about a guy like you is that you mistakenly take offense to a post that means to deliver none. You also mistakenly think your jsp "seniority" and fg count gives you license to belittle posters like myself and ongrape (as essentric as he may be).
