Why you need it
A resource price in Albion Online sometimes drops hard. Someone dumps a batch in a hurry, and for a couple of hours the item sits cheaper than usual. The section looks for such cases in your city. It also works out what you earn by relisting at the usual price.
The site takes the usual price from trade history: the median for a month and the median for a week, whichever is lower. That way it will not suggest something that keeps getting cheaper. Each row has three numbers: the price the item is listed from, the price not to go above, and what it usually costs.
How to use it
Enter city, silver and minimum ROI
The ROI sets the “do not buy above” ceiling.
Press “Find best options”
The site checks resources and materials. The most reliable option gets the “Best pick” mark.
Open “Details”
You get the break-even sell price, how long the batch takes to sell, prices in other cities and a link to the chart.
Buy in the game under the ceiling
Place your sell order when the price is back to usual.
What the site counts
- Market tax of 4% with Premium or 8% without, and the 2.5% sell order fee.
- What happens if you have to lower your price once. It is a separate line in the numbers.
- How much is listed up to the ceiling. Along live orders, and no more than your silver covers.
- Reliability: high, medium or low. A drop in your city only is one thing, a drop everywhere is another.
- Whether the item actually sells. Things that hardly sell stay out of the list.
- Freshness. If a price was seen more than three hours ago, the option is marked “needs checking”.
What we don’t promise
- That the price comes back. Profit is shown for that case, and the site does not know when or whether it happens.
- That there are always options. An empty list means there are no real dips right now.
- That everything is covered. For now it is resources and materials in the five royal cities, no gear.
Questions and answers
What does “usually ~” on a row mean?
The usual price of the item in that city. The lower of two: for a month and for a week. A note next to it says which period gave it.
Why are there no medals here?
The profit is conditional: you only get it if the price comes back. So instead of medals there is one “Best pick”.
Where do I sell what I bought?
The numbers assume a sell order in the same city. To compare cities, use the Sell Smart section.
How long until the price comes back?
The site does not know and does not guess. “Details” only says how long the market usually takes to buy up such a batch.
