So a few of us have noticed lower prices at the pawnshop in Kraken Falls than FWI. We've seen varied prices among different characters for the same item as well. I found one brooch item that was higher price at the pawnshop in KF than FWI.
So far, it seems we're told "The pawnshop in KF/FWI is working as intended. Took me a while to figure out what was going on. It has nothing to do with trading, influence, race or citizenship."
If this is a supply/demand thing that is classified information, so be it. But it seems off. The amount of junk sold at the pawnshop in KF based off critter loot, makes me think nicer items would get better prices. I don't see people coming to KF to sell things in mass as with FWI either.
Would be nice to have some answers of what it is the issue rather than what is not.
Because it's a pirate island, are smaller, valuables better than heavier due to cargo space on ships? I guess trade is more limited at KF than FWI or Teras?
Just some quick/brief testing with DE sorcerer, FWI citizen, 14 INF bonus, 144 trading bonus.

Thanks for sharing these data points. I agree with Deso, it would be very helpful to know what the missing variable IS (are?) here, since we clearly aren't able to figure out the missing factors that would cause pawnshops to yield such disparate pricing.

You reply, speaking to the lady, "At least I have ratings."

I understand why it would matter for that neckchain.... but what does it matter for the other two items since yer not getting more then 35k anyway?

> I feel it matters because we're told KF was neutral, but if there's a supply/demand factor based on island/mainland or item weight/type, then I think we deserve to know. I'd like to be an informed consumer.
I was cleared to give out this information. There is a supply/demand mechanic in place that reduces value based on the number of items of a specific type sold at that pawnshop.
