Did I get ripped off?

I traded my 21atk 3L unique 6%all, 6% dex Gold Emerald Earrings for his..

-2.24b mesos
-64 AEE (at 10m each)
-Clean 3L epic tempest ring (6% int, 3% dex) with 2% str bonus pot.

Overall he paid roughly 3b, should I hang on to the AEE or start selling them now?
Did I lose in this trade?

[quote=PoepieFTW]nah the trade wasn't bad at all,
12% 20att earrings go for ~3b I guess[/quote]

[quote=ronny278]Good deal, they'll eventually be deleted. If they weren't gonna be deleted then their price would be around 4b and seeing as you're waiting for AEEs to rise again (to say around 25m ea) you've probably earned around the 3.75-4b mark anyways; so all in all a great deal imo[/quote]

Haven't thought about it that way, it's a reassuring way to think of this trade haha.
Thanks !

[quote=rangingnoob1]You got the better end, eventually those earrings will get deleted. If i were you I would hold those AEEs knowing the price is unstable for them atm because of the hot time not too long ago, just wait until mid January - early February[/quote]

Alright that's what I'm going to do then
Thanks a lot !

@AkatsukiLove: You are welcome and people are afraid to buy em anymore so they dun easily get sold

Given duped stuff will be wiped you did better than getting nada for them.

[quote=nightdrks]fair enuf deal ive seen a 21att 15% luk uni c/o 2.4 for quite a bit now

Alright thanks, for some reason atk earrings aren't worth alot in bera.
When duped items were deleted I saw prices plummet to 1b.
This was what I was looking for, thank you

[quote=Tuuu]A large majority of the attack earrings are duped (gold emeralds one), in Bera there's alot of 20atk's epics/rares for sale for 1.5-2b each.
I saw none of them sell though, overall I think you did well, less risk of getting your items deleted and eventually the AEE will inflate again.[/quote]

i dont think the aee will inflate cuz nexon keeps giving them away in events. also people keep telling me they are easy to get

[quote=mechibi]@AkatsukiLove: well its kind of hard to say
if it was duped you made a huge profit.
if it wasnt then you got ripped off[/quote]

I see it's duped for sure.
I bought it in mts when it was roughly 11k nx I believe

[quote=goegg2]No more items are getting deleted due to all the rage and complaints on the maplestory forums.
Thousands of QQ'ing tickets and forum threads.
Knowing nexon, they dont like dealing with this crap.[/quote]

Who told you that?
Are you just assuming this?

[quote=3xdex]I feel as if you did well, because I only got low offers selling my duped gear too.. </3.[/quote]

The next best offer was 1.5b x.x
And i almost sold it at the time so when he offered 3b i thought it was pretty good.

since that earring is obviously duped and he'll lose it eventually technically you ripped him off (in the end)
