Could someone explain why Marigold's price is so high?

[hlpmee]

I have played this game long, but yet not able to answer that question convincingly.

 

Who is buying them for such a high price?

 

(the price is 3911 at this moment, used to be even higher)

I understand bull ant could be the an explaination. But thinking in normal way, shouldn't most players go terror bird, much cheaper training and much more usefull?

 

lvl 40--> lvl 52 is not far (86,436 exp only)

 

That is why I am confused.

That is an efficiency debate I'm not getting into.

For the people who haven't gotten/used the charms to get that far, bull ants are pretty damn good. Summoning doesn't seem to be well understood by the majority of players, and the average player (read: Not a powergamer) is going to need maybe 1000 charms to get that, plus whatever seconds they need and the shards. Quite costly, if you're a low level.

 

That, and there probably aren't as many people growing them as there are low-level summoners.

IDK why the Marigold prices remain so high but it's consistently in the price of 4000 GE per Marigold. I think I have even gotten 5000 for them on higher scale of profits. They consistently sell well- most of the time immediately on GE price. Sometimes longer if I price them 5% higher (and they still sell well)

 

I have been farming Marigolds from the start and I still farm them with my herbs. It helps offset the snapdragon seeds incase one of them dies. Since 4 Marigolds = 1 snap dragon seed (plus some profit leftover).

Actually I did read. <_< I was referencing to the point that I did not know before reading this thread why they were selling so high nor were I to presuming to know. I was just citing my experience as a marigold farmer on the price points. But thanks for pointing out the obvious.
