After the recent change in resale of horses I wondered....
If i buy a horse with status and money.
Guild lvlv drop and resale it would i make a profit?

Need a guild exacly on lvl 15 that drops a low status patron and check it.

Probably will never be confirmed but might have something here...:)

Hrmm ... shouldn't -- since the whistle should be flagged as being a "status purchased" item; it should rebate your Personal Status and give you nearly the coin you paid for the horse.

Still ... be interesting to see if they missed that detail, somehow. :)

Also, if you buy your horse before your guild hits a "cheaper horse" GL, you can sell back your normally-priced whistle (getting most of your coin back), then buy one of the coin+status whistles. Let me tell you, for the 9p horses ... it's pretty nice to swap some personal status for a few plat.

I just tried and you get all your status points back but the buy back price is reduced. I didn't actualy sell it back but it lised a reduce price.

You can't sell horses to other players. They are listed as No Trade :(

I was just referring to buying the tier of horse you wanted before your guild was high enough to get the "status discount", then selling your non-status back and buying the status one to recoup some cash.

Not sure if any of the "trade NO TRADE items" tricks work for a whistle -- but there's things I'd rather sell than a horse, if so!
