So, me and another lock in my guild were almost locked and loaded for my dreadsteed quest, Farmed and turned in the Mats, now I had a choice to make; Pay 400 Gold for the Candle/Lodestone/Jar OR find another lock who already possesses these items and see if he/she would like to tag along on the run to Dire Maul...
I end up seeing a good prospect in Shattarah (70 Lock), PM her about it, she says "My going rate is 100 Gold", to make a long story short, I paid, she delivered, everyones happy...
But after the fact, me and this lock who ran us were in discussion about feedback on how much I paid, she mentioned that in the past when she would quote people for 100 Gold they would "sh*t a brick and get hostile on her", but IMO I saved 300 gold and the run went fast (About 45 minutes tops)...
Since she asked what would be a good price for future "Business", I reccomended that she try to lower it down to double digits (99 or less) to lessen the sticker shock of the asking price...
