Economy Too many Diamond pick axes !

I have only been playing for about 6 months and I already have 4 double chests packed full of diamond pick axes. please give us a way to recycle these. I am thinking you could set up a vender at spawn similar to the potion seller. The vender would trade you a single diamond for a set number of diamond pickaxes, I am thinking anywhere from 5 to 10 axes for 1 diamond would be fair. Please, ! They are sitting in chests useless!

 

This would honestly be good for both servers not just Eco. There is definitely an excessive amount on survival as well

 

I'll happily buy them if you like
$500 each sound reasonable?

 

Support. Don't care about the specific implementation details, but definitely agree there's WAY too many diamond pickaxes imo

 

They sell on Eco for $400 each, to the shop.


If they have to blue name, then they can't be sold but you can combine two of those in the workbench and they will revert to the basic one with the white text so you can then sell it.

Diamond pick with white text = $400
Diamond pick with blue text = $200

 

You can just put them in an anvil and reset the name to the vanilla lore.

 

I'm pretty sure that won't work. It Italicises the font and adds tags to the pick which makes it unsellable.

 

It works. You can just remove the name, add a spacebar and it has the vanilla lore. Works for all lored items.

 

Well there you go, it does too.

That being said, iron ingots sell fairly easily for $400 each so an anvil costs $12,400. An anvil has, on average 25 uses before it breaks meaning each use costs close to $500 so you would actually lose $100 by using an anvil for this purpose.

Zestym3m3s has lots of free anvils though so go knock yourself out there guys.

 

I was gonna say, just use public anvils. I don't think that people actually care about $100 though, when a single grass block from survival gets you 8k on eco.

 

Ok Hopper would you be willing to buy all my excess for a fair price then if you disagree..?

 

If it's " excess " you can give it away or /trash them, it would be " excess " if you actually needed them. And there wouldn't be an " excess " amount if people were buying it

 

Besides the point and veering away from the main topic of this thread, if you disagree with the situation—specifically, the influx of diamond pickaxes and their declining value—what alternative would you propose instead?
