and just to add, when mm/imk2 was 100k (i remember when they were that cheap) and imp fap was 100k, mod fap was 200k or so, and this was a viable trade.
course at the time imp2870 was about 10-15k. so i guess you could have also traded a mod fap for 13 to 20 of those. given that the i2870 is 65-70k atm, they would be worth 845-1400k, atm.
a lot of the top end gear hit a level where it didn't "just go up" as some ppl like to say, when the mid level stuff skyrocketed by comparison.
nobody's throwing stones at ya, sammy. but i think prices are a reflection of willingness to deposit, trust in the economy, and when ppl hit good loots they are more willing to part with those freshly earned "free" peds in a way that makes gear go up, as when it comes to this adj/imp/mod stuff, there's a very little amount of the stuff to go around and more and more ppl interested in owning and using it everyday.
good luck finding a deal that works for you, skull. maybe stormer could find an extra 38k (oh, look a falx) somewhere and figure out a viable trade for you fap. best of luck to you in whatever gear change you're about to make.
