I have a Ber, cubed from this Sur and this Sur

I'm looking for a Jah, so I can make the runeword that I once called "the symbol for all that is wrong with Bnet" - Enigma.

I've seen a couple recent trades that have been straight swaps, but I'm willing to add on my side, if necessary.|||Sorry for off-topic but what is the point of cubing up runes you are going to trade anyway?

I mean I understand cubing 2xSur to Ber if you need it and don't want to wait for a trade. But you are practically burning away your wealth.

I'm going to have to disagree with you on the issue of burning away my wealth. You're implying that I could get more then then 1 Ber worth of value if I traded each Sur individually. I don't think that's the case in today's SP economy.

What can I get for Sur by itself? I traded my RjoF for a Sur. Most of the high end uniques are valued at a Sur. Could I somehow flip the item I acquired for more then a Sur? Doubtful.

I could trade my Sur straight up for a Lo. But since they're equal in trade value, I still end up with a Ber's worth of value in the end. Could I trade 2 Lo's for a Jah? Certainly, in fact, it was done recently. But not every trader wants 2 Lo's, especially long-time vets who've already made their 2 Griefs and Fort. Everyone can use a Ber, however.

Ber is the jumping off point for all traders attempting to make the high-end runewords. Ber either gets used as Ber (Beast, Enigma, Infinity, Coh) or gets traded approx 1:1 for Jah (Enigma, Faith, Dream) or Cham (Doom, HoJ).

In the future, if you're not going to offer me a trade and instead choose to denigrate my trading tactics, I'd appreciate it if you pm'ed me instead.
