Topic: Is there something like a KBB for MMO accounts? (Read 392 times)
Only way to tell is to have experience trading in the game, and know the prices and how hard/easy it would be to sell the account/item.
It struck me, seeing an account sold, which was collateral for a bad loan, that I'm not aware of comprehensive reference material on these things. If small consumer loans in the future accept game accounts as valid collateral in lieu of established credit (and in a limited # of cases, they already are), it seems like this kind of service would be in a fair amount of demand.
If someone asks for a loan right now, and they say they can put up a level 90 runescape account with Boots of Bootening or whatever, I don't think anybody would know what the Hell that's worth without maybe going to Ogrr or the fiat alternative and taking a fairly long time to find info on all of it. The probably still wouldn't know whether it's actually able to be repo'd (instead of ownership reversal being possible).
