Okay, I know the eye update devalued a few primal genones but
I have FOUR genones I am trying to auction, all are fully gened, some with gem genes, all are leveled to 25, and ALL have eye genes applied, all are unbred..
Now, I haven't gotten a sInGLE bid on them? I just can't understand. Are users not interested in first generation dragons anymore? Are the ones I'm selling just not that appealing to the average user? Please help me understand, I thought for sure these guys would be a hit when I decided to sell them.
:C

[emoji=ivy leaf size=1] You got a few people asking for LDPs, i wouldnt give up hope yet.
People definitely still are interested in G1s, you might just happened to be unlucky. Personally as a G1 collector I’m just not interested in gened G1s, but there are people who are!

People value colours above genes usually. In my experience, a dragon being gened does not effect whether or not people will buy it because they have their own plans and will have to re-gene it anyway. It effects how high people price them though because they want to make back some of what they've spent.
The first one certainly has a lot of potential though

Your SBs are also pretty close to the AB as well, you sometimes have to have a way lower SB to encourage bidding. ^^

G1 values, at least as I've observed nowadays (anecdotal evidence, if anyone else has somethin to say go ahead) rest more on the actual colors, element, and maybe level. Pre-gened/eye changed/breed changed g1s honestly aren't as much of a factor since someone's ideal scry probably doesn't match up to what the dragon in question already has applied.

I'm not even G1 collector but I do buy them occasionally and I am pinged a lot for auctions. I see that most of the time people are willing to bid and fight for doubles and maybe WCs. XYZs are not really a hit, even matchy and/or gened. Sad truth but most of the time you won't get back even genes/breed change cost from selling gened/breedchanged G1. Also, judging by some threads about G1s meaning for players, a lot of collectors want to gene G1s themselves so it will be fully personalized dragon.
Of course it's just my opinion and it totally can be wrong.

I'm not super into G1s, but it seems like the market has always been kind of volatile. Taste in G1s is pretty subjective. A few things:
- I think most people prefer ungened G1s. You usually aren't going to get the value of the scrolls used when you're trying to resell, and the main sell of G1s is just having nice colors. Most buyers are probably gonna have other gene plans in mind.
-They're all XYZ which is even more subjective as far as taste
-Your SB and ABs are pretty close, you might want to try lowering your SBs if you're auctioning them.
-I'm not sure how much value being l25 adds to them? I would imagine most people who are super into G1s have a coil team already, or otherwise don't really care about the dragon's level. Most people are just after colors.

i find gened g1s don’t often go for the price of their scrolls :0? also, in terms of lvl 25 buying, i think most looking for leveled dragons care more about a cheap dragon for fodder-leveling than a more expensive g1 one- unless they’re a g1 monolair, which can be a small audience to market to. they’re lovely dragons, though, and i hope you find your buyers! <3

Thank you all for the feedback. I don't auction often (first time in years) so I think I was a bit out of touch with estimated values!
