How's the brokerage market for new accessories?

With catalysts I got a Black Bow. I am not interested in using it myself, but ti sells nicely for like 28000 gold at the moment.
But the down payment is 1300+ gold, around 1000 gold more than I have at the moment.

Now the issue is that once I get enough gold to put the Black Bow up for sale, I spend a large amount of my gold in hope of making more money, but just as easily I could be wasting most of what I have.

So, how easily do acessories lose value? At this point are catalyst gotten items still sort of rare and I should expect the price to drop?
In general, are people prone to undercut other prices by a large margin?

What's a good time/price to sell?

    During the event, I imagine all the values will drop. After the event, prices should stabilise. Plus that'll give you time to get more gold to put them on the broker.

    If you get Elite, you can list items without paying the broker listing fee, but getting elite may not be in your mind right now. You can try to use the Trade Chat if you want to avoid paying the broker listing fee. Beware that in trade chat, people will offer you a bit less of what the broker list, since there is no limit like in the broker on how much less you can negotiate the original price. I would try to sell it as fast as possible, because after the 28th when the event is over, prices for all of the items Kyra is offering through the potion shack, will see a huge drop, so one item that was worth normally 20k, could be worth 1k after the event ends, depending on how many people got it.

    if you want money now try and sell it asap but if you can wait and want to get the item's general value worth then you'd want to hold on to it and wait until kyra's is over... and then some time after that for the economy to go back to how it was pre-kyra's. so that could be around a two month wait. the black bow item in particular can be sold pretty high for an accessory item (50k or so), like you seeing it for 28k is already a discounted price from the usual thanks to kyra's going on right now.

    if you're playing kyra's and going for the costumes potions instead of consumables then you'll want to have a general idea what accessories are worth 'cause kyra's gives you a heck of a lot of them. most accessories are worth pennies but, certain ones like the black bow can really appreciate in value once they get more sparse in the market cause it's aesthetically a nice item.
