By knowing the market you know if something is cheap. It's just a question of time when you can sell a item for the going price.
Time is important when buying/reselling.

Yeah I can see where time can be frustrating for buying and reselling, especially if you bought an item before europe and try selling it now. I bought a 42+3 SOS blade and shield (shield is now +5) before euro came out. Now SOS prices have dropped quite a bit. I think I bought the blade at about 30m or so but now people sell them around 15-20m. Makes me wonder if prices will ever go back up.
I've priced my shield similar to others in the stall network (cheaper than what I bought it for when it was +3) and it's not selling well. I've had these for quite some time now.
