What is the protocol when adding item tooltips when an item can be bought from a vendor for x amount, and sold back to the vendor for 25% of the cost? In the tooltip, do you want the item cost from the vendor or the item value after purchase? I'm confused Example: Empty Glass Bottle - buy it for 12s from a vendor, but you can only sell it back for 3s. My initial thought is the tooltip should reflect the actual item value of 3s not the vendor price of 12s, but I wasn't sure.

Nayla put the value and not the sell cost, please. I think we should be asking both for items in the future, but the tooltips should just display the actual cost.

Arse, ive been putting the value shown on the item tooltip from the game when its in my bag, think we need to get the template updated to have buy and sell value, but not sure how that would be displayed, maybe put it in the free text area for the item page? reason ive been doing it this way is that most of the items that ive been adding are either mob drops or crafted items and they dont have a buy price
