Manor and seeds (im confused)

So, I heard I could make some adena by doing the manor quests and harvesting seeds.

I spoke with the manor guy at the elven village and bought some red coda and a harvester. I have about 500 red coda seeds now I harvested

I went back to the manor guy where I bought the harvester and red coda from to sell them back (my first mistake I think?) and he showed me what looked like 2 towns who are interested in these seeds. Oren and Gludio. It looks like theyre offering adena and also offering materials. Oren is offering varnish and Gludio was offering something else (skins I think)

Now theres a "sale" button on the bottom of this gui when I checked in my harvest. I clicked it and it did nothing. So where/who do I go to for the sale of these seeds? I thought the manor manager would take care of this for me, but im not sure how selling back seeds works. Do I need to travel to Oren or Gludio and visit a specific NPC?

thanks

You have to Edit sales then click on Max Sale.
If you have two choices Like Oren or Gludio you'll have to pay adena for the sale for the area you are not in.
So if your in Gludio and choose the gludio option you'll get the mats for free (not including the cost of the seeds).
If you choose Oren there will be a surcharge ontop of the mats.

So if you prefer Oren make sure you run up to DE or LE village to do the transaction.

The adena listing is actually a *cost*. You have to pay to turn the seeds in. It's not very much, but it's sort of to offset the amount you will make off the materials. Make sure you have enough adena to cover the cost.

great so I can sell these at the elven villiage to Oren and get varnish without having to travel? but if Im in the area I dont get charged a surcharge to sell?

so If I want varnish I need to travel to oren to make the sale for free, or sell at the elven village for a surcharge? Does the surcharge reduce the "closer" I am to the city? IE. If I sell these seeds in Giran will it reduce the surcharge I pay in Oren?

this isnt very intuitive..

DE and LE Village are controled by Oren castle so are in the Oren area.

To be specific on selling, go to manor guy, click him and select "Tally up Indigenous Product." This brings up a list of all the crops you have in your inventory (not Warehouse.)

Double click the crop you wish to sell, and it brings up another screen listing all the manors buying that crop and a 'reward type' of 1 or 2 for each. Look at the top of the box to see what '1' and '2' will give you. For red coda, you wanted varnish, which is '1' reward type. Look to the town buying '1' for the highest price. Select it in the box near the bottom of the screen. (Clicking 'max price' will chose the town buying for the highest price, but it may be a '2' town. It also sets the quantity to all you have.)

To prevent waste, you should manually enter the quantity. To do this you need to know the 'base price' of the mat you are getting. You can look that up here. (http://lineage2.stratics.com/content/library/items/etcitems.php?type=material) Varnish has a base price of 200a, so you want to turn in a quantity of crops that when multiplied by the manor buying price is a multiple of 200a.

If the manor is paying 300a for each red coda, you need to turn in an even number to prevent waste; 2, 4, 6, etc. On varnish, the loss is small, but if you are getting enria, you can loose a lot (12,000a base price, so at 300a each you need to turn in 40 before getting any; turn in less, you get nothing.)

Once you set the quantity, click the 'okay' (or similar) box at the bottom. It closes this window, but enters you data in the original screen. (on the line of your crop, entries will be seen in the town and quantity fields.) This crop is now ready to sell by clicking the 'sale' box at the bottom, but don't do it yet. (repeat for any other crop you wish to sell.)

When they are all ready, click 'sale.' If the manor is buying, the sale will occur. If the manor is sold out, you must come back and sell at 8:06 pm CST. You can set the sell screen anytime between 8:00 and 8:06, but don't click 'sale' until 8:06. If you are too early, you get a 'manor is undergoing maintenance' message. If you are too late, and others have sold before you, you get a 'failed to turn in 200 red coda' message. Try again the next day.

Angdil has the sales process down - the listed adena amount is, as pointed out, not a cost but how you calculate your winnings. You will not receive adena off the manor manager, if you sell less crops than you need to make a single material, however, you will not receive any money either.

You will be charged 10% of the adena value of your reward if you hand in for a town you're not standing in (i.e. you stand in Gludio and sell to Oren).

Does anyone know what time the manor resets in Teon and Franz. Is it same - 8pm CST? It cant be.... :S

In Europe i think its at 2am. CST = GMT-6 i think

It's six or seven in the evening German time I think - or maybe eight. Somewhere thereabouts, I'm not entirely certain. :/

Currently, it's 19:05:53 UTC. It was 18:05:53 UTC before the last Tuesday update, and changed from around 18:03:30 UTC a few weeks before it.
