Hello!
I last played this game over 20 years ago. Offline.
Im now lvl 73 sorc on nightmare in D2R.

1. Could you give me a recommendation on what items should be set aside for trading? (As I saw
   Perfect Gems & runes are the most wanted/common currency.)

• The rune part I understand but I don't understand why there is so much demand for
  Perfect Gems?

• Are all
  Perfect Gems valuable or are there more valuable and less valuable gems?

Thank you!

Gems are used in crafting via

Horadric Cube.

Perfect Amethyst are the most valuable, 8-10 of those go for

Ist

Perfect Ruby and

Perfect Skull are next ones, around 20 of those go for

Ist

Perfect Topaz,

Perfect Emerald,

Perfect Diamond and

Perfect Sapphire, all are same value, 35-40 of those go for

Ist
From lower runes

Hel are the most expensive, 6-8 go for

Ist depending on the buyer

Ral are roughly same value as

Perfect Ruby and

Perfect Skull
The rest are at 30-40 per

Ist up until

Shael

Dol price is dictated by

Hel and are combined for that

Io,

Lum,

Ko,

Fal are around 8-10 for

Ist
Starting at

Lem you are in the good currency, 0.2

Ist

Pul at 0.3

Ist,

Um at 0.5

Ist,

Mal around 0.8

Ist

Before selling gems or runes I recommend you to look at the latest trending with the Price Check tool and also to spot the best offers for you watching the WTB section in Search Trades.

And mostly important : welcome back to D2 and welcome on this site !

just for your information, in two days is a ladder reset.

your ladder char will be converted to nonLadder.

so dont invest too much time, if you want to play ladder.

also

Perfect Gems as a pseudo item have their own listing here

I'm not really into gem and low rune trading, but I can't seem to stop myself from saving the d**m things. I sometimes use them for cube crafting, but more often than not I end up having to dump them just to clear storage space, which I then use to store annis and torches until I'm forced to clear them.

That being said, if you're looking to build Wealth then gems and some select low runes such as

Ral and

Hel are a good start. Another really good start to build Wealth is

Key farming, especially the

Key of Hate with a good sorc build.

hey @MHLG feel free to dump all those pgems my way..yours stays rent free (that is until cubed by yours truly) in my stash.

Just throwing it out there
