Trading Rates of Orbs of Unmaking in Path of Exile

As a rare currency, their base value fluctuates depending on relative supply and demand within a league economy. In the first few weeks of a fresh league start, their value peaks the highest, sometimes 10-15 chaos each due to scarcity. Once more maps have been run and supply increases from later acts on, they stabilize around 5-10 chaos per Orb of Unmaking. Extremely dedicated farmers may offer them for slightly less like 4-8 chaos if selling in bulk to make profit.

On the buyer side, getting a good deal is considered anything under 10 chaos per Orb when not in a rush. In Standard permanent leagues, consistent high supply and demand for Atlas shaping keeps them fetching 10-15 chaos steadily. Some high volume crafters may pay a premium, up to 20 chaos each, if acquiring a large amount for projects. Due to rarity, their real-world cash value through trading sites ranges from $0.50-$1 USD each depending on the league. Guildmate or direct trades often complete at the bottom end of typical price ranges.
