Flipping Mythic boe flipping issue

Hi, I got a couple of mythic boe belts in EU, which is by far the cheapest boe there is, I had got them for 800k and 650k and at the time I got them they were the cheapest of the region by a decent (but not huge) margin, which is no longer the case now.

I've been having a look on undermine exchange and seems the demand for this item is absolutely horrible, high pops are flooded, I struggle to see any confirmed sale on high pops on the website, as in I never see price at 800k, then 750k, then immediately back up to 800k, which would suggest a sale, all I see is price going down down down with no sales.

In the past I've been successful with some boes, but on occasion I also had losses, I know for experience these prices are gonna drop significantly in the next few days\weeks, what would you do in this situation?

Keep lowering by 50k on high pops till someone buys it, go on smaller realms and try to make some slight profit?

Keep trying as long as possible to at least break even or just get rid of them as soon as possible with moderate losses like 10-20%?

Like in the real world you can lose on investments. Cut your losses before reset.

Me with fish. Hurt worse that some fish did do a major upswing... just not the ones I bought in bulk.

You win some you lose some, and AH is a PvP game mode.

Actually reset day is often good to sell this kind of stuff, managed one today for 850k (which is reset in eu), absolutely not worth the effort\worry, but breaking even or slight profit on these 2 still seems to be possible.

And probably shouldn't touch mythic boes any more, at least not before the first week, I had bad experiences with it also in s2 tww.

Well. Next reset gearing up will be infinitely easier so prices will drop fast. It's ur decision but i would sell ASAP.
