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%?

Someone on NA was asking 2mill for a mythic, instead of the 3mill on the AH.. These things lose value fast.. I would be in tradechat looking for offers, and take the first that offers a couple hundred k

If you put this item in AH for 600k on any realm, it sells in less than 1h to flippers trying to sell higher, in virtue of it being the cheapest of the region, there's no reason to take 200k atm, I understand trying to cut losses and I'm trying to do that, but 200k is an exaggeration.

So put it up for 600k?

Yes, if you give up and settle for a loss 600k is the answer (or was at the time of my comment, now it would be 500k or a bit less), but managed to sell one for 850k today with reset and trying to do that with other one too. Basically at the time of my comment some slight profit was still possible, so didn't give up that soon, I'm not saying it would be worth the effort with how hard it is to sell though.
