@Kaylad: In my experience, most equipment (i.e., armor/weapons) should be vendored after [one sales attempt if a 48-hour duration]/[two sales at 24-hours], since the deposit price is a percentage of what a vendor will pay for them. If you're going to vendor an item after an auction attempt, it doesn't make sense to post it more times than once or twice, as you'll be losing money. That said, if you're absolutely sure you can sell a [Nobles Brand of the Bandit] for 60 gold eventually (as an example, and as unlikely as it may be), it doesn't necessarily follow that you should vendor it after just an attempt or two.

Sharding items may or may not follow the same rule of thumb, depending on how much the 'chant mats go for on your server.
