Normally I might have said you probably wouldn't have much luck with getting these anymore. But with I19 coming up and its Inherent Fitness you might get some people who are going to be respecing some ancient builds that might have some of these locked away on them.
Good luck to you.

even then, I'd say the chances are pretty low. Level 53's weren't, and aren't, common drops. Actually, I don't think I've seen any level 50+ since Hamidon gained the choice between reward merits or an enhancement drop. |

There are likely to be more 50, 50+, 50++, 51, 51+, 51++, 52, and 52+ HO's floating around and in base storage. These enhancements are largely server locked since they can't be placed in the auction house or sent by email. I think the only way they can be moved between servers is through a server transfer.
Also, as to price, get prepared to bend over.
Level 50 Ribo's go for 400,000,000 on average.
Level 52 Ribo's have gone for as much as 1,000,000,000
There is no auction house record for level 53 Ribo's. All of the ones that I'm aware of making the trading market are sold off the market and for more than the personal influence wealth cap. Depending on how many you want, you'll probably need 10 or 12billion sacked away in order to make up the prices that players selling level 53 HO's are going to want.

Just strip off the +/++ by giving them to someone instead of trading. Then they are email/AH friendly.

So with all the respecs flying has anyone unearthed any of these lvl 53 variants of HO's ? It's a long shot but still looking Willing to pay a full 2 Billion for some of the ones I really want. I do want the lvl 53 versions for versatility. I have some 50's now that I can + up but first choice is 53's if possible. Drop me a PM and we'll make arrangements.

Um, if you give them to somebody, the +/++ should stay, that won't do anything to strip the +/++ off.
To the OP: good luck, but I really don't think you are going to have much luck on this.

Are you just saying that because you don't think it would work, or are you saying they finally fixed the bug in which it was known to happen?

The bug that allowed it to happen was from about 4-5 years ago 'ish. The lvl 53's made an appearance for a very short time before the bug was fixed. So really theres probably only a 100'ish (maybe 200) scattered around all the servers. So just hoping some of these might still exist on active characters who might be willing to sell a couple for mad profitz. I can do without them but I really want some as part of my perfectionist mentality.
Factor in the likelihood of getting the ones I actually want, and yes I'll take all the luck I can get in this endeavor, lol.

Did you gift them (ie drag the enhancement over the character in question and drop them) or trade them (ie give them to the character via the trade window)?
IIRC, the bug that stripped the +'s off combined enhancements only occured when the enhancements were gifted.
@Roderick
You're in luck! I have a few of these level 52+ HOs lying around in a bin. Send me a tell on @ajax creed and lets see if we can make a trade.

I gave away a 52 Membrane exposure yesterday on Justice...
In this instance I'm actually trying for the pure lvl 53's. As I mentioned before I dont need to have the 53's, I simply want them for the pretty factor and for versatility in moving them to other characters in the future.

I remember back in the day these used to be around. I havent seen any in forever. Anyone have some they'd be willing to sell off ? Ideally I want a couple Ribo's and Micro's. Then some Enzyme and Cyto. Few Nucleolus. Then I could slip in a few of the other kinds but they arent as critical.
Send me a PM - let me know what you have and what you'd want for them.
