Hey so, if you undercutters could start undercutting on some Groundsloth pelts, I'd be real appreciative of that

Decided to move off the Gazelle accessory market recently since they're selling much slower and for less gil lately with the new gear, so I priced my last few cheap to clear with a good 10% undercut. One guy who is a regular seller on that market has been undercutting my clearance items like crazy. He's literally halved the price of his market over a few days. Doesn't hurt me at all, rather amusing though
I don't have much of a problem with undercutting, except when it's excessive. Lately, I facepalmed over some guy trying to control the mame shiba market. Dude was selling like 10 of them, all at the lowest price. As usual, I sold mine a bit onver the minimum. Next day, price had been cut by 20 000 gils. Just this time, I undercut by a mere 2 000 gils to see what happens. 10 minutes later, he had cut all his shiba by 20 000 gils. I don't understand those people.
can you send that guy to Luisoix?I don't have much of a problem with undercutting, except when it's excessive. Lately, I facepalmed over some guy trying to control the mame shiba market.

“Even the strongest of opponents always has a weakness”
Sometimes it's an aggressive "get off my market" tactic. He wants you to see that if you undercut him, he'll drive the market into the ground, thus hoping you'll give it up in disgust as unprofitable and move to a different market.I don't have much of a problem with undercutting, except when it's excessive.

Wish I could
Yeah, that's why I actually rose the price after that. Didn't want to play this little game. Funny thing is, I sold it shortly after that, certainly someone who don't like the market controlling type.
No, sometimes people will do that to bait aggressive undercutters and then buying them out.
10 of them? Damn. I thought the dude on my server who undercut everyone else by 300k with one Mamaeshiba was bad enough.I don't have much of a problem with undercutting, except when it's excessive.

Lately the undercutting is getting really bad. Almost all the food isn't worth crafting; it makes no profit on its own. And a lot of the gear you sell at a loss versus selling the mats themselves.
It pisses me off actually. I was in a war for 3 weeks on my server over the night pegasus whistle. Started out at 27 million and a guy kept undercutting me until it sold around 15 million. I wish you could know who was really doing it but it would be a violation of TOS I imagine. It's just really annoying and you need to live in game on the marketboard to constantly do it and when I'm out or at work and log in, I find my stuff undercutted D:
