Can't get any gil, if your world becomes equal to 3rd world, while other worlds profit from our trashed market.

Large undercuts don't destroy the market unless the demand wasn't there in the first place.

I've had players undercut me in my niche just for things to bounce right back to my standard price.

I've undercut others by large amounts when I wanted to unload something fast and I'm pretty sure the market jumped back to their preferred price once my item was gone.

What destroys markets is oversupply. Why post 10 of the same item when a brief check of the sales history shows only 3 of the item selling each week?

So what you're saying is that we should keep doing what we're doing to make a profit off of you? Sounds like a great plan to me.

Undercutting by 1 gil is more profitable than undercutting by more. I don't understand why people undercut by more.

I never buy anything from those sellers and I love undercutting those people buy 1000, 10,000. And yes I'm one of those people who takes a 200kitem and drops it 20-50k at a time. Its just satisfying.

Feel free to flame, I don't revisit old posts.

Dopamine.

The pleasure of slicing prices down in half. And yeah, is a waste of gil. And who cares? I have more gil than i'll ever possibly spend: Might aswell have fun with it.

I won't flame u but I will ask that u stop ruining the market prices by dropping em so low, some of us are trying to make what gil we can as we are more battle class players then crafter players.

I usually under cut by 1k so I can keep the market on said items at a steady rate.

I undercut by more if I want things to sell faster. Not much else to it really.

Firesales are good for reclaiming inventory slots so I can then complain about not having inventory slots about an hour later when they get filled again... >.>

You're spending more, and selling for less. If you don't see the fault in your logic, then okie dokie. I wouldn't start up any RL businesses anytime soon if I were you.
