Flying Chair Price in Tonberry Server

You're gonna love this. Well done Tonberry.

.. I am unsure about what I'm supposed to feel about this?

That's the kind of market on Tonberry? On Coeurl we had 3 sell for as low as 49mil before prices plummeted to 7mil.

Ultros sold a few in the 50 mil range dropped to 10 and now is sitting in the teens.

Right? Is that considered too low? Or...


Quite frankly now that the crossbreeding recipe is incredibly accessible knowledge (and uses easy-to-get seeds), I don't see what would make it so expensive? /shrug

Well it is a specialist recipe, for what that's worth.

and this what the market looks like on a server you cant buy gil on

Meanwhile over here two have been listed ever, one for just shy of 8mil and the second for 3.5mil. I anticipate an increase in availability tonight and a bunch at 1mil.

Just out of curiosity, what do you mean? Is there no rmt spam there or is something implemented there that prevents it?

there is no rmt spam on jp servers. No tell, NN, Shout spam.

Even GM found this odd. bots exist, but its looked down on to buy money.

it's not like it's a hard craft, save the specialist in ALC to make it.
how's other high priced things? like the shinryu wing vs the scale.

It just goes to show that some people have no patience at all and will spend foolishly to be first to have something.

also may want to delete the screen cap. showing off rmt websites may get you a temp ban.

That super secret website is Yahoo!jp, it's Japan's ebay(they use ebay too but I think Yahoo!jp is the preferred domestic choice) and there's absolutely people buying their stock I can check the feedback.

If the mods have an issue with a censored screenshot that's not different than just screencapping something any of y'all can look up on ebay they can handle it. It's relevant to the discussion, doesn't condone the action, doesn't link to the listing, and the overwhelming majority of people browsing the thread aren't even familiar enough with Japanese internet culture to know how known yahoo!jp is much less read any of it.

The chair won't be worth anything in 2 more weeks. I'll say it will be around 2 million as more people are planting stuff.

It was good while it lasted

Poor Adriana. :(

To me, it just feels like Tonberry is crammed with old ffxiv players who already are already Billionaires and are thrashing the market because they don't need to make anymore gil.

It just sucks for people who just joined the game and try to make gil out of it. But undercutting prices like this is really inconsiderate.

Tonberry Market = China Market, everything cheap cheap.

Alch is the most used specialty? I always thought it was blacksmith or weaver.

But yeah, regardless the price is going to tank fast everywhere and even out a little bit once interest goes down but still stay meh. Kinda like glazenuts.

Even on Zalera, the price is under 10 mil. If it's that low here, then I'd expect it to be right around where it is on Tonberry considering there are a lot more crafters and gatherers (and gardeners) there.

You need an ALC specialist for every new piece of crafting gear.

Or a Gil buyer. In our server there's a very notorious Gil buyer that always buys whatever gets in first in MB. I'm not sure how he is avoiding ban.

I like to think of it in this way. Older players are often self sufficient players. We know the market, we know what you need to do to make stuff and we just make it for ourselves/our friends/our FCs. Even more so when most of the population is very group focused (which rubs off on you).

Why buy when you can create for nearly free?

Yea it was a big bummer to watch it drive down as bad as it did, by time I put my extra up I was chasing against someone cutting by 1m went from 20 to 12 real fast. By that time I picked plan B.

There was constant RMT on Tiamat until about a month ago. Every single time you'd go to Limsa there would be RMT bots spamming site links in local.

is that a jp server? im only going by what a gm said last year. He/she was weirded out that NA servers had rmt spam jp servers didn't. was on tonberry for a while from 2.4-3.4. never saw 1 rmt spam

Boy am I lucky for managing to sell my 2 chairs for 20m total. :D

Honestly, with how easy of a crossbreed the chair needs I'd be surprised if they stayed higher than 750k-1m in the upcoming weeks.
