    Well people could make money if they decided to stop selling everything they put up on the AH between 2-100 gil and start actually pricing it based on the cost of the materials. I've bought items on the AH and sold them off to the NPC vendors and have made a profit because of it. Some people really need to learn to check the vendor price and how much they are selling it for or they will lose money.

    This is EXACTLY what I did with FFXI. For starters in the AH, I'd add up the ten gil amounts an item last sold for. After adding them, I'd find the average by dividing by 10 to get the amount I should sell the item for. Say if something sold for 1,000 gil four times, 1,500 another four times, and 1,900 two times. That's 1,000(4) + 1,500(4) + 1,900(2) = 13,800 / 10 = 1,380. I'd then round that up to roughly 1,400 to be on the safe side by making a new amount by finding the average. I did that all the time with things in the AH and in my Bazaar, and I sold out really quickly. I had a lot of people saying I was reasonable with things on my Bazaar and they asked me to collect more. Quite frankly, over the years with FFXI, prices went all out of whack due to RMT and I lost so much income from making my Bazaar prices based on the AH prices. Oh well.
