Second, under-cutters are healthy for the economy, this also ties into why people should be allowed to adjust their prices freely. Under-cutters will try to sell for less than the other person even if it means by 1 gil, this will drive prices down to equilibrium which is good. The reason why you're seeing a lot of under-cutters right now is because the game and it's economy are still relatively new, it's in it's infancy as people are still in the process of figuring out where supply and demand would meet. This has nothing to do with the economy being 'bad', but rather with the economy being new and structuring itself. It seems your post isn't really about the economy, but rather you are just being angry that you can't sell stuff due to your competitors.
