market failure

[Lyrinn]

Well I don't agree with you, TC.

I'm on Goblin server and the economy is broken too, but the other way around.

NQ Darksteel Ingots are selling for 20k~50k and HQ Darksteel Ingots are selling for 100k~160k each !!

Want to hear something just as crazy? On Ultros, Tawny Latex (150 myth) is selling for 80k while Cashmere Fleece (500 myth) is selling for 120k. 450 myth < 500 myth but 240k > 120k, logic where?

This is specifically a marketing problem. I saw this happening early on and used shouts to raise awareness to buy tawny and not 500 items to force myth alignment, also I never buy tawny off the mb, always direct sells via barking in rev toll. If you have enough gil, you can easily force this problem to go away because here is the kicker... those people selling those 500 items at 120 in your case? are just as willing to sell tawny at 36k!

Also I'll edit this and throw this in... I also do take advantage of this opportunity by selling terminus putty for large profits in bulk, I make around 100% profit margins on these... buy 1m in tawny, get 2m back... not a bad deal
