You can create 8 alts on the same server giving you 16 free retainers and you can sell at 640 slots at the same time if YOU want to "controll" the market / prices. I'm personally against any attempts to "controll" / limit the markets (like so MANY many times proposed here and - thank god declined / ignored - posting fees etc.). You're either able to compete or not the same way as you're able (or not) to compete / participate in the high level end game stuf. Limiting others doing something you can't or don't want invest time and effort into si IMO bad. It's practically the same like asking SE to limit how much of each type of mob each player can kill per day because they killed 10 times more than you as they can play 12 hours a day and you only one and half - makes no sense whatsoever.
This is ridiculous, there are laws in the real world stopping people selling and undercutting competition in extreme ways, why wouldn't you want the same in game ?

Yes you are correct in some sense that it is up to the player to be competitive but some sellers aren't interested in being competitive they just want to sell their junk for next to nothing (in some cases much lower than the sell to a vendor price) and ruining the market for everyone in the process.
