Marketboard insanity

[Lyrinn]

So, for the people saying just buy out and reprice higher, here's a small tip from someone who makes effort to control markets: if someone wants to crash a market, they can and they will. End of story. You buy out my cheap item? I'll put up another at the same price. Do this a few dozen times and guess who wins? I can tell you it's not the person who now has a few dozen items they need to get rid of.

It's great for the consumers, of course, but it makes for an absolutely miserable environment for crafters (who don't have the capital or patience to play the undercut war).

If someone have so many supply for much lower price, why that item could be listed for higher by you?

In some cases, I think the "profit" for crafting is the 3000craft main tool... so that's why I often find crafting product selling cheaper than the mats. ^^;
