    Greetz,

    Lol That's what the price for this one item I was trying to sell looks like. 60k all week, doing well so I decide "I'm going to make a few and make some gil" well it eventually dropped to 40k, so I put it for 39,999, someone does 38k, then some idiot decides to be "smart" and put it for 7k, then 7 other people drop it down to 2k -.-

    I wish those idiots would realize, dropping it that much might sell theirs faster, but overall it's just screwing everyone else out of time/gil. And to those who use the excuse "it's my item, I'll sell it for whatever", that's a poor excuse, learn to be a team player and undercut correctly, it's not going to kill you to wait a little bit for something to sell for the correct price. All you're doing is killing the economy and making it that much harder to get gil, especially when SE keeps releasing certain things, like housing, that cost in the millions and instead of someone being able to make 60k+ off an item and get closer to obtaining one, you just screwed them out of 40k+ gil because you're in such a rush to sell something and don't give a crap about others, which you know, you should, considering it's a mmo, you know multiplayer.

    If it is not selling at 2K, it is not worth 2k. If firmly believe it is worth 40K or more, buy up all those 2K or items, you can 40K and get 20 of those, and then you just need to sell one to break even, and then sell another to be ahead 40K and still got 18 more you can do as you like.

They all want money and you aren't going to get money by working with merchants unless you are all trying to create a monopoly and share the profits among yourselves. There is no "correct" price, there is no fairness in a free market, and people do not and should not care about other sellers. There are no set rules for the game's free market and anyone who thinks there is or should be is only holding themselves back while everyone else rakes in the gil.

    If people want to be stupid with undercutting, let them. They'll be taken advantage of anyway.

    Sorry,but the MB isn't coil raid where everyone has to follow your dance. I find your statement amusing that you would expect "team playing" from a free market where the main principle governing is supposed to be "supply and demand". Maybe you should set up and form a static for MB in party finder like a coil raid?
