Idea against Undercutting at the Marketboard (The next.. )

[Kiyyto]

Hello fellow Eorzeans,

after having another raging episode on my end after seeing the Marketboards this morning I ask myself why people would undercut massively.

If I list up an Item; I match the current price best price and just wait and see.
I dont need to undercut my competetors because I know that this would ruin the marketprice.

Last Sunday, Ehcatl Sealant was listet dof ~329.000Gil; Right now its at 298.000 because ppl keep underbidding themself. So before I start a tl:dr;

Can't we just invent a system that will stop undercutting to a minimum price
that will adjust itself daily/weekly and is beeing calculated through
recent sales in GIl, Quantity and influenced by the Number of demands and suppliers?

So, you want impose your will on everyone and have people only be able to sell at the price you feel comfortable with?
How noble of you, to save us all from the pain of making our own decisions...

I would say that, except I've seen stuff go from 16K down to 3k, due to undercutters. And I'm talking huge undercutting over time. Looking at the many amounts in there, you'll see good undercutting practices, such as 1-500 gil, then suddenly a dramatic undercut as things drop by 2-4k. And then it takes the prices weeks to go back up. I don't know about you, but I don't like it when I have to wait weeks for something to sell that should have sold within a day just due to insane undercutting by idiotic people who apparently wish to LOSE money than gain it.

"Good undercutting practices"?
As opposed to what, the kind of undercutting YOU don't like?

It amazes me that you are openly stating that you want the developer to implement a system to protect your GREED.

Simply, YOU have no business determining MY prices.
To think otherwise is absurd.

Be happy I'm not on your server, I'd eat you for breakfast.
