    Guess i need to specify what i meant, since it looks like so many people think i'm one of those idiot greedy people that sells things for rediculous amounts. my ranting was mainly directed at farmed items, and ones that can be fairly hard to come by. No where in my post did i ever advocate that it was "fair" to charge 100k for a 100g pair of earrings (have NEVER seen that, is that a thing somewhere???). i never stated any direct "what is fair" rules, though i saw some good suggestions to put a stop to rabid compulsive undercutters (making people pay a fee BEFORE the item goes on the board, is a great idea). If you aren't sure what i meant by what i said, please, don't assume what you want, i'm not stupid, nor am I a greedy person. I just want what i put in the work to collect to sell for a fair price, and things that are crafted, not be sold for 200x their price, or 3/4 of what the mats to make said item cost. Just saying there's a problem, that we could find an amicable solution to.

    But that's just the thing... what you consider a "fair price" is most likely overpriced. To you it's "fair" because when you crafted the item you bought the mats at X price and are selling the item at X + some % profit margin... but you bought overpriced mats. So to everyone else, your price is too high, even though it's may not be much higher than what you paid for the mats.

    You have two options: buy up the cheaper items and resell them at the price you want to sell, or take a loss and learn your lesson not to buy mats right away at the beginning of an expansion.
