So, essentially shut the market board down and make crafters sell by shouting or PF? I don't see that as a practical solution to what is less of an actual problem, and more of an annoyance. I mean I agree about the cost of things, it took me months to get Kos the Thav Bustier because on my server their price didn't drop to anything reasonable until something like 6 months after they were in-game. Then SE crashed the market by giving them out like candy in PoTD... but that's another issue entirely. However, direct manipulation of the market board as you describe, or basically killing it is not the answer - IMHO.
