Extreme Undercutting - Should it be a violation?

See, I kinda miss how ffxi 's AH was set up. That was an absolutely wonderful AH And I have no idea why they left it.

Why should it be a violation? Competitive pricing benefits consumers, as well as vendors who wants to sell their stuff out fast.
I don't understand you people who sees anything which you do not like as "violation" "against policy" and what not.

Grow up man. Just because you aren't happy with something, doesn't mean it's a violation.

I undercut by one gil every damn time and I'll keep doing it. Happens to me plenty so I do it in return.

Whenever I see threads like this I think of Runescape and their Grand Exchange. Basically a market place where you can put up an item for sale and it encourages prices to be within, I think it was within 5%-10% higher or below the average sale price for the previous day. While I really dont like systems like that, functionally it works ok without locking a price but sets a standard price based on previous sales. So go play Runescape if you dont want a bunch of undercutting.

If someone undercuts you by a lot and it's well below the value of the item in question, here's a tip: purchase that item and sell it for a profit.

Did you happen to notice he REPORTED HIMSELF?

Is it extreme undercutting or are the other prices extremely inflated? Just because some players have decided that xxx is worth say 500000 does not mean that it is actually worth that - it probably only costs 2000 in materials. Yes you may need to level crafting jobs and gathering jobs to be able to make said item. Yes you may need a drop from a dungeon. But no it does not mean that you have the right to charge grossly inflated prices simply because that has been paid before.

However I would say that a player has the right to ask whatever they want from the market board for their items. Not all players are out there to charge top rate - some just want to offload items fast and are quite happy making a small amount regularly instead of a huge amount now and then.

I don't understand... It's almost like this is a sarcastic topic.
