I did that once, but as a counter to someone who was camping their retainers and undercutting me all day long within minutes, sometimes even seconds after I would post something. Our retainers were in different regions, so it was really unnecessary. Luckily, it was gear he was doing it on, so I looked at the signature on the tooltip. Did a little research on the MB and I noticed that same character was buying large amounts of the materials needed to craft said gear. I was gathering mine, so my cost was basically zero. I crashed the market to the point where it would be unprofitable for him to keep up, and within a day, the constant camping and undercuts stopped. I bought him out and jacked the price back up to normal and never had issues after that. He was still listing, but wasn't undercutting constantly anymore.
