That’s a great solution if everyone does that. But when half of the sellers will immediately match or undercut the lowest price, you need to spend a lot to put it right. And it only takes one person to drag it down again. Becomes too much of a gamble.

And there’s absolutely a reason that those items should be 8k... which is that the items being made with them are selling for 1 million plus.

It’s going backwards.. it should work that the demand for the crafted item lessens, which makes the demand for the crafting item lessen. To reduce the price of the crafting item while the crafted item is still selling well is just stupid. And neither price should drop by 90 percent in 12 hours.
