Look at it on real world terms. Cyberpunk just released right.. shop 1 sells it at 49.99. Shop 2 sells it at 49.99. If shop 3 sells it at 10.00 wouldn’t you say they were stupid and illogical?

My argument is sound and based on fact. I don’t see why you would try to argue otherwise. There’s literally no benefit to cutting the price heavily while the item will sell at that higher price if you don’t urgently need Gil.
Cyberpunk is priced at $49.99 at most shops because the provide (CDPR) is pricing at a certain point due to their labor costs, and the stores want to make a profit.

There's no real good comparison to XIV because XIV has no labor costs or material costs other than time if you are willing to gather your own resources. In XIV you can price goods at whatever you like and still technically make a profit.
