    I've made a couple million in Gridania, but it's really sporadic.

    I only bothered to post here, however, to say that customers need to use their best opinion on whether or not they're getting ripped off, just like when sellers put up an item for a price they need to not be stupid and put up items at a terrible or negative profit margins.

    I was able to get a very valuable item to me for 200 gil per when they're a synth of a 1500 gil item just a few days ago, so I bought 600 of them.

    Just remember, if you're selling something in LL or Grid, you're basically the ONLY source for that product. It's easier to see while browsing, and if the price is right, people will buy it. I like to think of using an "Out of Ul" discount of 15% when I'll eventually sell things.
    I'm just trying to present the discussion in the most open-ended way possible, lol. Trying my best to be ..neutral! On to your statement, how do I know what a discount is? A discount off of what? I have to go to Ul'Dah just to find out. So why would I not sell in Ul'Dah if I am already there checking the price?

    *gasp* Shush with this logic! A dev might hear you.. O.O

    /endthread
    Not /endthread. That's nice to know that just like everything else they blamed it on the crappy work of the other team, but do we have anything to look forward to?

    How do you know what price to sell an item for? I look at my retainer's inventory, and I have a huge list of branches and logs with no point of reference. Are they worth 500 gil, 5000 gil, or 50,000 gil? Who can say? Why would I sell in Gridania or Limsa Lominsa with those kind of lingering questions!
