    youd think some of it is alot

    but alot of the time, the price is actualy lower then the cost to make it even then, until your in the mix tyring to do it, you may not even notice or understand this

    an item for 50k sounds like alot, but if that item takes 60k to make, its not expensive at all, its taking a loss

    and on 99% of items being sold, this is usualy the case

    those who dont craft and gather will claim up and down they are still being overcharged and it isnt the case, but they seriously are clueless on it cuz they just want the best deal anyway

    I was specifically talking about my server which I mentioned earlier where it doesnt cost 60k to make low level gear more like 8-10k yet more often then not you see it selling for around 80-100k

    low level gear has always been an oddity that is overpriced since no one wants to make it, so those who do, try to overcharge, and then it never sells

    remember, the price of an item is what people have paid for it, not just what its up for in the wards

    just because you see 20 listings for 60k, doesnt mean its a 60k item, look at the price history and it may tell you that they have never sold
