    people won't sell at the same price they are now, but it's completely naive to think the price of most items will drop to 1/10 of what they sell now. At best they'll sell for 1/5 but more realistically speaking 1/3 of what they sell now. It's even more naive to think that the same people encouraging this measure won't be the one overpricing, and/or buying overpriced items. Thinking that all the leathers and hides and junk items will go from 4000gil to 400gil is kidding yourself.

    If a Item sells for 5m now and you have 50m, that's ok.
    But once your 50 turns into 5m, that 5m item will have to go down to 1m tops, otherwise NOTHING will sell.
    Thats only 20%...

    It's naive to think that the economy won't work itself out into an acceptable price level after the initial shocks of 2.0 wear off.

    Prices go down and up every time. An item that is for 100k in the MW can drop down to 10k in 2 week and can be back up to 100k in 4 weeks after that.
    It is worth for what the buyer think it is worth.

    Oh no, I will have to buy my raptor hides at 1/5 of its current value because people are overpricing !!!

    Oh wait, I can sell my gigantoad skin at 1/5 of its current value because people are overpricing !!!

    Could it be that 2.0 pricing reducing by 10%, 20% or 35% doesn't have any effect since my shit will sell at the same rate that the shit I'll buy ?!?!

    (trying to adopt the same attitude)
