    Price fixing won't be any more or less of an issue than it is today. Undercutting in fact will prevent any real issues with gouging. This stuff is all a non-issue. The key similarities between this economy and any economy are the very reasons why this is not a big deal and people are blowing itway out of porportion.

    because so many things are going to change when 2.0 comes out, all kinds of things will change in the economy as well- it is pointless to even try to predict how people will behave.
    SE monitor the economy? I cant laugh hard enough to see how wrong this. They wouldnt have fail Atomos incidents if they did.

    Its not pointless to predict, if you think it is, then dont predict it, dont argue, leave the thread, go somewhere else. I want to predict, I like predicting and testing my knowledge and seeing the outcome, its something I enjoy and partake in. If you cant handle that, then that is your problem. I am here to debate my prediction.

Because it's not true, and take an extreme risk in doing so, as nobody knows exactly which items are going to be valuable (and this is why SE cautions players as such).
    This is very rude because you in turn could be saying "don't come in, its too risky and u should stay poor". People can choose what they want to do, don't say my opinion is false when I have my arguments as to why your argument is false. But I am not saying its false, I am saying its a possibility, a possibility I dont think will happen but an outcome that can occur.

    If people cant think for themselves and go "omg a man on the internet said this, we should totally do it" and not think for themselves, that is their problem not mine.

    Dont be arrogant to say what I believe is false, wrong and incorrect when I can easily say the same about you.

    I am not saying redenomination is to blame, I am saying it creates a window to exploit, those exploited effects will cause drastic illness to the economy that it may not recover from.
