When the mats for a synth i'm grinding on are 1/3 of what the finished product sells for, i see no reason to maximize my profit. Especially if i'm going through a lot of synths. If something cost me 3-5k gil to make, and the lowest is selling for 15k, i'm going to undercut to 10-12k and sell/make as many as i can as fast as i can.

Undercutting is not a problem. What this thread is suggesting is similar to price fixing. "Let's all set our price high, and the first person to list it, will sell."
You and people like you are the reason stuff sits on your retainer for 3months. There is always someone who thinks just like you that bombs the price of many items. When things should be worth something.
