    The market saturation also has to do with the fact that there's absolutely no competition in materials. There's no competition to get that silver ore, so there's no limit on the silver ingots, so there's no limit to the amount of silver-based items on the market.

    There is a -slight- limit on gold and other things like that, but only in how often they can be gathered; You can still have fifty people mining the same node and collecting the maximum amount of gold from the node, and now with philosophy tomes being dime a dozen on the markets now, there's little to no limiting factor in regards to the Darksteel/Vanya/etc sets.

    Let everyone be able to make everything, that's fine. It's the availability of the materials that's letting every single crafter throw one of every item up onto the market.
