Scrap the marketplace system please

If undercutting is happening at all, it's only because the supply and demand are uneven.

No, undercutting is happening due to a desire to have your item listed at the top. I don't mind large undercuts to be competitive. But undercutting by 1 gil is a nuisance.

In a system such as FFXI's AH, large undercuts still happened. But small undercuts were not as big of a problem due to your price being somewhat hidden. Yes, people did it, but how much lower is your competition selling for? That's anyone's guess. Undercut by a lot and you're reaching the point of dropping the price, which is really no different to what happens in the current MB system we have on XIV.

On here, you can have a slow selling item, match the current top price, and within a few minutes of putting it up for sale, you have 5-10 of them above yours selling for 1-5 gil less. It's ridiculous.

Again, I have no problem with undercutting. I make tons of gil easily. But selling in our market system is a major annoyance.

One of the biggest problems in FFXI (including RMT) was how ridiculously out of proportion the economy got - how inflated it got.

This isn't an issue with FFXI's market. It's an issue with how much gil is in circulation.
