how is this possible?

thats no investment, thats stupidnes

no casual or average player would ever pay 15 mil for a pet, not now and not in 3 years


all I can imagine is, that all the nutkins which were bought were also sold from the same person via an alt char. probably a try to push the price.
but losing 5% of the money everytime, when he's buying the nutkin from his alt to trade it back and rebuy it over an over again...

And yet it works time after time in numerous MMO's. Mass inflation is present in every single MMO, and it's present in FFXIV no different. Over the past year alone already there's a steep incline to be seen on what people are willing to pay for vanity items and consumables. And as the total amount of gil per server keeps steadily increasing, this trend is going to continue ever further.

its still stupid to buy something which is worth ~5m for 15m in the hope to sell it in 1 year for 15.1m

and most vanity items drop in price instead of getting more expensive
theres even noone buying the pets except 3 or 4 different ppl who buy them over and over again
