    Why are people resisting so passionately the thought of making a change to the market? Changing it to a FFXI style auction house
    would hurt nobody and potentially help alot of players move product faster with less stress. Also, why are so many of you simply making the point
    that FFXIV doesn't have an auction house? Have you no valid arguement against such a change so you opt to belittle people for using improper terminology?

    Wanna know something?

    I don't undercut, in fact I usually charge *more* than the lowest price (around 80% of the time). I spend about 30 min to an hour a day gathering/crafting and make 15-50k daily. Not a huge amount because I get what I actually put into it. When I'm not 'overcutting' I usually set the price to the lowest sale price.

    You just need to learn how to read the market, look for what's selling and what isn't. I'm not going to mention my exact methods but I typically outsell even at my higher prices. I could make loads more doing what I am doing if I put more time into gathering and crafting but I'm happy with my daily income just off what I gather/craft. This does not include other things I sell that I collect via dungeons/retainers/general landscape mobs/etc.

    The current market board is fine as it is.

    Undercutting is a good thing. If it too low, it is flip opportunity. Buy low sell high. A system likes this encourages buyers to use it. It is not set up for sellers to exploit and gouge buyers which will earn hate from the vast majority of the player base.

    I do that here and there too Especially if the item is a component piece that sells normally for say... 100 a piece and I can turn it into something else that sells for... 1000+ a piece

    I believe the market boards as they currently working as intended.

    They are mostly player driven, And If I craft for 1-2 hour I can easily make 300-400k in pre 50 crafts that all sell the same day I craft them with only 10/40 items being under cut from the price I put on.

    I for the most part normally only put on HQ items as I can HQ 90% of the time.

    Cost to make something 2-3k sells for 15k+ And it sells quickly so if you want more gil then that your just being greedy.

    Commendations.
    If I play dps I only give it out to other dps.
    If I play tank I only give it out to healers.
    If I play healer I only give it out to tank.

    Only if they should be getting a commendation.
    There are always exceptions to the rules!
