Lets Talk About UNDERCUTTERS!!!!

[Nikkori]

I mean, come on, we all have done it once in a while, undercutting someone by a few gil, just to get the quicker sale.. i speak of the people who sit there and undercut by hundreds, or thousands of gil, forcing prices to where its not even worth selling an item anymore, and just better off vendoring it off. We ALL want to make money, can't we all work together and come to some agreement?? Lets work together, and find a fair medium to charge at base minimum so that everyone can have a fair share at making some money.

I hear you and agree totally. Nothing we can do really, people are free to do what they want. All we can do is control the market and teach them a lesson...but who has the time or energy for it. We can buy them out and lose some money up front but try to ensure a "fair" market value. Does not always work though...It is just something we will always have to deal with.

At a specific point, they would sell faster and for more gil if they sell directly to a NPC

If the supply really is limited and you get undercut by that much, you could always buy out the undercutter's items then resell them for your own price.

I have seem some HORRIBLE undercutting lately, like really bad stuff. Say something almost clears out on the MB, and before it was selling for 70k. Now its at 150k. You and a select few are trying to keep those prices high and theeeen comes the people that go OH HELL NO IMA SELL DIS RIGHT NOW! jfwjbfbgnf 40k!. When people do this it ends up selling for less which in turn drops the price way below what it was before. And i don't understand why people feel they need to list things for soo much less than everybody else, it just pisses people off and drives the economy down, aren't we all here to make money?, obviously said undercutters are or they wouldn't undercut just to get their gil lickety-split

I like the undercutters keeps the price low for me.

Even as a crafter-gatherer Im with this guy. If the price is higher than the buyer is willing to pay it just wont sell and theyll find an alternative. Secondly I hardly ever go by the current pricings as instead look at the history. Thats a better indication of an items desire to the rest of the server. I dont believe in artificially inflating prices up which even if you got away with it would only be temporary until someone realises theyve been had.
