Undercutting by 1 gil?

I really hope they doesn't do that, it would be annoying to start losing money without not being sure if you're going to sell that product or not. I hated that in wow.
And plus the "pvp" on market board is fun <3

It works just fine on Guild Wars 2, the only "pvp" comes from buy orders as people offer more and more for players wanting to insta sell their goods as opposed to listing for a price.

Listing for a price of course carrying the tax, which prevents endless warring going on there.

It lends itself to people aimlessly going back and forth undercutting each other by 1gil just to stay on top, there is no cost for doing so.

By charging a tax to list it, as opposed to sell, would vastly change the Market place

That will only lead to larger undercuts. Instead, people will just subtract the tax, plummeting the price markets more than has already happened. If the devs want to stop undercutting, they need a system similar to FFXI, where it's more like an auction. You can't see what list prices are just sale history. Buyers put up their best offer and are asked to increase it if no items are listed at or below their initial price.

This is like Wendy's complaining that McDonald's is having a 1 dollar drink sale.

If someone attempts to do this I undercut in small bursts to get them to lower their prices to the point I can buy up their stock and relist it at a profit.

Honestly though, the MB needs a listing tax instead of selling tax.

No, the mb needs a total revamp.

If you are a career merchant like I am.. then yes, undercutting by 1 gil is perfectly fine. Its the rewards from ACTIVELY checking the MB and your stock. If others cant do that... oh well. No offense, but Im out to see my stock sell 1st. I dont need to "crash" the market like this post would suggest to undercut by MORE then 1 gil.
