    I take it you never saw 2 people undercut spam each other by 1 second intervals for 1 hour. (That is possible when one raises it back up because it goes too low, then person 2 fixes it to be slightly under person A again and they keep going. Also you do that by having 2 copies of the item in question on 2 different retainers, so you change the price on one, then go to the second retainer cuz you know the person is going to undercut by the time you load up the second retainer.)

    I get the idea of capitalism but come on there needs to be some kind of limit otherwise you are encouraging carpal tunnel syndrome at that point. Personally I wouldn't do it, my health is more important but geeze some people are crazy.

    SE wouldn't just be affecting those people with this change. They would be affecting the people who put something up and "oh shit, I meant to add a zero" and now they're screwed. Or someone recalculates what something cost and wants to make an adjustment. There are plenty of valid reasons to adjust prices that would be negatively affected by something they really don't need to regulate for players.
