It's like people don't value themselves very much. But after playing for some time, I learned that there are market bots, gathering bots, and bots everywhere. Then there are those who have like 8 characters with 4 retainers each ruling the markets with discord notifications on price changes. I can see why people just give up and put their prices pretty low.
For me it's, "Crap... new Expac in 2 months and my retainers are full of crap... Let me see if I can clean this out and still made a little profit in the venture!"
