Cross world Market good or bad?

[Krotoan]

Thats exactly what i am doing. I am just doing fates and white scrip farming and earning more selling crafting mats and meteria. The post was just to see what other crafters feel like. But its been flooded by people white knighting it. We are the villains for overpricing stuff >.>

well.. yes? If people are managing to get by selling for a lower price what you used to sell for an extremely high price it does seem like you were being greedy. Considering you yourself were expecting to be called selfish it's hard to imagine you can't see this at all.

..crap sorry.. logic again. My bad. Here's someone who would sympathize with you:

Wasnt trolling . I like how you took the sarcastic comment out of my explaination and quoted it.

I'm one of those buyers the OP doesn't care about, but on NA, not EU. However, let us say I have 33 mil. I know of no 'rich person' who thinks there's no difference between a 20 mil dress and an 8 mil dress. Buyers are not stupid, and rich buyers are usually the least stupid as they know how and when to spend/invest. I would definitely buy the 8 mil dress and use the leftover 12 mil for other things, or just keep saving it. When buying full 450 sets for my 80s, I hopped to every single server for every single item in my data center (finding that Faerie, surprisingly, was the cheapest for almost every item by a few 100k per item). It is people like the OP who have no respect for buyers that will suffer the most. Crafters who can adapt and price accordingly will always get the 'rich buyers' gil...

I sold many treasure map crafting mats for 15mil each in stormblood. In shadowbringers even 3 of them dont add up to 9mil .

Again, I will not sympathize buyers in a video game. I am not looting their house nor are they needing that gil to buy medicine irl. The crafters who sympathise the buyers art the ones who want quick cash to buy a cottage in Goblet.

Overcharging is fine? Whats wrong in that? Its my business so ofc I care if my business goes down? You probably dont calculate gil/hr but i do. And now crafting doesnt earn me the gil per hour that other things does.

Sure, overcharging is fine, feel free to continue doing so. That's why we have an open market, so people aren't forced to buy your products due to lack of competition. As I said, if other people are able to make profit by charging a fraction of your asking price, it's clear that either your gil/hour calculation is off or you are seriously lacking in time efficiency.

[IamBetterThanYou]

It's hard to sympathize with you OP. Your posts are coming across as you whining over having to put in a modicum of effort to earn Gil.

I've been making enough Gil from crafting to be happy since the cross world travel function was implemented. It's really nice to be able to have things sell at a decent rate, instead of sitting on the board forever.

I can still make gil just not from crafting. I am making around 25mil daily doing white scrips and a few crafting. I just use crafters for myself now. I wasnt looking for your sympathy. Thanks.

Gets to a certain point you don't need gil anymore. I stopped selling/gathering with 4.2. There is only so much gil you need and I understand some love to make more and more but after you hit the billions of gil what is the point really?

Many other things I can do with my time. The cross market is good for most people especially buyers.
