Putting a price and waiting one week to see if my items sold? what If I want to sell a large volume of items and don't have enough retainer space to sell it all in this way?
    Oh no, I wasn't really calling anyone dumb per say, they just lack the market know-how which was more or less what I meant. I suppose I should have said that a lot of players aren't smart when it comes to the MB. I didn't mean to call anyone dumb, so I apologize. There's also a difference between undercutting by 10-20 or up to a few hundred gil and undercutting to extremes. It's when players get into the thousands/tens of thousands where markets begin to crash. Personally, I will list a bunch of things and leave them be for a week or so, sometimes longer. This is when I have 5-6 retainers full of items to sell. Maybe more if I've been busy and my retainers have been kind. If they haven't sold by then (more often than not they don't, as I've been undercut a dozen times at least between the time I list my stuff and when I go to adjust the prices) I will usually go half off on everything if not more as sort of a "clearance" sale. Everything must go! There's nothing wrong with getting rid of your stock to make room for more things to sell. Players just...tend to take a high selling item and tank the price within a day. To me, that is not being smart. It is being greedy and not maximizing one's profits. That is what I and most other people have an issue with. All I can really suggest is not contributing to the undercut wars if you can, at least not bad enough to tank the price, but sometimes you simply have to ride the wave before it crashes.
