You apparently don't know a ton of flippers. Most of them put the house out there and take bids for a few days or a week and then sell to the highest one. The only time you get it for a static price is if you offer them more than what they imagined they could possibly get for it or if they're strongly motivated to get rid of it, such as leaving the game or the server. And yes, I know this because I'm in one of the Discords where it happens. Frankly, the fact that flipping is a static price is a myth, and I'm not quite sure where it came from, but it has absolutely zero basis in fact.

There is a lot to criticize about this system, and its far from perfect, but to claim it encourages or even won't discourage flipping is just flat out wrong. Flipping only exists because prices are far less than what someone is willing to pay for the house. This explicitly changes it so that the house will go for what someone is willing to pay for it.
