    I know what its called, I fail to understand WHY undercut to such a massive extent? What is the reason? Why do people not understand the basics of making money, yah I get it you want your sh*t to sell, guess what, it sells like hot cakes, put it 1 gil less than the others and in a few hours itll be sold, why go so far?

    You think thats bad? I want to know what rock some people lve under especially since I know people and see people buy copper ores for 200-300 gil a pop when you can buy them from the npc for 67. Either these people are extremely stupid, or super lazy. >.> Fact is the majority of the player base does crazy things we can never explain o.o its like trying to explain why cats meow. I have stopped trying to understand people, it just gives me a headache.

    When you try to sell something and someone undercuts you. So you undercut him and he undercuts you again. Many people just say screw this and undercut by a huge amount.

    A sells 5 Felt trouser 60k
    B sells 10 Felt trouser for 59k
    A undercuts by 1 k again
    B undercuts again by 1k
    A has enough and undercuts by 20k to scare B away.

    some people may play that way. but I dont. I just keep mine at a reasonable price and wait. eventually all shards will be sold but mine and mine will sell, but it just seems so stupid to me. need a blind bidding system like we had in FF11 (yah sure go ahead and troll/flame away cause I said FF11).
