This will force more reasonable prices. IT BENEFITS YOU! Crafters can have a stable income because equipment will be steadily created and removed. Materia IV for gear, as well as relics, won't be some insane price because of the same reason listed. You can't resell materia bound gear, so the materia prices will stabilize as well. You can make the feeble argument that I have no tangible proof for this, but anyone who paid attention in FFXIV can see that it's an informed educated guess.
Yeah, I tried to go over this in more detail the other thread last night and all that came of that was three pages of off topic posts. Sasuga lodestone. At least it's nice to see someone else from Sargatanas using their brain.
