    Like honestly? Honestly?

    Thats not Undercutting. You obviously were selling them for too much. if someone can make the item for cheaper and still sell it for a profit, they will.

    I have to thank Square-Enix for the amazing job they have done recreating Final Fantasy XIV from Scratch. Especially the inclusion of Missing Genders which we petitioned for in good faith. This was proof to us players that the Developers are truly Sympathetic to our requests and that being honest and vocal can pay off with the amazing characters we have who are Female Roegadyn, Male Miqote, and Female Highlanders. Thank You SE, Thank You Community Team, Thank You Yoshi-P.

    The problem is, in a game you can't force your product to be superior by added bonuses for buying yours. which is why all MMO's fail.

    As soon as someone knows how and can make the item cheaper and faster they will sell it for what ever gives them a profit.

    In the Real world iPads are the most expensive MP3 player. Apple doesn't get mad because Sony, Zune, SD, and Phillips sell theirs for less because their product still sells more and has higher quality.

    You can't do that so you have to adjust. If someone else can sell the item for a profit lower then you are selling yours then you are overcharging.


    As far as WoW's AH, yeah, I appear to have gotten the Mailbox functions confused, It has been over 2 years since I even played the game and even then I rarely used the AH because everything was over priced and the gear dropped from mobs and quests was always better anyway.
