5g for a Rhino Hide Tunic?? I think not.Follow

I've seen some insane prices going around lately. People have been putting stuff up for Platinum (!!!) and a lot of gold pieces. Stuff that is lowbie gear...not even that great. Rhino Hide Tunic for example. Meh, it's ok... but it's not worth 5 gold and 80 coppers. Hell no. And there was a cap I saw someone put up for like 8 plats.

Does anyone even HAVE plat yet? And the cap was nice, but I'd not have charged over 35 silver for it myself. The point is, yes...we all want to make money. But ripping people off is just not the way to do it... in the end it'll hurt you too because you'll end up paying jacked up prices for lowbie gear as well.

Coming from an evil Iksar... guys, come on. Greedy is good but keep it at a normal level that isn't FFXI style. It's way too early in the game to be trying to rip people off of their very hard earned gold ... plat?? oh come on.

Heh user card salesman, never thought about that :) I came across alot of those types of people in EQ1, and of the few I ever contacted I would tell them I had no real idea what it cost. The standard response back then was *If you don't know the price, you can't afford it*. Kinda funny too, cuz more than likely I could :) Rich druid I was...heh...generally speaking though, I rarely buy from /auction-ers. I like the nice quiet no-haggle happiness of the player market system much better.

Edit - And if you truly are gonna sell ALL adept 1's for 10 silver, please come to the Blackburrow server :D Level 20 + adept 1's for that price..wooooo steal of the century heh.

you know on my old server my level 6 priest use to solo Vox for fun.....ahem sorry i was in my own dillusional world.

Anyway its like these people are bound and determined to tank the economy in a measily 3 weeks of the game being live.Just undercut them, because these items will never sell especialily with people offering the same or better items for way cheaper....heh, their loss and our gain eh? Gotta love stupid people.

Also keep in mind that the game is brand new, with very little to tell people how much stuff is worth. This kind of thing will equalize, I think.

Not everyone is greedy. Last night I saw an /ooc for adept 1 Silent Blade, which I was looking for. I sent a tell and he told me he was looking for 10s. I replied back that it was a fair price, but I only had 6s.....so he said what he really needed was an extra bag (and 6s). Seemed like a nice fair trade to me, and one I will remember when I help someone out one day.
