Ok I will do my best to not make this a negative/bashing thread.

Thanks to Chinqlinq and Jhunwung I FINALLY got the Tele Mea scroll last night. I'm extremely excited because I can now finally get my Jujitsu Gi I've been trying to get for 2 months. So I went and did a couple things, then went to put my scroll and a couple other things on AH. My buddy was telling me about RSE2 so I started looking at those and noticed only 2 Jujitsu Gi's left. Something prompted me to check the going price on them. I about got sick. They jumped 60k!!! Why do people feel the need to price gouge something that does not make it's money back? It's even worse when you see one name listed multiple times, and the price steadily increasing.

Ok, is there ANYONE out there looking to sell this gi and not gouge the crap out of people that have been busting their butt to buy it? I would have gladly paid the 140k because I know it is a rare drop. But I refuse to give in to these gil selling, price gougers. Please let me know if anyone has one that they can sell reasonably. Thanks

I feel your pain.... Absorb Dex, a very much needed DRK scroll is selling for 400k a pop.

To me, that is beyond insane. It's a lvl 40 spell people.

Sure, the NM you have to kill is craziness, but why so much for one spell?

You'd think Squenix would re think their mobs, and allow a little bit of a level gap between the level you can equipt something, and the level of the mob that drops it.

Hey Mattea, try this one on. :-/ I'm leveling DRK in my static party and will be 37 or 38 tonight, and easily 40 by the weekend. No abs dex for this elf. :-(

/sigh. alas, SE makes this game difficult by making sure a fully equipped job is costly to maintain. but then again, that's the price for being a mage/war. you're doing 2 jobs in one dear DRK. ^^

Oh man... that stinks. I just bought this on Saturday... I must have gotten mine right before the price got jacked. I wasn't going to pay anything more than 140k (of course.. that's all I had...)

Well I decided to take another route. I, with the overly generous help of Kowalakiller, purchased a Tilt Belt last night to compensate for the gouging on the Jujitsu Gi. I figured the tilt belt gives +5 to ACC vs +4 from gi, and it's now 50k cheaper. Plus I'm sure this is one of those items that will go up due to it's rarity. Let's see them camp the BCNM. :-)

Next stop, Shinobi Gi. :-)

Bah

Someone just did this to the Musketeers Gun +1 as well in jeuno. All the last prices are 40,50,60...So I'm figuring "ok some idiot probably put it up at 65 or 70" right? I get up to 90k and still no go.

***** that.

This is where the JP's TOTALLY have the advantage on us :( Once you get to lvl 100 or so in a craftskill you can't be possibly losing gil even if you buy everything off the AH. And granted this is a HQ synth so it's gonna be more anyways.....But I absolutely HATE when people raise prices...Especially by like 30k or more...
