    I, too, want to buy premium caviar for $1/lb. Strangely, no ones wants to sell that to me. I call price-fixing!

    believe what you want to believe. personally i dont care.

    There's a science to buy,sell and trade.

    Buy,sell, and trade has a meta. in real life and in game.

    Ask yourself which role is the most powerful/Broken?

    The buyer?
    The seller?
    or the trader?

    there are different types of buyers, sellers, and traders.

    there are also hidden factors here like emotions and etc.

    lets say a certain type of buyer really wants a item for a certain price. they'll resort to insulting the seller and confusing the seller with multiple accs just to " fix the price" to their liking.

    notice how much work this type of buyer has to go through to " fix the price"

    the reason why this type of buyer has to go through this is because being the buyer is Low tier. so they have to resort to scummy tricks to gain advantage. these type of tactics work on a type of seller who needs to sell a item immediately because they're low on gold.

    its important for sellers to understand that they have the most power in trade. this is why sellers would rather supply what people demand.

    the buyer isnt in control of the situation the seller is.
    the only time the buyer is in control of the situation is when the seller gives power to the buyer. so if the seller accepts anything that the buyer says thats the moment the sellers loses power.

    heres the thing the most powerful option in buy, sell and trade is to "bail". see people let their Ego's get involved in transactions. some people get so committed in a transaction once they reach a certain point they wont bail.
