    Besides, it isn't really a supply and demand issue. Contrary to what I sometimes think, people on here aren't stupid, they understand the concept, the problem is that there's too much gold out and about from plat sales, and maybe from ally farming during limited release. It's an inflation issue. We see PL prices in the cs while we get SL returns on liquidation. It's unbalanced. Personally, I'm not concerned about what gear I got, if my toon has decent gear, I'm content. I'm just saying the economy is off.

    This is probably because of 1-2 things..

    1. It is a really rare legendary weapon.
    2. Putting it there for an extra stash slot, this happened alot in SL and PL

    Prices pretty fair to me at the higher levels ie 15 and 16. I spent 30 minutes farming the other day and made 800k . I hardly spend anytime farming but I know this isn't the case for all. Top gear should sell for top price tho and with people buying gold they got money to spend. Which helps farmers who get lucky but hurts casuals until they get lucky.

    The prices are already getting rediculous. People put Crap items up on auction for like 5k and that's for common stuff. There are way too many merchants trying to scam people and it happened on pl, sl, and dl so all I'm saying is that either sts needs to increase gold imcome or put a limit on pricing of certain items.

    In the time it took you to make this thread you could've farmed a elite chest and maybe have gotten a elite pink. Just sayin.

    Who's scamming? Report them if you have proof. Over pricing "crap" items isn't scamming, if that's what you're referring to. Besides, increasing the income won't solve that problem. All that will do is drive prices higher as people have more spending cash and are less reluctant to hold on to it because they can make it back quicker.

    It is not scamming if people know what they are getting and paying for and receive it as they saw it.

    Just because the price is not what you think it should be does not mean someone is being scammed.

    To be honest, there is nothing wrong with the system nor the prices. In the first place, sensing that an item is ridiculously priced comes from a subjective view of people with differing wealth hold. The problem lies in the fact that the game being on the app store attracts casual players who perceive this game as a 30minsgoalreachednofarmstillprofit game which is inherently a flawed view of any decently structured mmo with AL being included as 1.

    Since everyone view things differently, no common objective can be arrived until only 1 group of people with similar views is left in the game.
