    Not sure what you mean. The arcane set? There's also like 5 going for 1000 or less. Just because someone puts a price at a million doesn't mean it's worth it o.o Most all the Forerunner stuff is less than 20k right now. So I fail to see the logic here...

    The plat gear is what I am talking about.

    As far as the price it is worth what someone is willing to pay for it or feels like paying on their demand for it.

    The point of this was people are thinking this is going to be the next big way to roll in that cash and it has already started.

    Give it a couple days as with any type of economy once others start to see items being put up higher they will either match or just undercut a bit.

    All it takes is ~5-10 if not a bit more people to price their items around these figures and the trend will happen. If you saw 20 people selling the same item as you for 1 million would you really list it at 10k? Very doubtful.

    The forerunners...like I said. And people won't list at 1 million continuously when they're only selling for 1k. It cost 50k to list that and it will not be sold. It is not worth it. With how the tax on auction is taken at time of listing, this becomes a buyers market. Because sellers want to sell their items after only one listing. It feels like you're the one selling for 1 million and just trying to drive prices up. Too bad it's 1 vs 10,000.

    Edit: Plus the weapons if anything will be sold for least. There are other weapons that look like them. The names don't even have "Forerunner" moniker in them. The only thing that has real value is the body armor IMO.

    I actually just finally posted stuff on CS today first time I have even used it and nothing I posted even was over 100k. Driving prices up is not something I do I actually go anywhere from 15-30% lower than the lowest price on the CS.

    Not to logic troll you but 10k is probably about right. A heavy volume of a certain item at market generally indicates that the item is of small value.

    You can get in a lot of trouble thinking this way. I'm a merchant in PL and a very successful one at that. And I can tell you that people who think that the CS is a price guide are a big reason why I'm so successful at merching. They are the targets, plain and simple... And they are very predictable. I'm not going to say anymore than that as I don't want to give away my "trade secrets", but let's just say that people who use the CS as a price guide help me out immensely.
