    Default The point of an auto...

    Just a little tip I feel like needs to be expressed for all the buyers an sellers..

    When someone sets an auto. That is the right then and there price. It’s like paying more to skip the wait line. When I ask for an offer just because my auto is high does not mean that is the only price I want. Most people want to sell their item in a timely fashion. For ppl fishing prices it’s different but if there’s an auto most likely they do intend to sell the item. However, from personal experience the auto is almost never the fixed price. So place your offer if you want to beat the c/o, otherwise don’t waste time. Ofc you don’t have to take my advice but it does help to be efficient with trading and help a little with the confusion of prices.

    Example of efficient trading:
    I’m selling an item.
    Lowest I will sell it for is the current offer of 40m
    My auto is 60m but that’s high for the item
    I will take offers until I stop getting offers
    Last offer I get for 2 days is 50m
    I will then sell that item for the 50m offer

    Example of in-efficient trading by seller:
    I’m selling an item
    My auto is 100m and current offer is 80m
    I go 2 weeks without a higher offer
    My auto is my fixed price (100m) therefore wasting buyer’s time

    Example of in-efficient trading by buyer:
    I’m selling and item, auto 70m
    Buyer asks how much I am selling
    I say c/o 50m auto 70m
    Buyer says nthx 70m too high or offers 40m

    Buyers place your offers for the items you want, sellers know the prices you want to sell your item, lowest you’ll take and auto price.

    Even if this helps just one deal go smoothly I’m happy. Most my deals go smooth following this practice figured I’d share a little insight

    Edit: Fixed prices and autos are 2 different thing btw ��

    I would rather sell items in auction most of the time just because of all the low ball strife from merching.

    I can absolutely relate to this..
    Another thing that happens to me is, when i have a c/o, lets say 10m, and a new buyer tells me his offer is 10m as well.....
