    Yeah, "inflation".
    Keep in mind this only shows the rogues. It's probably just as bad for mages/warriors.
    Don't try and argue supply and demand, because many of these items aren't even hard to get or rare at all. Some are, yeah, but the majority arent.

    Also, if this post annoys you:

    - It's probably because you are one of the price manipulations.
    - You're a dev and don't like drama (Sorry)
    - You're insanely rich and don't care about those who arent.

    Btw Emc, dw you get a pass.

    People always over list items on auc. What they do is list 1 item 3 times for super high and go around towns selling the same item to people claiming its merch price then scamming them.
    I made a thread warning about this, cryogem molds worth 80k ea. Someone buys them out lists 3 for 6m 5m 5.5m in auc then goes around towns pming people selling the molds for 3m each claiming its merch price. For them to be listing vanities on the auc that high. I don't know.

    yisus ... those prices are too excessive, since they increase the maximum amount of gold they think that they are all richs ... and the worst thing is that the players who do that already have too much gold

    Thanks for making this post Overbear. I tried telling people the same but you already know how it went. This is just overpricing and manipulating the market, hopefully nobody falls for it, hope Devs do something about it too since auction is barely usable, something worth 100k is listed for millions. People screaming "INFLATION" while some vanities that aren't in the overpricers radar are still the same price, same about gear.

    I get it completely trust me. Buts just gonna be hard to control tbh. You cant just force people to list at a certain price or tell them to not merch.

    For example...1) they x10 the gold cap, 2) Booty event made me millions, 3) House event made me even more millions!!, 4) Plat sale (i dont have to explain that one). Not to mention the players that farm like crazy 24/7, because i dont even farm like that tbh.

    Everyone has gold at this point and everyone wants to invest it or flip things. Now THAT is very hard to control unless devs make up some rule where people are now allowed to buy more than 5 items a day or something very oppressive... what they need to do is make gold sink and drain that gold. Such as event that requires gold instead of energy/plat. Or More vanites like Solid gold vanities.

    it is difficult to know, there are many players, and it is difficult to "force" someone to lower the price, they are like event boxes, the more extinct they are, the more they go up, in this case we do not know if they are stocking or something like that, I just know that players who there is not much gold now it is almost impossible to buy, and before they say the same as always, please understand, not all people have time like us to play or spend in the game, I am speaking for a whole, let's see if things get better, but prices have really increased a lot in recent times, and I am not saying that those who do not work hard have the same vanitys as those who work hard or spend, I am talking about "simple" vanitys.

    Another genius. I bet if STS got rid of Gold Loot completely, and BB hooks dropped to 2m. Everyone would still cry and complain about prices of items. Smh no one is ever happy.

    I agree there are some price manipulators here but normal prices of items in AL is never predictable. Today if it's high, tomorrow it might be low.. The price of a particular item rises, when people realize it's value.. Let me give u example of few vanities.. Till 7/8 months ago, Desert set was hardly 15-20mil, Balloon banner 30-40mil, Lucky jack set 8-10mil.. People never cared about this items when their prices were low and were affordable.. I myself saw desert vest rogue getting expired in auction when it was listed for 14mil (I'm sure Devs also noticed all this if they keep track of what happens in auction).. And see today people are going crazy for desert set and willing to pay 100mil+..Same goes for red balloons.. Why ? Cos suddenly they realized its a very underrated and gorgeous vanity.. So price increasing and people spending their hard earned gold to own those exclusive vanities.. Marvelous villian vanity was less old and rarer than desert vanity, still it's price went up from 20mil to 280mil+ now

    People never cares when an item is easily available and affordable.. They don't bother to buy it.. But once it's price starts increasing, they starts complaining.. Many people requested Devs to bring back Green arlor set rogue and they did.. And now see, it's still cheap as heck and nobody bothers about it and rarely someone wears it.. Before it came back, people were crazy for it.. And also you can't force people to list an item in auction for 'cheap' price.. If someone wants, they might list Red jester set for 500mil but all u need to do is ignore it cos no one will buy anyways.. I do agree there are some greedy price manipulators here but Prices are also increasing cos people are actually buying in higher prices, afterall it's their gold their wish.. If people stops buying, prices of an item will automatically go down..

    Shhhhh, I'm just exposing the truth.
    And you're wrong I'm pretty sure I've only made one on cheating, one of scamming, and one on price manipulation. Oh well I probably need a break.
