    Default Supply and demand

    when items are high in demand it means the person or group that has multiple copies of this item should not sell.

    instead a player should wear this item and if someone says

    buyer ~ "hello are you selling that item. "

    the seller will reply with

    seller ~ "no im not. but ill sell it for the right price"

    that price will most likely will be extremely high. people get really pissed off about this and get really vocal too. but this isn't price fixing.

    if the buyer does not and refuses to buy the item. the seller couldn't care less because the seller wasnt selling it in the 1st place.

    the reason why you do this is because once the buyer buys your item. they wont be able to sell it right away.if they do its because they're panicking so they'll sell it very low.

    or the buyer could have really wanted the item so once they have it they'll never sell it.

    or lets say the buyer waited for you to sign off and a new buyer asks if they're selling the item they just bought from you.

    the buyer now turns into the seller applying the same concept. the difference is the new buyer is willing to pay more.

    notice how high and low prices play a role here.

    you know the saying right? buy low and sell high. do you understand now? the price is never fixed but flexible.

    as long as the item retains "demand and scarcity" the price only goes up. prices go up due to " demand"

    prices are not set by the community. that is a misconception pushed by players who dont know better.

    if 50,000 people existed in the game and one person had ghost set. lets say 49,999 people offered to pay 10k for ghost set. would you sell it just because the community refuses to pay what you asked for?

    lets say the each person in the community offered to pay 750m to 800m. would you sell it? the answer is no you wont . say your not selling it but your willing to let go of it for 20billion maybe 50billion.

    the community cant be in control of a item they dont own. the price is not set.

    Npc Vendors have items for a fixed price.
    platinum you buy is for a fixed price.
    store items have a fixed price.

    items that can be traded do not have fixed prices.
