    I was very serious. I just got off and gave away over 100 of the 25 green sets. Hopefully no one cheated and got multiple but it happens. What was really sad is many people wouldn't accept or clear out inventory for fear it was a scam. Is there really that many scammers out there? Anyway hopefully u got one, if not, hit me up in game as I still have quite a few left.

    All I know is you bought one of my items and ended up listing it at a hair over half as much as what I had it listed for. I have no problem with that, I made my credits. If anything you have driven prices down to a reasonable level a week or two ahead of time. They might go back up, and they may not. I'll just stash and wait.

    I think it's great that people are able to afford things if you can't purchase platinum.
    And I don't feel bad for the people who lost money when they were overcharging to begin with.
    I wish we had somebody like that in pocket legends for the sewer items.
    Last I knew the game was about having fun not making money.
    And I for one am having a lot of fun!

Ignorant uninformed accusations are good for no one and only stir up bitterness when we are just playing a game. If I wanted to control the prices and run the market I could. I dont sit around all day thinking about the SL CS. I am a former hedge fund manager and I enjoy the trading side of the game. Nothing more, nothing less. O sry I gotta go... Strange pistol just listed at 10994 (some guy named flowmin or something like that) 10288 here we come

    My character Auctioneer is temp on leave because of the low prices. If you dont like cs current pricing well, bend over. Complaining wont do ypu any bit of good. Ill wait on my stash to see what happens. Items were overpriced. Kinda like a vanity helm for 400k, lol. Yeah right. Was nice while it lasted though.

    Save your items until demand is higher. Be happy you can get items cheap. I know I am. I can save the money I already have and get items cheap. Or, you can farm as much as his guild did and do the same thing.

    EDIT: I assumed these were sales for your guild. If you farmed those yourself... you are a beast.

    Now merchanting is worthless until Apple release comes out and pinks are introduced.

    I'm not trying to flame or anything but seriously go check out the market, there is way too much supply and not enough demand. Already lost 90k on investments, and not making it back any time soon.

    Any opinions?
    I know I should not be laughing but going by things like the above this game should be taught in every school as an introduction to real life business.

    All I will add is welcome to the real world, check out the stock exchange, and see this enacted in real life, lol

Not trying to sound offensive here, but maybe you could do the same. I don't see how lowering the market price is a bad thing, it just means more items will be affordable for more people. And, as said, probably the prices right now are just ridiculous.
    How does he work for it? He shamelessly admits to purchasing platinum to earn a ridiculous amount of credits, and then purchases all of the market, if this is hard work I should buy platinum more and I load up once a month with 2000 platinum. He doesn't work hard for his credits in the least. I do have some respect for the guy though as buying and selling isn't easy but he needs to realize if he over buys, and then keeps under cutting people he is not only hurting himself but the market place in general.

    Sorry. But there is nothing shameless about buying plat. Its his money so he can do whatever with it.
    In fact. You should be thanking him for paying for your updates.

    He is also taking the risk of losing a lot of money from buying all the armor and then no one wants it or the prices some how go lower. But he has a good tactic because say if you buy all of the desert rat armor that means less of a supply. Then people will want it so you put price higher then bam he is making his money back plus more. Remember it's a risk. He not guaranteed to get all his credits and more back. It takes skill to do what he is doing. Say if I did that I bet you I probably would lose money. He's not being greedy he's being smart at doing "business". Just be happy some one does it so you can get cheaper armor. I've actually been in this guy's clan he is the nicest person you will ever meet. But the only reason I quit because no one was really on. Dopey probably goes on maybe a hour or two a day not even thats how good he is at what he does. He makes a difference for lower levels who need good armor ,but don't have enough credits. He allows people to be able to afford decent armor. It might annoy people who are trying to sell for a lot of credits ,but honestly items shouldn't be expensive their really not hard to get. All we do is clear a map under like 3 mins and usually get the item. I mean I understand some people want to make their money back from the stimpack and power packs I understand that ,but if a wise player and know what you are doing you will be making money in no time.

    So you are basically calling a guy greedy for making his own profit(and helping a BUNCH of people in the process)because it prevents you from doing the same?

    Talk about hypocrisy. Sometimes it's even worse than racism.
    Anybody can sacrifice a queen. The real trick is getting away with it.

Ur mad cause u cant make money, the problem is, u dont need any cus prices are so cheap...but u want it...did i read this wrong or what? Cus i dont see a prolem...

    If it's even true that he 'shamelessly' buys huge amounts of credits (did he tell you? Do you even know him?), wouldn't this mean he probably has worked his butt of to earn this money in the first place? To me, YOU're the one being greedy. It seems you can't stand the fact that someone 'sabotages' your credit earnings. Now, THAT sounds greedy to me. And saying he's 'hurting himself'... LMAO!
