Biggest reason they (51 and 53) are as expensive as they are is that there are flat just not very many/as many of the 55 equips in the game. Simple supply and demand.

Moog beat me to it. It is simply supply and demand. There is a low supply of 51 and 53 items. There is a big demand for such items from players either leveling or experimenting with builds. Like it or not, that is the basis of the price. Simple as that.Originally Posted by Moogerfooger
Agreed. Don't see the point of long discussions about what prices should be by some hypothetical ideal standard. As a trader I will price my stuff as high as I can get away with it. If it doesn't sell I'll lower the price. Couldn't care less if people think the price is "fair" or not - what I care about is whether it sells.

Hey, watch your words. Hypothetical is definately considered an insulting word. If you think this is an unecessary discussion, just say so in a proper manner.
Lighten up, Francis. He didn't mean it as an insult. Words/tone are often misconstrued in a forum format. I was personally totally struck by the almost arrogant tone of your first post....but chose to try to read what you were saying, not how I felt your tone was.

Sorry, but this response to Kalielle answer is just too funny. I'm sure there must be some list of unacceptable words in your mind, but they are not universally shared. Her response was completely proper, too. The Consignment Shop operates according to the principles of laissez-faire capitalism. People charge what the market will bear. She made that quite clear.
FWIW, I don't like it, either, but it's reality, or rather a semblance of reality in a fictional setting. I personally feel that the current system allows experienced players to rip off the noobs, and it's not how I like to be. But that's just me. I can have my ideals while living in the real world. Think about it, Skyler, because it's a lot easier to be happy this way.
Uhm... I'm not even sure what to say to that. Seriously, of all the things I have ever said in PL, this is the first that offends someone? I'm torn between being amused and being kind of concerned, since I didn't mean to insult anybody. :/
Hypothetical just means theoretical - as in, it's something we can talk about but it's not going to happen in practice since the market is what it is. I think you were thinking here of the word "hypocritical" - am I right? - which is a different word that I never used and has nothing to do with "hypothetical".

You didn't do anything wrong. He either misread what you were saying, didn't know what hypothetical meant, or read to far into it.
Yeah, I know... I'm tempted to sig his reply actually. My very first forum hate reply I ever received - feels kind of like a special event. Although I wish I had been at least given the chance to say something properly nasty to prompt it...

oh. hypothetical. yeah i misread it as hypocritical. you are right. my mistake. sorry. so all cool.
@chant its not really funny when a misunderstanding event took place. it will become hates if not clear up. even in forum, we should treat it as if we are talking in real group of people. because its where we share things and also learn new things that ourselves may not know.

The hurt feelings aren't funny, but the fact you TYPED (not misread) out hypothetical and thought it was hypocritical is a little amusing to .... some..... not necessarily saying me, but not saying not me either
Sometimes we just take ourselves too seriously.
to get set bonuses, does your set have to have same level as rest of gear?
