All you had to do back in the day was ask your guild or /ooc to price an item. And being fully immersed meant reading 1000s of these price calling messages, giving you an idea of what most common items were worth. If we're going to ban the auction sites, why don't we just ban the wiki too and make people buy a hard cover strategy guide for fifty dollars.
Don't remember who said it, but really stand firm on your prices. I've had so many times where people would try to shave off 500 or 1000 plat from my already more than fair price, only to proceed to buy the item after I say something like "***pp is already a great price." Truth is, I enjoy giving people who will actually use the item a good deal, but now that everyone has mules in EC, you never know if they're just a reseller looking to start a rip-off chain.
