So what's there to do in Velious anyway?

Despite all the nostalgia centered around EC, i think the bazaar benefited everyone.

From people actually being willing to sell their low end items instead of vendoring, to sellers being forced to compete with a more realistic inventory of what was on the server...not just against the people who are online and actively selling.

Yeah, you didn't get to have those awesome immersive haggling convos with people all day...so sad.

Absolutely.

The Bazaar allowed you to go AFK for the night while selling those runes/words/pages/sarnak blood/etc. that only a handful of people on the server wanted at that time but for them it was highly valued.

Fortunately I haven't run into the PITA haggling that I remember from live. Generally I'll cut the price from the 30 day average, someone will try to negotiate me further, I'll refuse because I already cut it, and I'll make the sale.

Or someone is selling, I'll buy at the lowest point of the average, and we'll meet somewhere in between. Maybe it's because we're all adults now but I haven't run into too much douchery.
