No you don't....please explain why there would be a lack of product? People are already openly forming groups to perma camp fungis...

Also I'll point out a again that you're one of the guys that is TRYING to make the price rise.

dam server still not up so I'll dignify this ignorance with a response...

"Lack of product"

I will explain this to you in real life terms.

Lets say the King is a factory. The old factory had kings being spawned 24/7 because it only took two people that could safely afk camp for 26 minutes between pulls. Thus the product was flowing into the market at a rapid pace. I would say an average of ~4 fungis generated per day.

The king is under new management now. The factory has changed. Now you need several people camping in a very less afkable spot, meaning more need to pay attention constantly, meaning less people have the time for it. Combine that with the need for more people on the production line, they get tired. Need a break. King pulls stop because new workers need to be recruited.

Less new fungis are generated every day. That adds up to "Lack of product" - People roll new alts every day. People finally farmed enough money for a fungi every day. Because nearly *everyone* wants a fungi, or 2 or 3.

ps. server come up plz

^Except that has nothing to do with current fungi prices, and the fungi market will only feel the effects of that change somewhere down the road. The supply curve will slowly shift left, it doesn't happen in a week or two.

Most of all my information is concerning the future. I'm a forward thinker because the present is obvious. Not trying to sound pretentious btw.

Only those desperate to sell or are uninformed are selling fungis for low prices. That won't last long and sure there are tons of fungis in existence but the fact that their functional and practical value is so high people keep them instead of selling period.

The overall trend is that platinum becomes less valuable relative to items as time goes on. If you look at the prices of BiS and Unique (Effect Wise) Items from 6-7 months ago, you'll notice prices have slowly increased to 150-300% of their price from then. There's dips as the market becomes temporarily saturated and people are trying to get rid of their items, but the overall trend is up after the initial plummet (the first drops of items obviously don't apply).

See:
Bone Clasped Girdle
Cloak of Flames
RBB
Tranquil Staff
JBB
Tolan's Bracer
Earring of Essence
Idol of the Thorned
Cobalt Bracer
Enshrouded Veil
Spells such as Torpor
etc.

There's several exceptions (SoShielding since Chardok AE groups comes to mind), but nerfing invis pulling means you're going to see an increase in the price of Royals loot, Fungis, and Howling Stones BiS/unique loot.

Meh. All they gotta do is destroy a few hundred million duped/rmt'd pp and the prices will get more reasonable. For a little while anyway.

But thats not true... there are people who plan to just poopsock it nonstop in shifts.

IE same number of fungis popping out of your factory. You seem ignorant or just purposely misleading.

It's this. EC sellers use every thread to try to convince people why they should be paying high prices for their items.

Probably mentioned already, But now that invis pulling is nerfed. People can no longer duo/trio it. I know on red server, This made farming it very easy since compared to blue. There is either 1 group in seb, or nobody. On blue I have seen that place you can walk camp to camp with no aggro at prime time. Either way, Pre pull nerf fungi's were 60k easy on red. Now they spiked to 150k minimum, And as said again it is hard to find a group to go sit at king area for 10+ hours compared to how you used to easily be able to pull it up through the water solo with a smaller amount of people who can put in more effort for more reward. Either way I can't speak for blue economy as I don't know much of it but red fungi prices will only go up as time passes.
