Saw thread title, clicked hoping for some quality sarcasm and the usual half-dozen idiot gogoredteam +1's, leaving disappointed.

Will endeavour to post more gogoredteam stuff to satisfy your next browsing session <3

This is great.

The morale of the story is very low

Free market capitalism was such a stupid idea that it didn't even survive past the generation that thought it up.

Communism worked better, and we're still seeing the ridiculous fallout from that awful idea.

Grats on the pp tho.

Communism worked better, yes mass graves and enslavement is far better, I hope your not teaching anyone that. God these millenials are so stupid

This thread smells of dubious intent >.> but as champion of the free market, I must speak ^o^/


I am not sure I we the point of sharing this particular story in this fashion because all it will do aside from receiving a few nods of agreement is incite the emotions of the feeble minded.


On that note there is nothing wrong or amoral about the transaction. The OP stated the desired compensation and the buyer offerred less compensation to which the seller agreed. The item was worth whatever the buyer paid, because if it were not s/he, of presumed rational mind, would not have paid it. By paying the price that s/he paid, s/he [b]necessarily[/b ] receives the level of utility that s/he associates with the purchase price.

I think the OP's second post helps to illustrate this, though it demonstrates a strain of irrational thought too [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] People associate different levels of utility based on preferences which can fluctuate wildly. I remember a couple if years ago I paid 3k for a CoS because I had not seen many for sale at that time, I wanted one. And there was one for sale. I knew it was overpriced, but even if I hadn't it'd not've made a lick of difference.

Here is the important part, whether the buyer is aware or unaware of the average going price of an item is irrelevant because s/he has equal access to that information. S/he can ask for a PC in ooc, s/he can spend time in EC to learn prices, s/he can consult a friend or guildy, s/he can search the internets. Failure to do so demonstrates apathy or laziness. And there is nothing wrong with that! Most people actually behave that way anyway, making purchases based in what seems reasonable rather than exhaustive comparative analysis ^^
