Tunnel rats...sit around all day inflating the prices of items and they are proud of it.

Logged in to give some items off my trader to someone for a newbie giveaway last night and saw a Circlet of Shadows going for 4k? lol'd.

Never had much love for the EC game. It's just numbers, not enjoyment [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Bazaar vastly superior to EC. No hagglers (or you can pretend to be AFK and ignore them). People undercut so the buyer has more power/deals. Don't have to interact with annoying people begging you to drop the price or lecturing you on why the item isn't worth your asking price.

Oh - Another thing I get annoyed with. People who think our current incarnation of sneak pulling is legit and how it worked back in the day. Nope, not even close.
Are you Sikorsky? I'm getting that vibe.

As someone who's had a long standing hatred of EC tunnel, I've had a pretty good time selling my items lately. Everything of significant value sold and made some people happy with solid deals. About 40k richer for it. Had fun. Sold a rogue his ravenscale BP last and he was SOOO happy. That felt good because I know the feeling.

YEA unfortunately the people selling low value items, people who need that 1k weapon, have a hell of a time

It's funny how sensitive gamers have become since the EC tunnel days on live servers. If you don't like someone's offer and you think it's too low to negotiate with, how hard is it to say "no thanks" and let it go instead of letting it make you mad? If their price is too high, why lecture them? People sometimes take those low offers and people sometimes pay the high prices, so just let them do their thing and ignore it.

PS. this wasn't directed at anybody in particular, so don't take it that way.

Or the people that don't even bother with a counter offer. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Yeah, I usually counter offer unless the original offer was just too far away for it to work. I do get a little annoyed when people won't even respond to an attempt to negotiate price. Could at least say "price is firm" or "no thanks."

I'm usually one of those, if I'm selling an item for 4k and someone says "take 2.2k? xDDD"... that's not worth a response [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
