I pay attention for those folks because that's who buys my low end items =)

Unless you mean the /auc lines where someone is searching out about 5 BiS tradeable items...
True and as i said it can be for real sometimes. Ive seen people /auction WTB a item and then turn around and sell it 10 mins later for same price. Hell i saw bouncerr one day buy a bunch of items for above market then hour or 2 later sell them for below market. He was on a alt at the time but knew it was him. You sit in EC long enough and pay attention there will be things that you see that make you scratch your head sometimes.

The guys that do the Casino's in the tunnel can make some scary money. So some traders bring that to the table plat wise.

I don't EVER want to accuse someone of RMT. Hard to really prove unless they try to sell to you I guess for real life money. But having a shit pot of trades does sort of raise a red flag to me. Richgirl comes to mind.

I've always wondered how well that works for the "casino owner". I always put them on ignore in EC due to the advertising spam. I've always assumed folks understood what a rip off they are. The house always wins. Especially with the EQ RNG running the show.

I've been tempted to see how many folks bite when my sales are super crappy.

I remember I did this once or twice in live. The first time, I landed those awesome Imbued Granite Spauldors (sp?) and learned quite quickly that dwarves need not apply...

Tell me about it! I've spent a good chunk of my p99 time across from T1.

I try to give everyone the benefit of the doubt. During two-boxing witch hunts I'm always paranoid me and the missus are going to get a visit from a GM just to see if there are two of us at the keys. That alone makes me try and see "what else" may be going on.

But you sit there long enough... patterns emerge...

I made ~50k selling in EC for roughly a month and a half. It was from flipping gear and selling a 48 monk for like 15k. it's not too hard.

I know Hungfuu/Hungfoo and hes an okay guy, sometimes goes on power trips (like he did at the end of the SS logs) but he literally, and i mean LITERALLY sits in EC all day, like rarely ever actually levels and shit, so maybe the numbers are a little exaggerated but he definitely trades ALL DAY.

Hungfuu has done many transfer's for me. Most of them involving items ranging from 50k to 100k in price and has never done me wrong. One transfer involved a net worth of 250k and dude was legit.
