The market sucks

[Reiker]

On P99 there are two types of items auctioned: rubbish and over priced shit. Don't bother trying to play the market with dudes constantly spending hours of their life try to sell an Advisor Robe for 1.5k

I swear there's one transaction for every 50-100 /auctions. EC on live was way more fun because people were way less retarded about selling their crap.

Yea advisor robes are extremely over priced here lol, as is most everything.

I have no problems with the market as it is. I sell shitty noob stuff cheap and the occasional Shralok Pack, or lots of Spider Silks for decent money. This is great because it helps me make a bit of extra plat while I don't feel like killing things while also helping nooby tanks who need a Shiny Brass Halberd or some other noob junk. Honestly "playing the market" is more of a concept for games like WoW or Perfect World where the majority of players are idiots and will spend too much for too little.

Yup. 500pp for Dwarven Work Boots. 150pp for ONE jagged band. 200pp for a PGT. Ridiculous.

Prices are what the market will bear. You aren't required to buy everything listed, and I certainly wouldn't seeing as how it's overpriced by 25% usually.
Some prices are up (lol Dark Reavers) because of demand for the 30000 new SKs and SK alts rolled.

Know what to farm, and where to farm it, and you're just fine.

Awesome double post there, and I can't edit it because of RnF.

I have no clue how many people I have financed with my tradeskill addiction through buying hundreds of stacks of spidersilk, spiderling silk, eggs, etc.

Hmm, so if an item farmer was smart, they would spread some sort of disinformation about what the class du jour is, and make bank selling the class du jour popular items off. How many SK's are there now?
