  • Aaarrrggghhhh!

    Another Maelin rant here-

    We have been in a blissfull economy for the past month or so with a plethora of reasonably priced Metallic Drake Scales in the range of 8-11K. Then *joy* I get a special order for a set of Elaborate drakkin plate on the same day we've sold a full set of Elaborate Moonglade. Which happens to be the same day two nitwits decide to collude and raise the price of MDS to 30K a piece! I also know for a fact they've been buying out any other reasonably priced ones because their stock is multiplying! Now we're out of stock on Moonglade and my special order person has to wait because of these DARLING people.

    WTB reasonably priced scales on Maelin please!
    I hope The Tribiunal finally kicks in and they don't sell a single scale. Oh and I've sent tells to all of them offering the very reasonalbe 9K per- no response, shock of all shocks.

    Lowest price I ever saw on Stromm was 18k.

    "The Tribunal" = new no-trade cultural recipe ingredients?

      Try to set up a Buyer for MDS overnight offering whatever you're willing to pay? Usually, these price-gougers buy for 3-4k tops.

        Gaell, I always have buyer up, only a few nibbles with me offering 9K. Considering I need a total of 30 scales or so it going to take me forever ;(

        The Tribunal= barbarian god of justice, get some justice for these wackos.

          Hopefully when the change to the DON culturial go live they get "stuck" with all those hides/scales.

            Ouch. On AB, the guys with the stockpiles of MDSs are still only about 12-15k, with a fair few people selling for 10k or less.

              Ouch Heynanni, I know I saw that guy selling one the other night for 30k and I went say whaaa? Then I just figured he was a noob and the baz had just crashed. This is bad news indeed. First ore, now scales and I've seen a few other tskill items being hoarded and gouged lately. Very disconcerting.

              I'll check to see if my mule tonight has any scales left you can snag.

                I have not seen Royna on for several days now. She had like 80 glossy drake hides and were selling it at a near gouging price when many traders had them for less.

                If she doesn't get back and dump the unsold GDH, she'd be stuck with them that won't sell even for 3 plats to a vendor.

                    Thankfully my wishes came true, others have come on and lowered the price to MUCH more reasonable- so I completed the server's first full set of drakkin chain

                    Grolyn I do agree though, GDH have been even more wonky in price than the MDS!

                      hehe,
                      price fixing does not work when you can farm the stuff yourself .

                      I control my guild bank and when ever some one starts buying at silly price I sell to them.
