Has anyone else on gilgamesh noticed all the price manipulation today? snipers have long history of sales around 190k then one and suddenly all the ones after are 80k... the same has happened with lots of other items eg Astral ring, Victory ring, Fowling earring and more. (keep trying to buy a damn sniper for 80k) One item, Unji has gone up to 300k after having solid history at 100k which is different to all the other items. Due to the scale of it, it has to be rmt, but its just left me jelous wanting these items for the cheap amounts even though i wont get one unless a real player falls into the trap /shrug.

Anyone else noticed/got any views?

That's the usual case. If you had the income atm, you could play the AH pretty well.

Buy a few different things, couple of Astral Rings, couple of Snipers Rings, etc etc. Put them on AH when prices "spike" or "go back to normal" assuming the prices are lower now than they normally are.

That happened with Emperor Hairpins about a month ago on Phoenix. :(

They would go down to 200,00 then it was all bought up and resold for 600,000. I camped the AH hoping to get lucky but they are so quick! And I feel so bad for everyone that sold theirs for 200k. The price is currently back at 600k now.

LOL! and they ban honest players who garden WTF SE?! Even if some of those players aren't RMT that are fixing prices, I do believe that is against the ToS. They really ought to ban them.

I'm just surprised to see a lot of stuff I bought a long time ago raise in price. I'm trying to sell my Blackjack and I don't remember it being 500k when I bought it.

Price fixing isn't a bannable offense.

Chiv Chain, Fowling Earring, Minuet Earring.. Price adjustments being done on those and others by alot of the same I had posted about a month ago. No one cares till it effects them, and it when it effects them, those around ya just tell ya to quit wasting their time by making them aware of it.

I had already made SE aware of similar activity then.. nothing happened then, unlikely that anything will happen now. Just stop buying/selling stuff for a week or so, and it'll go away again. It's sad, but ultimately pointless to try and change things. Just try and protect yourself by checking price histories on here, and make your friends aware to save the from doing something dumb like selling a Chiv Chain for 70k.

Hi minus :)
I have been noticing the AH price manipulation ever since I bought my Chiv Chain a while back,there were some listed at 80k which was well below the usual price..........I did try and get one at that price but couldn't .lol

Have you done your limit break 2 yet? I need to do that on Shayala so if you haven't done it can you let me tag along when you do please?

Oh well,I thought you might have done it already when I saw you were in Xarcabard last night.
I obviously have done LB2 on Miala as she is level 60,Kiroko helped us and we ended up alliancing another group who had just wiped whilst trying.When me (Miala) and Hugh tried it on our own we wiped twice.lol
I have been stuck at 55 on Shayala for ages now :( nobody wants to help kill those NM's. I guess i'll just have to hang around and hope another group kills them and I can nip in and get the key item afterwards.

I have never seen any of the drama you sometimes read about on this site.

If I can help you with anything at any time just let me know!
