I just hate that chain
...was sold to reseller, then to another, another.... At the end price is ridiculous, and noone buy that item. On the other hand, if it is rare item, and it`s beeing sold for uberhigh price for long time - people start thinking "hmm, maybe that`s right price". Especially that works on n00bs who don`t know prices.
I think one of biggest problems of
PE economy are resellers. Because of them so many good items are out of game, waiting to be sold for stupid prices. Looks like some 80% of auction trades are trades between resellers. They are most evil part of game
Don`t get me wrong - I`m not mad on some particular person, or don`t want to buy something and can`t afford it - I`m pretty ok with gear
I just prefer all those mid-level items are used by people who really need them and not collecting dust in trader`s storage.
