I was gonna say, I under cut by half if not more most the time
I also enjoy selling items for less than vendor asking price. People buy them off me to sell to the vendor. I create happiness.
It's only really a problem when it's bots doing the undercutting I think.
"How does supply and demand work?"
I always undercut by 1 but it's because I want to get the damn thing out of my orbit, not out of malice.
Undercutting by 1 gil, no issue, its annoying as a seller but its ok. But when people come in and drop the price by like 10% each time. It tanks the values.
I undercut it by selling to vendor
But please continue undercutting materia by 50-100 gil from the vendoring value. That way I can keep buying it off of the MB for easy income. Thanks.
It's a Free market, literally with under cutters dropping prices
As if gils meant something in this game anyway
You undercut me? I undercut back. You dont undercut your god damm papa, you understand me?
-Angry grandpa
I undercut by huge amounts because people undercutting by 1 gil at a time will just drive the price into the ground anyway in a 1 gil cut war. I just want that stupid sale instead of playing the "I want to be the one that sells it for 1 gil less" bullcrap.
Tbh 1 way FFXIV Should do is follow how GW2 manages their player market.Though there's undercutting but the sell price to vendor isn't as abysmal as FFXIV. Even if certain item market crash it doesn't fall to example 1gil but to maybe 2000 – 5000 gil. As crafter and Gatherer its really annoying to spend hours in gathering and crafting items only to find out by the time we crafted a number of it to see the market of the crafted items crash to the point the materials cost more then the crafted item itself.
As a buyer, yes undercut as much as possible thanks xd
As someone who mostly specializes in crystal sales its easy to say don't undercut because consistency in pricing, but the market boarding, annoying lists high quantity bundles over lower quantity bundles. I specifically sell my crystals in lower quantities to meet the need of people who don't want to drop the cash for 500, 1,000+ bundles. And unfortunately my smaller bundles of 100 to 200 are swept down the list by the bigger ones. So I have little choice but to drop them by 1 gil.
Which then results with the big bundlers who drop it another 5 and etc.
Its a no win thing.
Honestly I'd offer to be someone's or multiple people go to gather and give them half the market board cost.
No.
I'm that evil person who doesn't only undercut, but breaks up stacks into smaller stacks to undercut and push you off. Market Board PVP at it's finest
Welcome to the world of supply vs demand, bois.
Undercutting happens in real life too. It's called sales.
If anyone ever under cuts me by one gil, I drop my price by at least 20%
Stop undercutting guys, I need to inflate the value of my unwanted item so I can get more of the useless currency. >:(
