Ok..can someone please explain y people drop pricing on the market by 10-20 upto $100`s per unit at a time?...I know some people can be desperate to gain cash sometimes...but im on Fast and cant see enough players on there to work out y someone would run the maket into thhe ground....Am i missing something?

As an A.Miner i have certain minerals and goods overflowing in my coffers, but have learnt only to post at 50k+ units. If i ever post at millions it gets returned as someone has dopped the price by $10`s or more?!!! Y??

I`ve seen prices drop $100`s in less than hour but only 5 posts making that drop....Are u lot mad!! I undercut by a $1 or 2 to make the sell...but undercutting by $10`s at a time just destroys the market...I have a certain mineral i wont sell so is just building up...which if u r on Fast u will know is just not worth selling at the moment...At the rate its going its gonna be selling at the same price as Raw Material !!

Get it together guys!

You bought from yourself Warmonger?...Did you have to haggle? or was it a straight deal, all above board?

the most ive ever had floating on the market was... 83bil food or around there, took about an hour to control repost it all :P i found it was faster to buy from myself and repost

Food was at 18 on RT??..Sheeeeezzz...and i got the hump with it at 10 on Fast!!...Thankfully down to average 4-5 now :0)

lol the trick is to buy up the cheap stuff and raise the price urself by reselling for more if not max price


and warmonger i got over 15 bill food floating on the GC:RT food market and ive sold a total of 1 bill all day lol. seems like 7 per isnt low enough for some, but for me its too low hehe, bring bak 18 per!!!

EA...i understand people undercut...but y so much? Its madness to undercut so much asthey are doin at the moment...Theres freedom of trade and then there is people with a few screws loose!

If i happen to be on when someone drops the price by a not-smart amount i snap it up and make millions...I have a few billion in the bank but im sure the guys with a few zillion must just laugh when they see people dropping pricing...Im in the wrong job...instead of sales i should be in accounting and take a cut of all their profits!

hehe, from expêrience, food makers on RT have no trouble making money, its just annoying getting the sales, but the cheaper the food the faster the sales, thats the upside

get used to it, look at the GC:RT food market, was at 18 now undercutting has dumped it to under 8 per...very irritating for an agri based empire wen none of ur food ever gets bought
