Default Unite against pawn shops?

If people are interested its very sad to see someone give a good price to someone when two people want the item one would use the other re sells for a higher price 1 minute later. We should make a list of all know pawn shops to try to get them out of EC!

or if you dont like the way a person sells in EC you can just not buy from that person and just understand that some people derive their fun in this game in other ways than you

Wrong. Anything that benefits someone else and not me shouldn't be allowed. If you make money or get good loot you're a hacker and should be banned. Oh yeah ban soloing too. Actually, lets just ban enjoying the game altogether.

Just a reminder for page 2 on how to fix this.

Thing about this is that the people who rave about how fair and nice this is are people who have loads of money anyway and can afford to pay an extra few k per twink item. This kind of selling really hurts first-run toons and people without the means to sit in Seb or HS and get the drops that translate to cash, ie. people under level 50 or so.

So while this kind of thing is indicative of a shitty, selfish spirit, it doesn't really affect the majority of the population so nobody here cares. Not to mention there's nothing you can do about it.

Not sure what server you're playing on, but the low prices, and high volume of mid end twink gear have immensely added to my enjoyment here. I'm getting items at level 30 I couldnt get on live until 50+ when I farmed them myself wearing half a suit of mithril. Hell people give away gear that you cant get until KC levels.

I bet anything if you give this guy any item he sells it for booze. Well .. except for a taco.

As far as the thread, people who buy and sell do so by choice if you sell something for 80pp and the buyer sells it for 100pp why do you care? Don't really get why this is perceived to be an issue.

OP is talking about people jacking prices up. Regardless of whether they're cheap compared to live they are still more expensive because of this and thus harder to obtain for people without much plat. That's it. Learn some fucking reading comprehension before you try to pull me up on something because of your interpretative failure.

Pawnshops aren't all bad, they save you time when you want to sell something and GTFO of EC and they save you time when you want to buy something and GTFO. Most ppl just want to GTFO of EC, so they are useful.
