So what's there to do in Velious anyway?

Despite all the nostalgia centered around EC, i think the bazaar benefited everyone.

From people actually being willing to sell their low end items instead of vendoring, to sellers being forced to compete with a more realistic inventory of what was on the server...not just against the people who are online and actively selling.

Yeah, you didn't get to have those awesome immersive haggling convos with people all day...so sad.

I will say that it was nice to actually be able to find what you were looking for most of the time, and be able to compare pricing if more than one person was selling that item. But I remember quite a few times when I saved up for an item and I thought I had enough money for it and when I found it in the bazaar it was 100+pp more then I thought it would be. At that point, I wished I was in EC because I could send a tell to that person to see if they would drop the price or offer to give them the money and another item in trade. You would rarely get a reply from a bazaar trader if you wanted to offer a trade for an item. That part sucked, but I guess it is just a small detail.
