The warrior who uses it saves himself spending 150 plat and has therefore made 150 plat from looting the item.

Therefore if you looting the item to sell means you value your 50 plat over the warrior's 150 plat. This is greedy.

#economics
(Hopefully no one takes this too serious)

It's not even your 50 plat. It's a 1:6 chance to get that 50pp. How much could you sell your roll on jagged band for? 10pp? That is what you are sacrificing to give someone a gear upgrade. Not to mention it's a waste of everyone's time.

Obviously things change when it comes to 1k+ highly sought after and liquid liquid items. Greed rolls on fbss and topor make sense. On a jagged band? Not so much.
