Just saw some dumb fuck selling GEBs for 10k. This is the sort of dumb shit you only see in this sea darwinian dead ends. It's a fucking easy camp on a mob whose COMMON drop is not lore. That means camping it is easy as fuck and a shitload will be dumped into the market.

True, although on a technical basis, if he finds buyers at 10k then the market is essentially setting the price itself. The issue with MMO economics that's slightly different from real world supply and demand is that in MMOs it's somewhat easy for people to farm millions of plat in relatively small periods of time, such that even when items are sold for exorbitant amounts, there's that 5% of the server or so who will always buy them. So you end up with the majority of the server being unable to buy many types of items, but the price doesn't come down because there are still whales who will always purchase.
