Items are not gold bars

[enjchanter]

If you have an item you can't sell, don't try to include it in a trade for the current value of that item

Don't pawn off illiquid stuff on people and make then do the work selling it.

If it was worth what you're trading it in for you would have been able to sell it and get the plat to begin with

Greed.

Can I get a discount on your fungi tunic if I add this nifty Silver Swiftblade? It's an awesome 2h starter for rangers. You like rangers don't you OP?

Yeah no, I do this all the time with great success.

If you don't like the deal, just say no.

No need to be a little bitch about it.

[enjchanter]

well i mean ofcourse i say no

but if you offer me plat + some item i dont want / you cant sell, hows it unfair to just value it at the lowest of its range so doing the work of moving the item is worth the trouble?

if you want my fungi its lame to be like will you take 28k + hand of the reaper
because theres no way youre getting 12k for that item

It's curious that a trade only economy never developed on P99

Some items are too good for useless money.

Pp is only good for milk, muffins, bandages, vendor spells, gems and tink bags.

Would rather have the items in bank ready to roll a twink or to hand out to a needful pal than a pile of useless peepe.

Agreed. I've had a number of trades where I ask if they would take plat + items, and they happened to need those items for another character. Easy trade.

People don't always read evey /auction message, or just miss them sometimes.

But I do agree with Enjchanter about prices. Typically if I do plat + items, I'll throw in more plat to undervalue the items, so people can get extra plat in total if they sell the items for market price. Sweetens the deal for people who don't need the items.
