Another reason I don't list prices in auction is to reduce other sellers from undercutting me. I want to be in EC for the minimum amount of time possible so to be there listing something and have someone else run in an slash plat off the same item is annoying.

just wanted to throw out some good advice from a purchasers stand point. I always ask the seller, "what is your rock bottom price?" More often than not, I am surprised how much people are willing to come down. This doesnt seem to work in EQ tunnel though.

I’d like to say it’s strategy but 9/10 times it’s probably just people being lazy. I’m usually two whiskeys in. Type numbers?? Pshh.

Great answers to the question I posted. Seems like I got both sides of the coin and then some. Most of it makes perfect sense and is more or less what I was thinking would be the answer(s) given. Thanks for the replies, I now understand something more then I did before and that I appreciate [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Whoever speaks first in pretty much any negotiation is at a disadvantage. It is a strong move if you can force your adversary to accept his role in the relationship as dependent on you, rather than the other way around.
It usually is easily side-stepped by knowing the market price fluctuation and being sure of the value the item has to you. Buyers on p99 generally have an advantage in most of the items for sale. If only because of the published average prices on the wiki. That sort of confidence didn't exist in classic EQ...you actually had to figure it out (by observing the market for yourself or asking people you trusted). I view the common practice of not listing prices on p99 to be a way for sellers to re-assert a little bit of power in the market...not that it matters in anything except super high end items. | ||

Because putting text in there for pricing takes up space and you can't add as many items to your message. I hate having to put commas in even.
That's my reason anyway. | ||

I don't bother buying something where they are too lazy to put a price. It's annoying.
