Prices on the new server(s) do seem out of whack, higher in many cases higher than not only on most original servers but also usually higher than the same items were on Blue during the 2009/early 2010 period. Rate of items entering the game also seems low. I suspect the problems could be linked; a higher-than-usual proportion of players might be leveling off cash/plat camps rather than item camps, leading to a somewhat inflated but item-poor economy relative to what might be more usual on a two to three month old setting. This might be Blue's influence being felt since leveling off cash camps was (and is) heavily preferred since the majority of low-level and old-world items were typically obsolescent and unwanted on that server.

I haven't had many issues buying or selling on EC. Granted, it's more during the primetime hours that I've been there, but I've usually been in and out pretty quickly.

At any rate, if you're looking for the type of EC tunnel scene that Blue has (i.e. constantly swamped with people and items and pp flying everywhere every 2 minutes), that takes awhile to get together on a fresh server. Not really a surprise that we're not at that level yet on a fresh server.

More items will hit the market when sol ro temple is implemented.

It’s classic, gear pretty much doesn’t mean anything anyway.

Lots of people do not understand supply and demand and do get butt hurt when someone try’s so charge whatever it is they want for an item. It’s economics, eqnomics even.

I'm more interested in playing than sitting in the tunnel selling items to people.

Off-peak Jewelcrafter here. I haven't been in the tunnel for a while because I'm racing to 46 before Fear comes out.

I can imagine others doing the same.

The server is new fellas. It will be awhile before it gets to some semblance of the ec tunnel you know from Blue. Blue started this way as well.

Dear OP,

Have you tried getting good?

Sincerely,
Someone who doesn't have trouble selling items in a 20 year old game
