What a stupid fucking post. You literally picked the worst examples possible. You picked two items that have a huge fucking affect of your characters performance. And do tell us what plat collecting dust in your bank does for your character?
Don't buy a best in slot weapon to be competitive in the current raid scene guys

Killing HHK guards at 5.5 plat average drop, one every 3 minutes, it takes 2 hours a day for 10 days to farm 20k.
You missed a zero.

5.5 every 3 minutes is 110pp/hour. 110pp/hour at 2 hours per day over 10 days is 2,200pp.

Either you do 20 hours/day or you do 100 days.

Unreal how shit the economy is.

I spent 4 hours last night in EC all during prime-time hours, 120-135 people in EC the entire time. I sold one item for 350 plat. I'm auctioning around 25 items in total, half of which are BIS and the rest are similarly quality items.

I can easily make 500-600 plat just killing guards per hour. The item they bought would take an average of 2 and a half hours to camp.

So 6.5 hours total invested in that 1 item. If you do the math , I lost 3000 fucking plat by selling an item in EC.

What in the fuck is up with this stupid ass server's economy? I thought it couldn't get any worse .

what I don't understand about live servers is how items default to old school live prices

I see that normalizing after a year, but at a month in some items should be mega rare like gbs and be selling more like 15k

Maybe they're overpriced? Whats some higher end items you were trying to sell, and for how much?

Because people know you don't need close to BiS items to play in Classic. You don't even need second or third BiS.

Classic is a good time to just hunt small item drops to sell to the vendor. Collect plat.

The items people want and are selling well are things like GEBs - 9k all day every day.

Just a thought, but since expansions are "theoretically" going to be coming out much faster, why would someone waste money on items that are going to be replaced easily in just a few months.
A good point.

Another idea I had: now, more than perhaps ever before, there are tons of players on Green99 who know the game inside and out. They know what classes they want to play, where to hunt, what items to use, etc...and they have big plans of farming certain items to sell in EC.

So there we all are...farming the same items...and trying to sell them to each other. Perhaps the ratio of farmer/sellers to buyers is too high.

Who can farm 3k that can't farm a [name of 3k item here]?
Who can farm 20k that can't farm a [name of 20k item here]?
