how do you resellers stand the undercutting? how do you do this without losing your mind over how fucking stupid other sellers are?

[(Anonymous)]

I'm not a reseller but I've started to make a point of buying the second/third lowest price instead of the lowest one, and I refuse to buy from anyone that has a price end in "99"

idk it makes me feel better and the price jump usually isn't too high

[(Anonymous)]

i don't care if it's by like 1 to 100 treasure depending on the item, but fucking 500 to 2k? fucking fuck

[(Anonymous)]

nah I still do it if the jump is by a couple of thousand t

treasure isn't so hard to make on this site that I can't squander a bit of it for a personal quirk

[(Anonymous)]

oh good I tend to price my stuff as second or third lowest (though I have done the ending-in-99 thing before in a fit of desperation), I might adopt this policy myself if I've got the cash to burn.

or keep buying something out if it's seriously undercut and then relisting for higher.

[(Anonymous)]

dude, you should buy from that end in 99, i fucking love people that undercut me by 1t like that, they're at least being SOMEwhat considerate about their undercutting

[(Anonymous)]

I resigned myself to dealing with them. I can't be F5ing every minute to relist so I just set what I think is a reasonable price and wait.

[(Anonymous)]

I don't. I cry myself to sleep every night.
(okay no but I still perpetually feel like punching these assholes in the face. just how fucking stupid can you get holy shit)

I ignore them. My stuff usually sells anyway, it just takes a little longer.

Personally, I don't care. My things will sell eventually, they always do. My main income source is the Coliseum, and I'm not saving up hardcore for anything at the moment... so whatever. I list things and hope they sell. And if they don't, I relist 'em until they do. (Or until I suddenly go, "WAIT THAT GENE IS PERFECT FOR [dragon name]!" and use the gene myself. Tho often deciding on that is a great way to make sure the gene sells before I have a chance to pull the auction...)
