It is clear that 1000 != 100 and neither is "000" = "100" <br /><br />There is no means to scam someone on the AH. I can't post a bullet for 2g and then charge 10g in hidden fees or ship them a bullet that does not shoot. <br /><br />On the buyer's part there is only lack of knowledge which we call ignorance. On the buyer's part there is lack of effort to search the best deal, which could be achieved with a 45 second download.<br /><br />I do not feel cheated, in any real sense, from the seller when I buy an apple at the corner store for 99cents when I could have gone down the road to buy 5 for 2 dollars. I feel lazy. <br /><br />To bring in the moral topic, do I feel pity for these fools? Yes. Do I feel compassion? Well, if you mean "sympathetic consciousness of others' distress together with a desire to alleviate it" then, yes. <br /><br />While I trod on educating those who want to be educated, I will still provide an easy ammo fix for those who do not. They are not in distress and have no want for my alleviations.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461700565722278823.post-36652439033005334852009-12-07T19:43:25.072+01:002009-12-07T19:43:25.072+01:00As someone selling mammoth cutters the whole of th...As someone selling mammoth cutters the whole of the last expansion (and I've made a over 100k from it too, mind you not so much since ammo changes and removal of bullet machines), I hope anyone selling stacks of 100s for about the same price of 1000s gets reported and banned.

In reality though, all business and trade is an exercise in making off with the better end of it. Selling a full stack of ammo at 14 gold (today's price on my server) is still more than 2x the cost of mats + time, selling 100 for the same price while more of a profit is still the same sort of business. <br /><br />In society we agree that those with goods may profit from those without for the sake of time and the buyer's convenience. The buyer of 100 sized ammo stacks is paying a premium for the convenience of being ignorant and choosing the ammo that is listed as "cheapest" in his AH UI. <br /><br />45 seconds downloading Auctioneer would cure him/her of such burdens.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461700565722278823.post-86333582097441536992009-12-06T21:14:39.398+01:002009-12-06T21:14:39.398+01:00BAHAHAHHA love the ammo moron.
