it has a high chance of not working due to the Nash Game theory. It's all economics. (due to the large number of traders, i'll be talking about groups doing it instead of a single business) If all the traders come together and try to form a monopoly out of a purely competitive market, there is a high incentive to cheat. Say the guild set price is 800 mil per 1k. so if all the trader's stick to that everyone would get the 800 mil/k. if one group decides to set cheat and set their price at say 650-700 mil/k, they would get more business than the rest of the group. yet if both groups cheat, they'll have lower prices say 600 mil/k, and yet they might both get more business due to the lower prices. but then again this generally applies to a duapoly(two firms) instead of a purely competitive market(many many firms) such as this. that and i guess if you massed people who cheated that might give them more incentive to not cheat. jus t a thought.

Would honestly like to know how this has a point and how it will work.

First I belive it is to keep prices the same for everyone...If you have 50 buyers in here buying at 600mil per k. SO hardly anyone will be b ale to buy their required amount. Soooo soon you will try to outbid each other. Woudnt it just be easyer to let them flow naturaly. Soon it will get out of hand and you will have a pecking order to who can buy and how much. Pretty pointless. And... If you have the whole market on the guild but one person then that one person goes 610per k and he wins. Sure its a good idea and would be great but will it work?

Just some thaughts. Revel in them :D
