monopoly :D


wrong, a monopoly would be when there's only 1 person offering turns and setting the prices.... since there's a few doing it it would be an oligopoly ;)

pwned ya both :P

Its like stuff in RL they are not sold close to their production price either as people wanna make a nice profit from it......
If im gonna buy AT i wanna make a good profit from it else im not even gonna bother .....
The ingame market is much lower then AT are getting sold for thats the thing what makes the price and atm its far from 25bill/k


Well maybe I should make a post for Forum to adjust the ingame market to better reflect the black market.

And if you cant make a good profit from 1k attack turns at 25 or 26billion

you really need to talk to me for some gaming advice because thats pretty bad mate

hell even at 30billion i could make hella proft with 1k attack turns
All that is necessary for the triumph of evil,

We suggested that at the last admin chat and Jason laughed.

He laughed because it is US that control the ingame market.

I dont think i need advice you can trust me on that.....

I can still make a profit on 25bill and also on 30bill and eventually also on 60 bill thats not my point but it takes time for raid farms to change to adapt new prices as people will raid at higher standards eventually....

The profit im making now is about double every at i buy but im ding alot of work for it too my point is not making a profit its making the biggest profit i can get .....

Why you all complaining? you're getting more naq fro youre money anyone i bought off, Not my problem is it Nigatsu_Aka, Just because you dont makemore naq than i do tobeat my prices then its your problem,You know im thinking of buying more naq just to <nani?> you off and buy uu at 1200m/k really its not worth it, but if it pisses you off, its hella worth it =)

Anyways, I stopped buying uu for now, I'll let market drop then ill come back later - but remember, IM BACK FOR GOOOOOOOD and when im LG i'll give you my id ok d/w wont take long like 2 weeks if i get to top 100 with this Wuahahahahah ~ peace

I'm playing again Nigatsu_Aka just because you de-ascended my old acct and then delete my ascended account so you cant de-ascend mine again if possible or vacation mode it



hahaha and like LMAO and to finish it rofl

Like do you think that you will achieve something by increasing the prices that only the most biggest will e able to buy help you?????
If someone says that heis selling uu for 650 mio per k and i say i will buy only for 600 i wont give him more.
I have decreased price this way lots of times.

Ohh and you will give nigatsu your ID when you will be LG and in the top 100??????where is the point in this,LG can be deascended and taking down a top 100 guy is common these days.Not even an LG acount or top 100 one will save you,3 or 4 people nad you can make a new acount.

i pity you in fact,i am a bit hungry,howabout giving me your ID,do you still have a def though? :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

i have a problem with people just looking for a couple k and making a big thread for it so everyone thinks thats the regular price....
If you need a couple k fast theres an easier way then to trow with naq....

Maybe im gonna do this another way i could make the prices so high that almost nobody could afford AT anymore how would you like that?

a monopoly can be a group which force or set a price to either stay/rise or fall, its just another name for trying to control :D

Honours and Awards

If one big player becomes a seller and sells for less, they can force the prices to drop...

It'll be even better if a few do so, or even an entire alliance.

So yes, the buyers are the ones pushing the prices up, but I believe that one seller can make more of a difference than one buyer. One buyer simply won't get his ATs if he decides a price is to high, whereas, if a seller lowers his prices, he'll attract more buyers, and the other sellers will lose buyers and subsequently lower their prices. :)

im not going to mass you for doing it, which is what you are saying you would do to others for doing the same thing

i might wake up one morning and go DAMN, attack turns cost alot more now, then id suck it up and buy me some turns

I'm in favour of multiple prices for UU, for AT it's different.
I'm in favour of seeing sellers/buyers who want 600mil/k and ones 850mil/k (and many other prices between). I in no way want to see ONLY cheap or expensive traders.
phantomx

That's your choice, You wanna be smartass thinking you will get me to lower my prices of buying UU then you try it, either way I will always buy higher than what anyone is selling/buying for and threatening to mass them would e funny i'll just make them do private trades so :)

Im not buying for some time anyways got to wait like 1-2 days for paypal to transfer from debit to account then ill concider it again

If i had the naq id buy 900b for 1m its no loss
