it used to regulate itself......from 20-22 bill to 25bill/k isnt normal there are people atm who try to increase prices for their own benefit....

Well, people are always going to try and profit, and if the CoP CIA war doesn't end soon watch it rise even further..

Its the people who pay such ridicilious prices, that is causing the problem.. Personally I think it is foolish..

I even have a hard time paying for something that a few months ago was half the price of the current standard..

And saying the market will regulate itself is wrong.. It is upto the larger players to regulate the market, as they are the ones who will keep it going..

If everyone of the buyers said, right I am not paying more then 300 Million per k of UU the prices will plummet.. Its upto the community of buyers to lower the price not the sellers.. No one is going to lower their prices when there are people who will pay stupid prices for it.. :roll:

Or 5 billion per K of AT..

Of course this has been said before and noone ever listens..

Oh and with everyone buying and noone really selling anymore, this wouldn't be that hard to do..

buyers are the problem, not sellers...sure u need AT but sellers will lower the prices if noone's gonna buy at that rate..all buyers should stop buying that costly and open topics like Buying ATs, 15 bil for 1k and similiar...

I am not trying to be funny or anything, but the box was opened with this :wink:

Extortion - (demand goods for not massing) - right or wrong?

it can be said, depending on your perspective on the issue

by the way i agree the prices are crazy :roll:

I wouldn't class this as extortion though...

It's always been like this, when ever there's a war and people know everyone needs AT, they will raise the prices. So what's so bad about boycotting that or even starting a little revolt? ;)

It's a bit like in the real world... most wars are started over economics and resources ;)

I know what your trying to say but im not looking to mass every player i see with high prices..............im buying 200k AT every week every price increase cuts my profit enormous.....not to mention its totally unnecesarry to have such high prices.......

There people who are buying MT and sell the AT for just naq ........thats the only thing there doing wich gives me the idea the prices are high enough already ..........

I dont think this is extortion there hurting me with things wich are not necesarry at all...........im just defending my profits :-D
