Read your post prometheum about a rare store, it's kinda fair. Don't like the idea of new rares to enter tho, but to buy and sell rares that already exist to a NPC for fixed prices is fair.

This is so smart, why haven't they done it already?


If you could buy and sell rares for a fixed price to an NPC, that would wipe out the demand by a lot. Since a majority of the demand and liquidity that comes into rare market is from investors and flippers looking to profit. The superior man thinks of virtue; the small man thinks of comfort.

Unless rares were still tradeable and players bought out the stock in the store and rares inflated to over the store value... All this would guarantee is a minimum value for rare items... Unless we also got rid of trading them at all which would be terrible and lame.

So we are September! Which means:

• Lower volume of trading items, less active players selling/buying
• Usually there is a crash around this time
• The crash is most of the time not suddenly, but happens with ups and downs on the street

Things I noticed about this rise instead of other rises in history (2010, 2017 ,.. ect):

• Demand and buyout for Red Santa hat was really strong this year, never seen before
• As long as Santa stays above max, a huge crash will not happen yet
• As soon as Santa hits the GE again, it’s game over for the rise and a big crash will very likely happen
• Santa will only get back to GE if demands starts lowering, as soon as people don’t see much profit anymore into holding Santa, they might sell and create higher supply
• This rise took around 1,5 months longer than before, I do also notice rises are everytime longer then before!
• This time, they did rise much higher than before! Normally we see lower rares triple in price (not on GE price index, but on streets). This time it rose between x4 to x5 times, way higher than x3 as before.
• I have never seen such influence of merchants before, the “pump” is getting really stronger and stronger. Dumping in panic much less.

What about Partyhats!

• They will (like most of the times) have one last great run to a highest point.
• In 2017 they for example peaked in October, probably this time around November?
• This usually happens when merchers leave the lower rares and go back to the uppers
• I saw (for the times I did check the forums ) some people cashing out on lowers and buying into their first phat, which means more people into the hats market. Curious how this will affect on the longer run for 2021.

You've always been intelligent.

The action or process of causing so much damage to something that it no longer exists or cannot be repaired.
