Just wondering...with so many items that the FC price checks above max cash now, has the FC reconsidered using a formula/calculation to provide single price pcs for these items in order to simplify the whole process?

Scope I has been doing it on his own for some time now with phats and black santa and it seems to be well received by the rares community.

It seems incongruent to me that the FC claims to be a pcing FC and not a flipping FC yet has ranges for almost half of its items now. Furthermore, the precision (consistency) that is provided by using a formula makes it easier to defend the pc over the current method where it is decided by a handful of individuals who may have a bias. By using a formula you get the same result every time and it is not dependent on who participates in the range session and there isn't much for people to bicker about - it is what it is.

Edit: Maybe a thread/poll for members of the community to weigh in on it?

Why not both?

Why not both?

Because the current method yields results that are inherently more outdated and less objective while the process is more complicated and time consuming. But maybe the FC could trial doing both by formally recognizing the lists "Scope I" publishes as being sanctioned by the FC and include them along with their lists?

Well every other time things have been passed along to someone else, it involved all aspects, not just part of it.

Support!

If we are going to continue providing PCs on these items, may as well go all out and do it in the least subjective way possible. I appreciate Scope's work (using the formula created by Charm), and would be fully willing to substitute this for the ranges. Support!

There's no wrong doing of R Quark in that screenshot. If you take a look at the gif he posted on the same thread, the value of the bween was inconsistent with that screenshot. It showed a price that appeared to be X14,000,000 (X being either a 5 or 6, really tough to tell) which completely contradicts the original screenshot. He also hid some of his ge slots conveniently to hide the fact that there was an unclaimed amount of money from selling a different bween, so it would not appear in his history.

Tl;dr The screenshot of his history is photoshopped, but the chat message is from a legitimate sale that was unclaimed to make it not appear in the ge history.

I wasn't aware of the stream, as I cba to follow a reddit thread with a bunch of clueless people on it.

Anyway, go sell an item not instant while you're offline, then log back into the game after it sells. You'll get the blue text saying your item has sold. Does that mean it sold at that exact instant? No, not at all whatsoever. That's why the timestamps are invalid.

@Gob Nob - I actually overpaid for this blue h'ween less than a week ago it was purchased for 575m after sitting in the GE for hours - I gave it to my boyfriend (8s ) we decided to sell it and actually lost 25m on it. It was put in the GE yesterday and sold yesterday.

It's super sketch that conflict would be called and he instantly gets kicked for stating an accurate selling price especially since blue hweens have been buying and selling between 535m and 575m
