Bobo's pro player tip of the day: Trading

Trade like a pro player:

Step 1: Post your item for 1 ex.
Step 2: Ignore all the whispers you get for the item.
Step 3: Repost said item for double.
Step 4: If you get more whispers go back to step 2.
Step 5: If whispers slow down, post one last time with increased pricing.
Step 6: If by this time the whispers have stopped completely for the item, take one step back in your pricing and repost said item.
Step 7: Sell item and laugh...

I got some guy who whisper me telling me he is going to report me for price gauging because he didn't get to buy the item before someone else did for the price i finally set it to.

I think he got butthurt.

Is this satire? Because that is the wrong way around.

You should always list high and go down in price when you do not receive any whispers. Well checking the price first would be best, but the lazy way is listing high first and lowering the price over time.

Edit:
Your way is getting you blocked by players.

If I accidentally post something too low I take the highest offer when the flood comes in, but if it’s all for the base price I just accept one randomly. It’s my fault for not knowing the proper price and a few divs is less valuable than being an honorable trader.

Yes, it is satire. He was joking. He forgot to add '/s' at the end.

Sellers want to maximise the price, buyers search for lowest price and the only issue here is suboptimal implementation of the process.
