munchkinmage Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 Guys, be careful.. Until it's proven, don't rush to sell all your rares just because of stuff like what Mark's saying. It doesn't look that serious here in W2. I'll add prices I'm seeing on all rares. @^ It doesn't look like there's more rares being sold then usual though. The prices are just dropping because everyone's freaking out about the rumor of a dupe. Pretty much all the phat merchants here are saying it's fake.

ValaraZ Posted February 18, 2007 Author Share Posted February 18, 2007 I'm at santa market now, the price seems to [bleep]e down every 5 mins or so. Whoever appeals to the law against his fellow man is either a fool or a coward. Whoever cannot take care of himself without that law is both.

munchkinmage Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 This is totally fake. Yes, prices have dropped, but that's just because the rumor is spreading. If they were actually being duped, there'd be much more chaos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudeonthenet Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 You guys know that all prices go up every friday and saturday then down again sunday afternoon. This is because many reasons. Mainly because more people play on the weekend, higher demand means higher prices. How convinient that the dupe rumor came out on sunday :XD: . I'm always buying snapdragon seeds, name your price.

Adam007 Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 I can see why some type of rumor would cause this kind of thing. Even if they sharply fell, they'll rise up again once people realize it was a fake. It's just my stipulation, but I think something like this is exactly what rares need. They need some type of catalyst, some turbulence. This kind of rapid trading of rares and reshuffling of them is exactly what they need to get passed their 8 months of being stagnant. They might have fallen now, but they really needed something to jolt them either up or down. Yes, panic can cause a rapid drop in price But if this drop is artificial, it will easily rise back up to normal prices, and possibly even further since the whole market was jolted. It might take a few weeks to recover but after that we might even see some normal growth again. To owners: hold your rares. There is no dupe. To potential buyers: Buy some rares while there's panic and they're cheap. -edit: Duke's not on msn - this is the best economic advice I can give. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
munchkinmage Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 Well I'm gonna stop logging prices as there's no doubt in my mind that this is fake... Hold onto your hats folks, they'll be bouncing back! :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jessy87 Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 i saw vals thread and was like, i figured some weird small item like seers ring [bleep]ed to like 1m or more, or barrows armor prices halved... never did i expect to see val talkin about his rares. but cmon, theirs no dupe, even if their is... it cant hurt the market that bad lol prices would return to the pre-weeks of the dupe within years.

Adam007 Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 I just checked world 2. Things seem fine. Drops, if any, are just because people like to panic and sell rares, creating a quick supply boost. Since this supply vs demand balance is off, you see a quick drop. Once people realize things are fine, this imbalance will go back to normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ValaraZ Posted February 18, 2007 Author Share Posted February 18, 2007 I heard now what had happned: everything is thanks to a scammer. Some guy who was duel arena bug abuser had sold a load of blue phats to some ppl at 360m (i think it was that). With that happened it killed the market for blue hats and hence they went down. For some reason that caused the phats to go down in general and that website someone was talking about "stirred the soup" even more and hence created the rumor of duping. The market will most likely get back to normal in a few days. Whoever appeals to the law against his fellow man is either a fool or a coward.

munchkinmage Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 Interesting.. I wonder if that'll lower the price of blues overall? :-k We'll see what happens when it all evens back out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValaraZ Posted February 18, 2007 Author Share Posted February 18, 2007 I think it will, i bet the merchants will try to jack up blue phats once again but it will take time to do it. I saw some merchant buy, well tried to, blue for 350 but i don't think he had any luck, most people just jammed their hats to their vaults.

meb Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 Blue hats are higher than red hats and from what I can derive from your text you got an offer of blue +5m for a red. Yea, i forgot to add that it was two reds, not one. Details... : I'm buying a santa and it will rot away in my bank. Retired 2146 overall - 136 combat - 6 skillcapes Plus I think the whole teenage girl thing will end soon (hopefully), because my girlfriend is absolutely in love with him(she is 18), and im beginning to feel threatened by his [Justin Bieber] dashing looks.

ddaanniiellh Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 That was technically how the stock market crashed in 1939 (?), before the Great Depression, there was a speculation that the prices of stocks were going to drop massively, so people started to sell off all their stocks and therefore causing the prices to drop rapidly. Rumors have lots of power... ~Ddaanniiellh : 1437 : 173Lowest Combat to 1,000 Total in F2P (23 Combat)Check me out on YouTube! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
