there WAY to low in my area, people buy it for 8 bread a piece and your selling it at 5, that means if i want mine to sell fast, i need to put it at 4 or 5 and thats half as productive as what i use to do so RAISE YOUR PRICES
i even bought yours so mine was at the top:p only works when your not on tho

LOL !!!

Your goods are sitting there unsold cuz your prices are too high. It has nothing to do with me.

Suffer with your poor decision, my friend.

So now you have to sell at 8 and let the consumer choose.

That's the way the market works. When I first started in Theoris at 39N there were few players and almost no one using the market. My prices were 1 less than the nubian prices. Once the market developed i couldn't see at those prices anymore so i had to be competitive. Sometimes I would undercut other listings but usually I would just stay at the lowest price. The better stratgey is to price your items not only based on supply and demand but give quantity discounts. Take jewelry, say it is listed in lots of 1000 for 8, perhaps try listing 50 at 9 or even 10. You may find that the lower quantity sells just fine at the higher price because the new players can come up with 450 bread to buy the 50 rather than the 8000 bread to buy 1000.

Find your customer, if your product is not selling it is either too expensive or in too large of a lot for your customers. (Not everyone can afford to shop at Costco even though the products are generally less expensive than other stores).

Nonsense. I was here looong before you opened your account.

You have more than a bit of difficulty with the truth, Chris.
