(PSN)youngn0121 Posted July 9, 2014 Author Share Posted July 9, 2014 Because they add up over time. The same time could be spent adding up physical aesthetics, money from work, or there could be a trade floor at 20p. Anything less isn't worth it And this is from a person who hasn't paid plat for any weapons or otherwise in the game.

I pay for plat to support the developers Yes you could sell something for that much and although it is a reasonable price if I sell it for much cheaper I am going to steal your potential customer. Some people don't want to make the most money or to make the best deals they just want to guarantee the sale thus they sell for cheap. Lol an hour spent fishing for years for 50 plat? This can not be real tea An hour of game play for 50 plat is rather good. Edited July 9, 2014 by BrotherIcarus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I pay for plat to support the developers then why complain if you buy play anyways -.- it's nice for people who don 't buy plat. It's nice you support the devs! But some people are either young or don't have the extra money to spend on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bladeguardian Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 SlotsI might buy cosmetics when i buy plat, but slots is the reason for low P trades Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jennibear Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Lol an hour spent fishing for 50 plat? This can not be real teawhat do you even farm hours for that costs 5 plat? And why would you even farm it if it's that cheap? Go for the big stuff if you're going to farm. =\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vunie Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 why not if i have a mod i dont really need and i have nothing else to do just sell it for 5p unless you have like 5 trades a day in that case it would be a waste Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egg_Chen Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 I get 14 trades a day, and I never use them all. 5p trades added up, got me the Loki helm, it is a token system in all but name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

immolator1001 Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 (edited) Because I have 16 trades a day. And if I'm in trade chat trying to sell something and see someone who is buying something else I happen to have I might as well trade for it. Itt: the reason why DE has been sold to PWEI'm not rich by any means but I. Recognized the value of work and Lol at 5p trades ITT: Op apparently doesn't know what they are talking about. Seriously these trades usually take under a minute... Edited July 9, 2014 by immolator1001 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vaugahn Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 You aren't going to steal my customer because a 5p trade isn't worth my time or anyone else's... Trade needs a price floor, period It's much easier to sell something for 5p than it is to sell it for 20p Plus, there's a lot of stuff that's only worth 5p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hexagoros Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Seems like a waste of a trade to me but I'm not cheap, I buy platinum for formas, catalyts and cosmetics Not worth the time imo Two Reasons. 1) The Trade Chat tab is HORRIBLE and difficult to use, it is a wave of spam. So when I see someone who is interested, I would much rather sell low than risk losing the trade and be forced to return to the Spam-Chat. 2) This ties into reason one, because I would rather sell a few 5 plat mods in a day, then spend a week trying to find one buyer at the 15-20 plat price. If there was an Auction House, or some other kind of 'rational' trading system, then yes, I would be much more inclined to try and sell at 'reasonable' prices. It really is just that simple.

vaugahn Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 If someone doesn't want to go waste hours hoping rng blesses them with what they're looking for then they'll pay for it. What about stuff like akbronco prime blueprints and reaper handles? If someone tried to charge me 20p for either of those I'd laugh at them, whether I wanted them or not. Some stuff just isn't that valuable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)Goldengeartwo Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 5p is generally the minimum platinum pay. Anything below that is not even worth the trade to me. 5p trades add up over time, I made 300 plat just doing 5p trades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything below that is not even worth the trade to me. 5p trades add up over time, I made 300 plat just doing 5p trades. Basically. But really, we all know that prices would shoot up -- and rightly so -- if there was some sort of 'trading process' beyond the horror of the trade chat, which is just spam and randomness.

CaptainJohnson Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 OP confirmed for elitist who doesn't understand trading, more at 11. At least there's a small argument that trades on the PS4 take more time than on the PC, but price floors won't solve anything. How would price floors benefit anyone, OP? Does it benefit the people who buy and sell at higher prices? (If you wanted to know, it won't). Does it benefit the players who try to buy and sell mods cheaply? Well, that's also a big ol' nope. So the only reason you want a price floor is because you, personally, do not see the use in it. That doesn't make sense to anyone and it's incredibly selfish- if it's not selfish, then it's elitist. Pick between the two, I don't care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)youngn0121 Posted July 9, 2014 Author Share Posted July 9, 2014 (edited) Well let's welcome our new Chinese overlords for a reason... Cheap, worthless trades are reason why warframe isn't as profitable as it should be and had to be sold.
