So yes I say it needs to be shut down so people don't go by it's prices but go by what they think it's worth and for those selling Gold event mods at low prices to chill and let everyone get a chance to make platinum. Cause I seen some do that and have over 6,000 platinum and still selling for more. so this whole thing is because you're not making any plat? ok glad we cleared this up also, since you said "people should chose what they think is worth"...what do you think they're not doing that? I mean if someone is selling stuff for 5p and you're selling it for 10p....which one do YOU think is worth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ability to compare prices enables buyers to get the best deal, not the one on offer at the moment they have time to sift through trade chat. It should be a matter of supply and demand, not a matter of timing. Warframe.market will let you compare prices without having to deal with the ridiculous price fluctuations and trade sharks in chat. If you can't sell your lawnmower mod for 500pl, you've set the price too high compared to other offers on the market or the expectations of potential buyers. If you are too greedy to sell at going rates, enjoy holding on to your items until the market gets saturated or game changes makes it obsolete. I actually urge people to go to Warframe.market and check the price range before buying or selling via chat. Until DE makes a better trade system, that site will give you a better idea of the prices than the latest 10 minutes of trade chat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sold 3 Saryn Prime sets for 170 the other day... from the WF.market (of which I am a Patreon Supporter)... Their going price is about 150p.. You would make more plat from embracing the site than whinging that you have to sell low based on the hypothetical that you could otherwise sell high.. it's nonsense.

So I smell bias on your part. People pay what they want. I think that's great because it keeps the F2P game alive. People can still play for free or pay for it. The only other examples I've seen where the auction house has worked with in-game currency is. http://pwi-wiki.perfectworld.com/index.php/Auction_House and https://www.gw2tp.com/ Perfect World Malaysia did ingame materials to ingame currency as a service. The game closed by 2010. But re-opened under another new company. Perfect World International (http://www.arcgames.com/en/games/pwi) interestingly (and ironically) enough should still be going. But that did the RNG box model those boxes could be sold for in-game currency or the really good gear in-game, which could be gotten from those boxes was also sold for ingame currency. Guild Wars 2 has been the only one differing exceptional on auction house wise. Where it's been really successful. Guild Wars 2 also hired an economist. But those are the only two examples I know that did paid for currency for set-ingame-currency-rate.http://www.warcry.com/news/view/123640-The-Guild-Wars-2-Economy-Is-Terrible-Says-Economisthttps://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/john-smith-on-the-guild-wars-2-virtual-economy/ The only other game I've heard of was Eve Online, where the ISK became valued versus real world curency; Because there was so much time attached to it. What if you did platinum for credits? That won't really happen. If DE has a website where they set the prices if you used real world currency to the the back-end; It will be that the platinum sold through the main website also needs to be value equated with real world currency. Then the platinum needs to be be valued by the the region it is sold in. In the world pegged against something like xe.com. So we've got free market thus people pay what they want, They can use Nexus or Warframe.market as a guide. But at the end of the day. It's if people accept the trade or not.

That's why there's a pricetag on wares in a store. That's why when people sell their used stuff, they tell how much they want from it. They don't just say to the buyer "what do you think it's worth?" Hell, even auctions has a starting price. I've actually filtered out the PMO tag from trade chat, because I don't consider anyone who uses it serious. And I'm sure I'm not the only one. Bottomline: get rid of the PMO in your WTS message, offer a reasonable price directly in the message, and I assure you, you will start to get replies from potential buyers.

Sometimes I have a go at these, some one says 'PMO' for a riven, so I toss out 150p, because that's what I think it's worth... and if I don't get a block right up, they just don't bother answering, because I guess they want 400p or something... It's such stupid way to sell stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the seller asks for an offer, they either don't know the value of their own inventory and I have to do price checks for a fair price (screw that, I'm not doing your research for you, especially for free) or they know the value and are hoping to get someone who doesn't and over bids.

Regrettably, this is not how markets work. Think of any exchange like NASDAQ, for example. Those trading have access to historic data about prices in order to deduce patterns and trends and build models to predict likely future values based on scenarios. People would not trade if they were doing so 'blind' without data to support decisions. All that warframe.market does is to provide those data sets and they reflect supply and demand. Items in Warframe do not have fixed prices throughout their lifecycle. When you choose to sell or buy is important, not just what you're buying or selling. New items will attract a premium initially on launch as supply will be limited and demand high due to the novelty of the new item; prices will dip as the supply increases and demand falls. Items just about to enter the vault will have a premium just before vaulting because they are just about to disappear and so demand increases. Betting on which items may be vaulted and deliberately collecting and sitting on examples of those items is one option that may be followed.

novalery Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 and here i've been making plats by using warframe.market.. no, you wont find me there, i'm not a member. i just use their site as a frame of reference to place price in my wares. because how would one simply "know the price"... i'm not an expert on economy but i thought its normal for a market to run on supply and demand kind of relationship.. if there are more player selling an item then the number of player who want to buy them, then obviously the price will fall because at that point the item will start to lost its value.. so sellers will try to get rid of their wares as fast as possible by reducing their price, and vice versa. or you can choose to hold your item for a period of time till it started to become valuable again.

CupcakesMoo Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 There does seem to be a need to "find out yourself" what something costs and the warframe.market price is what I go by. Sometimes I change the price depending on my needs but if people don't like those prices I can keep trying until I find someone who does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emolition Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Nice thing with a market is that it easy to sell stuf for 50% lower then othere ppl as it will sell faster then over pricing them =P If warframe had a auction house I would post all my stuff on there for 50-75% lower then the lowest price to sell them fast. That why ppl don't want auction house for it would drive down the prices 😃 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well if its not set up by DE then there probably isn't much they can do about it. As far as I can tell trade in WF is much like a car boot sale. People are allowed to set their own prices and you can either choose to pay them or not. It makes it clear right there on the homepage that it is a fan site and not affiliated with DE, so you know right away that you're NOT on an official site. That should serve as a warning to anyone with a couple of brain cells. If you don't like the prices there, buy your gear from the in-game market...simples!
