I am such an idiot!. ARRAGH!
I just spent all my gold on an item in guild trader only to find it was level 25 not cp 160.. Who the hell even sells gear under 160 let alone for 100K.
I hate you mysterious person from major trade guild I hate you so much.
maintence happened before I had finished raging in game so this is the middle finger to you.

Emothic✭✭✭✭The person to blame is yourself, not the individual who sold the time. That's the consequence of a free market system that we have in the game. And the person who sold the item took advantage of it.Lord Emothic Von Hellsing of ze Hellsing Family.

✭✭inferno staff of the sun, sharpend... yeah 100K is definately too low.
I actually only leave 100K in the inventories of my characters (and the rest in the bank) so i can't make stupid decisons like this so easily, If I wanted to spend the 300K they are normally worth I'd have to go to the bank and come back again.. but it hadn't been listed for long so I just thought maybe it hadn't been seen yet... also it was blue not purple like the others I had seen. Add to that the yellow text going into mantienace panic
I am so stupid grrr.0 -
PocketNova✭✭✭✭Lol, your fault for not checking the item level before laying down the gold. Don't blame the seller, it was through a trader, only one to blame here is yourself.PC NA

✭✭It is my fault but I am still angry at the seller and myself. I can be both.. they are still slimy scammer, I am just an idoit for letting it work.2 -
aLi3nZ✭✭✭✭Well, I was pretty drunk last weekend and just before going to sleep because I was so tired, I spent 750k buying stuff including an entire set I dont see myself using. I also paid more then I should have for some items. They had the same item in a guild store for 30k and 1k. I didnt scroll down and check. I do not regret buying my 350k Sharpened Lightning Necropotence staff though as part of that 750k big spending at least.2 -

They aren't a scammer though. To scam someone you have to break a rule/law in order for it to be considered a scam. They have to be decitful in their sale in order to scam, of which they weren't as there are many ways for you to varify the item. There is no rule in the game that says "you have to sell this item at this price". So thus they weren't scamming. They just took advantage of individuals who don't pay attention to what they are buying.

People list their junk gear at exorbitant prices all the time, hoping some sucker will see it, think it's a good deal because it's a sharpened necropotence staff for ONLY 100k and impulsively buy it before seeing the price (you know, so no one else buys it before you!).

catsgomeow✭✭✭some may think its not a scam and that is technically true however it is immoral and a low and dirty thing to do, shows you the morals someone like that will have irl far as im concerned, yes people will try to sell low level garbage at a high price hoping you will skim to the high priced items thinking thats where the cp level items you want are and they hope you will not notice the level before you buyPAWS (Positively Against Wrip-off Stuff) - Say No to Crown Crates !2

LMAO. A 'scam'.
It's not a scam at all. Someone priced an item for an amount in a guild store and somebody purchased it.
There's no scam there at all.
There's nothing immoral going on here either, IMO.
It is the responsibility of the buyer to READ what they are buying before buying. That is why I always check the level (and trait) before I purchase. If I buy the wrong item it would be on me .. of course I always check what I'm buying so I always buy the right item. lol4 -

i said it wasnt a scam, thats true, but it is as i said immoral but yes it is buyer beware however wouldnt it be nice to be able to play your game without having to put up with *** in game trying to mislead and misguide you through trickery and underhandedness, theres enough of that in the real worldPAWS (Positively Against Wrip-off Stuff) - Say No to Crown Crates !4 -

There is no scam and nobody was "taking advantage". The buyer has all the information they need to make an informed decision right there on the screen. If they don't pay attention that is their fault and nobody else's.catsgomeow wrote: »some may think its not a scam and that is technically true however it is immoral and a low and dirty thing to do, shows you the morals someone like that will have irl far as im concerned, yes people will try to sell low level garbage at a high price hoping you will skim to the high priced items thinking thats where the cp level items you want are and they hope you will not notice the level before you buyPC NA, PC EU

Linaleah✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭✭people leveling characters do occasionally buy gear for them. it can actualy get a little frustrating when leveling a character and upgrades for a particular slot just.. not.. dropping or not in quest rewards and maybe you cannot craft something yet, or cannot find a crafter at the time.. so off you go to guild traders. the game doesn't begin at max level you know. so.. next time, check the level of an item - better yet, when searching for gear, limit it by level
there is NOTHING misleading about listing an item. YOU were the one that assumed it was cp 160Edited by Linaleah on May 30, 2017 8:41AMdirty worthless casual.
