When I see rediculous undercutting, I just buy all the low items up and resell them at a sane price. People have to understand crafting in this game costs both time and credits, and crafters won't bother making stuff if the return is not worth the effort.

Sure, that's going to happen

Everyone that crafts. including people that undercut, will rage and quit crafting, and poor poor people without 2 or 3 alts will quit game because they'll be unable to augment their gear or get stims, since all crafters will stop crafting, forever.

It's no one's responsibility to ensure a viable market. It's a game. It's there for fun. If you want to "fix" things by buying and re-listing at what you think are so-called sane prices, have at it. I heartily approve ('cause I do the same thing).

You can continue to whine.... IDGAF.

Sounds like someone's gonna cry. I ALWAYS undercut the prices because people like yourself always jack up prices unfairly where the common player can't get at it. And, really? You had to complain about PRICES in a forum????

The golden rule of market economy is that only things will sell for what people are willing to pay. If I craft items, post them, and they sell within minutes or hours, the listed price is not too high. If I get what I listed back in the mail unsold, I relist at a lower price that the consumer will buy.

Not sure we have an argument here.

As more and more people hit that 450 crafting skill, there's going to be more supply on crafted goods period, you want to stay competitive with more and more people crafting your snowflake shinies, drop your absurd prices.

Not a single player in the entire game has any right to "set the prices." That's an ego trip, plain and simple.

Personally, I don't care what the price is, whether it's undercutted or not, as long as it sells.
