This tends to happen any time a new item hits the market and is part of finding the price point that makes it worth it for buyers and sellers, alike, but I have to agree, people are fools, lol. If an item isn't selling, don't go straight to the bargin bin, try taking 500 credits off and whittle it down.

I would normally agree with you, but that is assuming the price is stable. With every one crafting this stuff, you could do this, which is pretty much what I do, and come back two seconds later and 20 other people undercut by 50-60%. Do you buy all of that? I won't. It's a bad trend on the market, and I ran like Jesse Owens. When stuff drops 100K+ in 30 mins, you better abandon ship, at least temporarily.

Lol, yeah, I pulled out for the day and am crafting/gathering instead. It's a bit too crazy right now and it's quite likely that it will be in wild flux for at least a week. Still, the general principle applies--don't pee in your bed.

This wailing of the self-appointed guardians of correct price always makes my day. Is it too low? Then go and guy it, right? But the problem is that I undercut you by 25%, force you to buy my stuff and post the same item again for the same damn low price. And guess what, I keep making the items faster than you manage to buy them out. So you have more and more listings for you dream-price, and I'm the only one selling. Thank you, Mr. Self-Righteous.

Players are providing you with easy inventory. Last night I was buying mods placed on the GTN at 3K and reselling them for 6K. Prices are bottoming pretty low across the board on crafted items due to an influx of inventory, but there are still opportunities to turn stuff over.

This is true.It's a great opportunity for those with the funds to stock up onstuff that's really underpriced right now.The market hasn't been lower since before the server merges.

The prices were in the 400s and I got a little action on JC. It has been slowly dropping its around 170 mark . It didn't drop fast though. It was over 200 plus about 4 hours ago. Still it slowly crept down. It doesn't really effect me because I don't sell my mats very often. I am still making a good profit. Sure I would like to have the big credits but you have to go with the flow or hold them till later. Just wish I could sell those Invasion Force. Still a nice price though even they have lowered.
