People that don't want to look hard enough will go to housing.
God, though. The market is just...x.e.
In-game gold can't keep up with the NX items at the rate we're going, but a lot of people still wont' lower their prices, so a lot of people wont' be able to afford them. I can't even sell anything without taking forever and getting a LOT of crappy item offers first.

150K dyes made me cringe. 200K made me laugh. It's nice to see them going down again, regardless of what's at work. It makes my raft grinding more worth while when I can get a little more for my work. Hopefully I'll make a really nice chunk of gold during my month of winter break.
I'm also not saying there aren't rich people around. I mean that a good chunk of the population (enough that people notice) have nice things, but don't have gold anymore, and instead of buying, they try to trade stuff they don't want for stuff they do want. The rich are probably so rich they already have what others are trying to sell, or they just don't give two farts about whatever the item is.
This is kinda true
i miss the days where id open shop, go sleep, and shop would be empty by the time i wake up
now is only my inbox filled with PMs and adding requests >>"

Im not crazy,seriously.I thought of this recently:Why not do the Alexina Server a favor and do something unheard of? That uheard of thing is called" Selling dyes for 500 gold each.Crazy? Only the dyes that I dont like.I dont like black,dark green,hot pink,dark red (or even red at all),grey etc.
Idea 2: Play Market Song Trivia
It works like this: I play some songs near my shop and ask for everyone to tell me the name of the song that I play.Whoever gets the song name right reduces the original price of the dye by 500g.If they get it wrong,the price is increased by 100g.Lowest price is 5k,highest is 1mil.
Idea 3: Same thing as Idea 2 only thing is that whoever gets it right first wins a free dye of their choice. (Only available as an emergency *Dyes I dont want that I must get rid of NOW* dump option)
**Also,there is this girl in Dunbarton who sells dyes for 35k every Thursday.Im saving up so if I see a dye I like,I can get it.**

The problem with that is while I know I don't want an item, I know someone else does, and they will pay for it, if you find the right person. A lot of the times now it's about finding the right person. This wouldn't be as much of an issue for me if I weren't trying to save up for things myself. However, people want things, and not everyone would be willing to go with this idea of selling what they don't want super cheap, so then you have at least a chunk of the population getting ripped off.
The ideas sound fun but right now, if people can make even a bit of gold from something, they'll probably try to sell it because of how hard it's getting for some to make gold. If I didn't have homework and classes to deal with right now I'd probably raft so hard I'd make 1m in a day, but I can't. x.x
