Aritificail Inflation Anybody?

[Coburn]

I don't have to explain what AI is... I hope....
Anyway, We should discuss this.
I was thinking of possibly doing it with
WTF? Hat, There's only 16 listings.
And for you rich people out there
Ancient Katana. Theres only 53 listings at this time.
But yea. Anybody up to try and make some quick profit?

I don't really think this works to well because as soon as the price inflates, more people will list and due to competition, bring the price right back down. i know from experience.
Though this might work for uncommon items. The katana inflation definitely will not work.
Also, no one is going to buy the inflated items (at least the smart ones), they'll just wait for it to fall back down.

Just so you know, gaia sometimes banns/suspends you if you do this. Some people once inflated the price of a Panda Backpack from like 50k to 700k, some/most of those people were banned. Temporarily at least.

ALso buying a lot of high value items does attract suspicion to your account.
