    Probably because you do farming rather than spend all day on the market. If I were you I wouldn't believe a word broke says, he has more CCs than most people can dream of.
    Personally I don't believe you ever see such bargains, but just make them up.
    For most people, you might get the odd bargain - considerably less than "normal" value, but mis-typed prices and vast quantities at 0.10CC happen to normal farmers maybe once a year, not several times a week.

    I'm not sure Jools. I went through a spell where at a certain time at the weekend, a particular farmer was selling off stuff at 0.10. I know they were obviously winding down their farm but I happened to stumble across it on at least two occasions. I don't study the market like Mr Broke but it happens more frequently than once a year. I have a huge supply of eggs and parrot feathers due to finding these amazing offers. :p

    I just wish I had a quicker finger. If I manage to land on the right product at the right time, someone always "swoops" in and beats me to most of the offers. But I have been lucky on occasion. :music:

    As you said, a couple of occasions
    do you ever hear broke say he was pipped to the post? I would be more likely to believe Pinochio :music:

    do you ever hear someone come back from the casino and say they lost $2,000. you only ever hear people tell you they won, its human nature.

    20 sheep wool @ 880 each
    5 ostrich egg @ 1500 each
    most of my time is spent on the market, what else can you do? watch the clock go tick tock. so many great deals, if i didnt have so many quests to complete all these items would go back on the market and i too would have 100million cc.
    it is amazing to see how many people put trades up cheaper than the first trade. a little trick i like to do to drive the price down is post items in batches of 1 or 2 progressively getting cheaper. sometimes you can start a wave driving prices down and sweep in an hour later and buy up large amounts at 20-30% discounts.

    Jealous Feelfree...I didn't wait long enough to buy pine nuts for the FSQ. Now prices are rock bottom. :cry:

    seems that way for everything i bought for fsq. i myself kept the prices high for every item in the fsq i was working on. what a joke.
    i paid between 850-1000 for most of the pine nuts i used for the quest. i will re-list when market climbs over 900 again.

    Found a listing for Kowhai 4 @ 305 BUT

    But it was my own listing :wuerg::wuerg::wuerg:

    Market was inactive so I hurried up and deleted and fixed the offer. :):):)

    Glad the Market Vultures were in their nests!

    I can't believe I missed that one mud_pie_man (aka: farmer broke) as I've recently discovered we are on the same market. ;)

    Nice to meet you. So another Market Vulture on the same market. I take the quick ccs everyday from the expensive tree fruit. It won't last.
