All merchers / economists / others please come here
I've a question but i can't find a good answer
In the new/less populated worlds (like Zenith+Kradia+Yellonde+Dementhos and more) what about prices there?
Are items more expensive in the less populated worlds since there is less supply?
For example : take a rare item, something like stirgeman pants, will it be worth more in the less pop. worlds or in the other worlds like Khaini/Scania/Bera...?
And the unique potted items are going down in prices right? Is that in every world because the legendary cubes?

It really depends what item we're talking about but let's say an item that hasn't been duped and such would be worth more in a more populated world, more demand with more supply beats less supply with less demand.
[quote=airforce1]It really depends. Rare items are usually worth more, but much harder to move if you don't happen to know someone specific who needs it. So depending on demand, it could be worth considerably more or essentially worthless if no one wants it. You also have to remember, there's a lot fewer mesos in circulation so people are more hesitant to buy.
Small worlds are very different from big worlds in economics.
I haven't noticed any significant changes in Unique equip items in Zenith. High % 18/21 will undoubtedly drop in price while crap pot uniques have risen.[/quote]
Well i have a stirgeman pant lvl 70 unique with HB for example, but would something like that sell?
You say it sells when people want it, when nobody wants it, its just worthless?

Then explain me this (Khaini)
Like 1-2 monts ago :
lvl 70 stirgeman pants unique with hb -> 2.5-3b
lvl 90 stirgeman pants unique with hb -> 4b-4.5b
Now :
lvl 90 stirgeman pants unique with hb -> sold for 2b
You tell me it did not deflate?
@Forbidius: So what you say is this :
A very good/rare item in a dead server is worth way more since there is less supply, but its hard to find a buyer
A very good/rare item in a non-dead server is worth less since there is more supply, but easy to find a buyer
And i was in Zenith and Kradia and Demethos to look around in FM, but in the worlds in FM1 there were all kind of rare items, and then in FM2 it was all crap, does that mean only a supersmall amount of people just own/control everything there?
@diredisc: Exactly what i thought, i just needed to know if this was true
