EVE General Discussion

Pls consider keap balance in market ( Keap balance between Sales Tax and broker Fee its important for game)

What is market? what is it?
Answer:

1. Producers / miners / ratters.
2. Buyers.
3. Market traders.

With all 3 things everything works fine.

But 3. Point to exist fine need Higher Sales Tax than Broker Fee, becaues Producer usualy sell Goods to Market Trader on "buy Order" to avoid and dont pay Sales Tax, usualy dont want wait so long as trader.
Now when Seles Tax is around 20% costs ( 2x broker + Tax) most producers will decide sell themselves, what in my opinion will disfunction markets.

-Stiupid things will happend more often like difrence beetween buy and sell will be lower than transaction costs.
-Higher broker fee than tax makes less Orders on market.
-less Transaction, ppl will think twice before set up order.
-Haulers will hurt smaller hubs will slowly die.
-Now Broker fee was risen 10 times 0.18% to 2.00%. !! that insane.
-Old balance between tax and broker was around 1:3 ratio > 0.75% to 0.18%


Pls consider to hold healthe balance beetween broker Fee and Tax
we dont care how much % u will set up but hold balance like it was in past, Ratio with higher Sales Tax!

Not sure about the poster above me but I agree with the OP.

The large increase in Tax and Brokers Fees is not a good business decision by CCP. People play this game to make ISK and have the freedom of choice to play how they want, not be forced to play how others want them to play.

Probably best to start reprocessing assets into minerals before that also get's taxed to high hell.

Nobody want build second jita , its abaut destroying markets current situation makes effeort wich ppl place in trade skills and standing not rewarding, in past doing standing u could get 1.25% > 0.18% profit for doing standings skills 600% now 3% > 2% , profit 50%, curent change kill traders, all of them haulers , market traders. Its not abaut jita, jita will hurt less smaller hubs like hek, dodixie, ammar will hurt more, its bad for customers ,producers too, they have to sit and sell good themselfs.

Disfunction of market , why ccp created Trade skills? they dont mater so much anymore. will be no profesions anymore. Its bad for game, this game was great because u could do many things in it. U could choose be miner, trader, Rattkiller, ...


look on ppl in trade hubs, usualy when jita had 1500ppl asame time ammar had 500 , 1:3 ratio, now jita like 1600, ammar like 200 1:8, after die small hubs, some big coalition will build citadel hub? high broker fee makes hauler work not profitable, thats why smaller hubs will shrink a lot.

Wont happen, CCP sunk too much time into Citadels for them to fail.

Don't like the fees? Erect a Citadel and supply a market for it.

It's going to be a slow and painful process for those who don't want to migrate. Which is fine because there's more opportunities for isk to be made.

Point is, get out of NPC stations.

Nobody understand topic,

1.topic is abaut balance between Sales Tax and broker fee , in past Tax was 3 times higher than broker!!(0.75% >0.18%)
Was good wasnt punishing ppl for not sold orders. was 1:3
if broker is 2% tax should be abaut at least 1:2 minimum 4%.

2. Profit for geting perfect skills and standings .
if Tax is 5% should be around 1% after skills and standings. Profit for get skills 500%
if broker fee base is 5% now after skills should be around 0.5-1.25% around 500%.
Now is 50% not enough to pay off effort for geting skills 3% >2% broker fee down.

3. To high broker fee 10times more 0.18% > 2.0%

BTW Trade citadels sooner or erlier will be burned down. Side effect , destroyed market balance wich was working many years. They wanet replace broken POS mechanics and spagheti code of POS. As i've heard . Why destroy market too.
