Best ones are those who buy from you then later on find out they paid ridiculous overpriced for it.


Can't count the times any more someone started raging in local/through mail to me or fellow traders about how they where gonna crash the markets to kill all profits because earning more then 10% mark up was pure theft.The few who did try and keep their word did it for only a few days to find out hauling crap can be quite boring.Offfcourse if you charge profit like you should then you can courier it Blink .
And then there's the select few who will wardec you for either being a pricy seller in their views or because you just came to their hub as the new competitor to dump on the market.I never understood the idea behind wardeccing/hiring mercs against a fellow stationspinner .

Best ones i get from those i offer a price for their bpo and they find it way too low or those who want to buy a bpo from me yet find my price way too high.Odd how these can tick someone off more then regular marketing in my experience yet usually they contain more strong language then i get from any pirating slack i get in low-sec .

We are all born ignorant, but one must work hard to remain stupid.

Hi !
I bought a Krestel to you for 430M !!!
It's obviously a mistake: I read 430K, the normal price for this frigate.
If you think it's normal to do that, it's ok, unless I ask you to send me back unless 400M, I give you the 30M difference.
Thanks in advance.

I have a bundle of letters from various disgruntled individuals demanding to know why I slashed a particular margin by a few million and refused to just 0.01 like everyone else.

I usually just go back and slash it out of existence.

My kind of pvp.

I once had a large amount of T1 mining lasers for sale for about 38k and one person accidentally bought 1 for 40m. He screamed and raged at me and placed a bounty on me, all while I was offline at work.

I find it funny that his one purchase paid for the hundreds of lasers that I bought to turn a profit.
