Inflation.. Are you tired of people selling credits for retarded prices?
I've just about had it with these high credit prices... So I wanna hear your opinions on how we're gonna deal with this.

Easiest step would be for people to stop posting them for ridiculous prices and actually post them for the old price of 300 points/1.5mill per credit, in terms with that and the new cred set up, so 30 points/150k each.

But the inflators don't care about how they're killing the game. They're selfish ppl who're only interested in making a quick buck.
Allow me to repeat my question: how are we gonna deal with this?

People can sell for whatever they want. No matter if they sell or not. Prices go up after a while. It's called inflation. You can't expect people to sell for the lowest price all the time. Credits go for whatever people are willing to pay regardless of what they are worth. I hope prices drop but they only way is for a lot of credits to hit the market. When people purchase Land, Exp packs, ext... with credits they remove them from MK and therefor prices go up. When deals for these Items are up, prices go up. Simple as that.

the only bonus pack available right now is the 122.5k pack.. Which is average of 31 points per credit.. the cheapest credits i seen in a long time is 35 points each.. So credits have surpassed even the 50% bonus points pack.. That's a tad high..

Yeah that is the only one available NOW. The 30 acres of land for 200 credits just went off market 2 days ago. I think everyone will agree that was the best deal on this game. Then it said it only had 8 packages left for a while. I bought 2 of them and it still was at 8 left. I know quite a few people that bought that deal. A lot of credits left the game because of this. Sad to say but people just need to donate. That's what it boils down to.  It will take a while for prices to drop.  Sad

-->KS420 people donating wont help either after the credits get in the wrong hands.

Well I have been thinking that maybe if the admin could put a maximum cost for selling credits and points

credits 30points-40max
($150k-$200k)

points $5k-$6k max

What do you guys think about this idea?

I do agree with you Selet ;]

the market determines the prices for players using it.. items will sell for what players are willing to pay.. my best deals are made by escrow.. it just seems like a better form of business... more personal...

I agree with Mach that prices are ridiculous right now.. However, I don't think there is much we can do about it, as long as there are greedy sellers, and uninformed buyers, inflation will continue to climb and be a problem in MK.
