Acid Flux Posted: I never said that all of my items were limited to a 15% markup. I have toyed with the idea of having a specific markup percentage for all items. However, that’s not how the market system effectively works. Anytime I introduce a new item, there is a period of ‘market testing’ to see what people are willing to pay for an item. If I find that I am having to restock items constantly, I adjust the price up. If I find that items move sluggishly, I adjust prices down. This is supply & demand. Additionally, I monitor other legitimate Sellers to see what their items are selling for, and adjust my prices accordingly. I even communicate with other Sellers to make sure that we are offering fair prices across the board. |

Can’t we just say caveat emptor and let people sell for whatever they want? Nobody’s being forced to buy anything here – if a buyer’s too lazy to do the research on prices, or simply has so much to burn that it doesn’t matter, that’s not the seller’s fault.
Besides, it’s only Flezz. |

I guess I don’t see what the big deal is. Acid isn’t running a charity; he’s running a store. If you can get the same items for less from somebody else or by taking the time to adjust your frugality, then do that if you want. But he isn’t exactly hypnotizing the mbumes and forcing them to buy from him. |
