Sometimes it may occur that or the server is still fresh or no one has the item. When you want to sell that item, you should make your price by the difficulty you had to obtain the item (aka the item's rarity). For example: You were the first one to drop a Burning Bow from a Kasa and it took like 400 monsters to drop. You won't really make it cheap. Another thing that bothers me is the number 1 on your list. I love having people say the price they wanna pay. Sometimes when you announce you're selling something (telling people to make their offers) and get THOUSANDS of whispers you have a HIGH probability of finding someone who is willing to buy the item and WILL pay a price lot higher than you expected. Not being rude but Ragnarok isn't real life so the grocery store won't match. This is called merchanting. Underpricing might seem bad for the economy but sometimes you simply have to do it. When there are lots of people selling them and people don't seem to be buying it, making the item a few (or more than a few) thousands of Zennies lower might just get you a buyer. I don't really like your "Always bargain". Buyers probably like it but sellers DON'T (most of them actually). If I state the price of an item for 200k, I really WANT 200k for it. I could make for 19xk but nothing less. Sometimes when the buyer is really persistent, I simply don't sell for him. Hope I could give out my opinion clearly =] People really should start following this.
