Seeing 'a similar' item on xyz doesn't mean anything. Maybe you should look at what those item's are actually worth and selling for.


How exactly do you check what items are "worth" and what they sell for without investigating similar items on xyz?


'the fuck are you talking about? When did I say not to check XYZ? I said to actually check it, like a competent person, instead of just 'finding the lowest listed item from someone who hasn't been online in a month then adding a few chaos and telling yourself you are trying to overy-pay.'


Sorry, but "common sense" such as investigating multiple of the low-price spectrum and the activity of their sellers does not make you "competent", it just makes you "not horribly stupid".

Uh, actually, it does.

Competency is relative to the task at hand and 'investigating multiple of the low-price spectrum and the activity of their sellers' is all you need to do for success.

Not sure if there's a point to you posting this though...? Could you move on?

The seller you dislike so much is being lazy by just typing "Offer?" instead of "C/O is y, B/O is Z, what's your offer?" and you are being lazy by not typing "Hi, c/o and b/o for xxx?".

The flaw there is with xyz indexing engine, it should remove items from threads that haven't been updated for X weeks. And yes, finding your old thread and deleting it is an incovenience. It is also an incovenience for the buyer to actually check that the threads xyz refers to has not been updated in weeks.

That's how it goes most of the time for me.
I'm sure this is how it goes for the vast majority of the PoE players.

I thought it does that. If not then yeah it definitely should.

Same experience here.

Never had a problem with anyone that has listed a buyout.
