So just kind of a discussion post. I am never worried about selling and item, every item evetually sells and worse case I can always liquidate at buy orders and break even or lose a little.
My question is this:
I belive putting an item at a sell price that is in the middle or lower middle will eventually sell and I do not have to .01 isk war. However I find it tougher to secure items and find that I do have to battle to get the items.
I was surprised to find that even though I was most likely .01 iskd I was still able to secure my items at the price I put the buy order up. Would it simply be better to place the order and let it sit, or does .01 isk really make the difference. I mean yea if you need it within 10 mins but oes it really make a difference to a trader? Thoughts? I always thought if people could just get the concept of your order will be filled there would be less .01 isk wars? |

Your order might get filled however it probably won,t get filled as fast as if you were 0.01 isking to have more uptime as the top buy order...
Buy more = sell more = make more money
just my 2 cents |

If you're sure you want to sell in the mid-range, why not just buy from the cheapest buy orders and relist a little higher? |

Because: a) greater chance for loss b) less proffit |

You forgot: c) Less work. Which is the reason why you don't 0.1 ISK all day.  |

Buy and sell on trends. No one can beat you with 0.01 ISK games if you are already there. |
