Not sure if this had anything to do with it maybe it was just patched in but when i logged on this morning i went to the willowwood merchant to sell all my junk stuff and items that used to sell for 55c was sellin for 16 to 17 silver.
That sounds like the sort of thing they'd rollback for. If there was a goldrush they can't easily act against the players without admitting their mistake. Rolling back will correct the situation.
I am not fond of conspiracy theories but it does make you wonder if the plat industry has a mole at SoE. Some items changed price to create similar massive profit opportunities in EQ. Of course they denied any inside involvement but who else can change the NPC prices?
Old EQ players will remember the Great Cheese Rush. SoE is quite good at this sort of ****-up. As a programmer I would have thought it fairly easy to create a policing application to continuously search for unbalanced prices on NPC vendors.
