Maybe someone can help me understand this concept, because I just plain flat out don't grok it!
Everytime I am perusing the broker, I see players who are trying to resell items purchased from NPC merchants. I'm not talking about selling drops to other players... I get that, I'm talking about items that are common to NPC merchants in the different zones.
Like T4 food & drink or backpacks that can be bought from the merchant standing on the dock in Enchanted Lands... Now it's not like you couldn't get there yourself... it's the dock for cryin' out loud... there are no aggro mobs on the docks and anybody... even a lvl 5 toon could get there safely!!!
So what is the deal? Are there players who are so dumb that they will pay both a player and a broker markup to get items that they could easily have bought for themselves simply by making a quick run through the bells to a higher end zone?
Or does this junk just sit there in the seller's inventory taking up room like a crate full of pet rocks?
I admit it... I am perplexed...
