LOL.
Why would you send in a support ticket for someone trading freely in a game that's set up to be like a free market in the real world? That's almost like sending in a support ticket to MA saying that you can't make peds freely becuase sweating takes time and time is money....
Reselling = OK. simple. Its one of the professions in the game, why dislike the ones doing it?
yeah thats what im wondering my self, which is why i made the replys.
So please hold back your pre-judgments of 'he's a scammer' just because he's trying a different and new approach in this untrustworthy universe.
Lol, did you actually read my posts?
Sorry, the first part of my post was about you and how I could perceive some sort of anger from you towards Pirate for no reason. I then went off on one and by the time I talked about the part you've quoted me on I'd stopped referring to you. Sorry for misunderstanding especially if I inferred information incorrectly from your post.
i never saidd i made 100% on ur peds...
i think u misread the post
i cant make another 11k from 11k peds in a week....can u?)) u never said it but i know u do plz dont hustle a hustler
ok can someone please explain to me the difference of reseller?
because if someone baught sweat at really low price, and sold high they are
considered reseller scum...
then some person comes along with a few pretty graphs, and says i will give you a little % back, even though hes still buying low and still selling as high as he can.
to me there isn't any difference between the 2.
so why are we not accepting when some people resell, but its ok to publicly commit to others that say they resell?
is it because of the lack of pretty graphs, and projected professionalism?
so if i would put up pretty charts and post a investment fund, or business plan for this, could i get a free pass to buy sweat dirt cheap and sell really high with out fear of a ban?

Reselling sweat is generally frowned upon because those who do resell sweat often buy below market prices, generally (not always) from new players who have no idea of it's actual value, and then resell at a profit. In the case where it is an unaware new player that is being purchased from, this is seen as opportunistic. Taking advantage of ignorant people is scamming.
If you're at the point in-game where you're hunting/mining and on-selling loots to resellers such as LeBanner and Pirate, I'd go so far as to say, you should certainly have an understanding of how to judge the current market values of items based on the in-game facilities available to you and as such you are not ignorant and less likely to be taking advantage of.

so how is a 5 year old player that knows game trends pretty well not taking advantage of a 1 year player that is selling ores at current MU.
when we know the 5 year player will sell few months down the road when prices go back up.
i don't think a 1 year player knows market trends well, unless they are business savvy person.
so clearly that is a case of taking advantage of, because if the 1 year player knew the trend would raise the price in a few months i think that the player would hold onto the items until then.
but we could probably talk about case scenerios for hours.
so where does this madness end?

so why is everyone so concerned about wut i do with my stuff?
i may sell it today, tommorrrow or in 10 yrs or maybe i just have good contacts..
all it matters is i pay 2.5-3% intrest per week and also make some profit for myself.
its not specifically about what you do with your stuff, but what your class of people does (Trader/Reseller).
since everyone was backing your idea i thought to poke the minds of the people that went with your strategy to answer why possibly they see some traders as good people and some as bad people even though trading is trading.
though some types of trading are ethical issues. and some people care about ethics and others don't.
Your perception fails you - there is no anger.
I can understand that you predominantly want to see the positive sides in this as an investor... but you seem to miss my point entirely.
Business and trust are touchy subjects - bringing a service to attention the way it is done here doesn't imply that this service is something to place your bets on. Sure, one has to start somewhere... but to challenge someone who enjoys public confidence to that degree? Especially for someone who basically only resells ores/enmatter, one of the most hated things you can do...
Maybe let me condense this as follows:
"I'll pay like 0.5% more, but you 'll miss out on the trust for that - and if something doesn't work as expected i can't compromise because it isn't even my money i am dealing with here"
And that i see it this way is Pirates own fault - he came up with the comparison to lebanner... what a damn bad idea.
OK subscribing and a question
So the "buyers" they have to tell you what they want, how much the markup is and the amount or infinte? Do you give a time frame in which you will deliver the needs?
Just imagine I´d need 100 Dark Lavender Paint Cans for max 300%
or Burgundy for 200%
Well, maybe we should meet in Game and start with some trials
so i dont have ethics?
wut ethics would you associate with ghenu?
''pirate''...hmmm?is not a very cool 'name' for me..in a trade or any bussines.
