To be fair, they do keep the little markup we have high aswell.. If there are no resellers everything will be 101%...
not totally agree with this.
Just try to sell some deeds.
You post a offer and minutes later AGT has placed a trade 1ped lower then yours.
Now try to sell more deeds and see what happens to the price. it will crash since he will automatically undermine your offer
Now try to place an order.
It's useless, since within minutes they've placed an order +1 pec.
These 2 persons totally dominate the auction on the mentioned items.
But now you can use them to manipulate prices.
If you want to buy a lot of CLD's, just sell a small stack first. place an offer, let him undercut. Then undercut him so he will undercut you again and so on.
With just a handfull of deeds you can easily get the CLD price down. Since they're very predictable.
They force everybody to sell to their orders and buy from their offers. Simple as that.
They drive the price down faster than normal with negative sentiment, but also drive the price up faster than normal with positive sentiment.
I do also suspect them using bots, bot that I can not prove. Thats just a hunch.
They're just auction blood hounds and I personally pay a ped more to buy from another player.
*edit*
PS. I dont mind resellers. But these guys are just acting to aggressively for my likings
