People complain about manufacturers gouging on prices. PS may be gouging you, not IRON or me.
IRON, and myself do not sell equipment at Vanasbara. If you buy items there you may be supporting profiteering by PS. They have been buying equipment meant for you the players, and reselling at a profit (not a bad thing, but not something i will support, as it hurts you the player). Yeah, I know some dont want to believe I want the average players to enjoy, have a good time, and advance, but i do. I really enjoy this game, and have been playing since 6 am the very first day.
Any abuse means there will be no more general SdF equipment posted to the market. This will mean that If you want power generators, you will have to pm me and let me know how many, and I will make them for you at market price. If this inconveniences you, take it out on PS.
If PS is abusing the market, PS will get no equipment from me, and I hope I can convince IRON of that also.
If i find them doing this with other equipment, that equipment will also be removed from the general market.
there is nothing wrong with reselling equipment when you upgrade, but i will not support an organized effort that unnecessarily squeezes money out of you, the straightforward players of OE.
Please watch the market large quantities of power gens at Vanasbara with the IRON logo are the result of marketeering.

FYI PS, the gens posted at Vanasbara appear to be .43 and .46, I wouldn't say these are out of date or obsolete.
if they only use the best equipment available they are. there are .49 on the market and .52 or higher also exist.
however, thank you for your attitude Sammy. i thought about reselling Atom's PGs myself but it would be unfair towards both the players and the manufacturers.

Selling off products you bought from Atom or other Iron player at retail value and used until you upgraded that part is fine. When a large number of an item is sold to a player and they are moved and put up for sale a few systems over on the same day for a higher price is where the issues start. I myself have bought 1 or 2 too many of an item from someone else due to lag or mistake on my part. I normally try to contact the seller if it is known or place them back on the market at same or cheaper price than original seller.

While i understand your thinking Saripul, I think Sammy is more upset the parts are being sold at a hiked up price and potentially making it seem as if he is the one doing it. Seeing as if you see a large sum of the parts being sold carrying someones name, most people will assume it's the creator trying to hike up the price. This is why I think it could be helpful to add the sellers name to listings as in other MMO game auction houses.
