He stated he wanted a "Healing" att. Holy Vial. ?? was my response there are no Healing Att. Holy Vials. Then a few min later I see from someone else, "WTS R9 Insc. Gold Holy Vial 75K" I just had to laugh.

Same day someone spams "Want to take screenie of a Blk Dyed Voltaic Spear for Guild Website paying 10K". again i had to laugh, but got me to think.

Cheating in real life is for real money. But WTF why commit an act of bad karma for virtual crap? I mean lie and cheat for pixels? WOW!!!! you need help.

Cause Karma is a joke.

WTF? Power traders do that all day; it's the best way to gain high levels of money fast.

Always get a price check before you buy or sell, if your not sure ask guildies. if something sounds like its too good to be true, then it probably isnt true.

So fraud shouldn´t be punished? You can always say it was the victims fault.

Good luck trying to convince any judge of that. I would love to see your face, when he laughs in it.

In contract law, a contract exists when two parties intend to enter into legal relations and each offer consideration. Consideration does not have to be adequate. So long as each party is offering to the other something of value, a legally enforceable contract exists.

This is the reason why in the bodies of law dealing with wills and estates, when creating a living will, you offer your goods in return for the beneficiary's love plus a dollar.

So yes, you would be able to prove to a judge that a legal contract existed, regardless of the lopsidedness of the trade.

Caveat emptor little man, caveat emptor.
