I have found a few max damage bows that looked too good to be true, and noticed the 14-28 on them. I check the damage now whenever I buy weapons.

Ye, quite sneaky tactic.....

I bought a req8 +15% (ench) Hammer on this Forum once and realized later that it was 18-35. But well....it was only 2k, I think.

it still can achieve max damage. just on occasion it can go 1 point less damage than a max weapon. honestly, when was the last time your enemy was at 1 hp? would that frustrate you, or make you laugh? a 14-28 isn't bad by any means.

Agreed. That is not a scam. And even if it was, you could not report him for that, and A.net won't ban him for it.
You agreed to pay the price and saw the item with your own eyes.

So what? Are you going to use it or brag about it? How much different is 14 than 15... pffffffft... and how often is it going to go down to 14?

And this boys and girls is why you want to stay in school. Learning to read is helpful.

I agree with lakatz, the fact that it is 14-28 doesn't make much of a difference imo. You should have plenty in marks so it shouldn't matter.

Not a scam and not really that sneaky either.
Trade window tells you exactly what you're getting and he never said it was max (when I see people advertising they say so). And really it's only one point. If you're overlooking it then I doubt you really care that much.

Hmmm. Even if he said 'max', would that be grounds to report him?

Because technically that bow can do max damage; only it doesn't have the max mean damage.

I really don't know why people are saying it's not a scam. The OP said himself, in the title, that it wasn't a scam...

Anywho, sucks to hear, man. I'll be sure to look out for that!

I'm going to remember that next time I sell weapons.

As for buying weapons, I don't. I use BMP weapons, which have better skins than weapons in the rest of the game. Particularly Tengu weapons.
