Default Economics

This doesn't quite qualify as a game suggestion, but only a complaint to an emerging problem. I'm just posting this to see if i have some support.

Gold... well every games got it, but of course you always get to a point in most games where just about anything is chump change. In Guild Wars, I haven't reached that point, specifically because... lots of things are expensive and i have more than one character. So, to all you people that claim to make 20k an hour, i know you don't care. But i, apparently, am not capable of that.

I tend to make good money off selling things like fur and linnen and steel and the sort. I've been keeping track of the market for a while now. and there are some huge inconsistencies (god, i butchered the spelling on that one) that i'm sure you've all noticed. Theres an example right now. Fur costs 550 for one. but if you buy 10 it costs 17k. One might think u'd save a little if you bought by ten. Of course, thats not really the problem i have. the problem i have is that i'd figure that more people would buy them in ones... thus the demand would go up. so y does the price by 10's continue to rise?

Also, I wish Fansite Friday would get some questions about economics answered. For example; why did the price of every superior rune rise in the same three day period. sup. healing is up to 75k for example. Also, major's have risen as well which is a shame to all the middle class characters like me who bought those instead of superiors. lots of superior runes that weren't very popular used to be below 1k... now every single sup. rune (except for one necro one right now) is over 1k....

One more thing, black dye used to hover aruond 7-10k ... but all of a sudden it sky rockets to 34k... i don't see what could trigger such a change... i dont' assume that one would try to convince me that people continued to buy it (thus increasing the demand) when it was on the rise in the 20's... i don't understand why it hasn't cooled off. Of course... this one hits home the most for me, cuz i sold when it was at 12k and thought i was looking pretty good cuz i got 9 for it... but then 2 days later it was at 30... very disappointing.

I just wish i knew wut the deal was with the economy going nuts.
