Default Post Items in Pre

Ok, so this is CRAZY. Has NE one else seen this? I was just sitting in pre today and someone says WTS Bags (hold 10) 3k and max weapons. I was like no way so I had to see so i traded w/ them and sure enough they had post items. How is this happening, does NE one know?

Mod Edit: Please don't post the names of the person and people chatting from the image. Please consider sending the screenshots you took to ANet and let them deal with the whole situation.

I'm finding the 15>50 req9 blue longsword pretty surprising as well.

Unless that's a photoshop job, that's some sort of cheat/hack.
Report it to ANet right the frick now, before it spreads. That kind of crap can truly destroy a games economy.

Like I said: REPORT!
Go here: http://www.guildwars.com/support/
and follow the instructions. Include screenshots if you got any.
The sooner you do this, the better for everyone (except the hacker/exploiter).

Mindboggling.
Not only the fact that he somehow bypassed the system, but does he really expect pre-searing chars to have enough money to make it worth?
My pre-searing chars were hardpressed to have 1k...

(not that i would approve if they had enough money, but it made no sense)

This isnt a very serious problem. Those items wont have much utility in pre-searing anyway and balance is a non-issue at that point in the game even if they did. So what if someone can carry around a fellblade ? Its not going to do them much good.

it does break the pre searing economy somewhat as well as dye farming pre becomes a fesiable prop...no having to relevel a character after filling your invi with black dye

What level does a monster / enemy have to be to drop max items be it white,blue,purple or gold?

I have had a purple armor drop from the charr in the mission where you have to escort the ranger back. (across the wall or whatever its called)

What if someone was going in there and lvling some of the charr there? (you know where you go, die, go die. If this does indeed work, I myself have not tried this).

Maybe just maybe, thats all.

Well, I tried to see if the Guild Button was there and it isn't for my Pre char. So either ppl are mistaken, or they've already fixed it.

If the GMs think it's fine, why not post this? I really wonder how to get those items in Pre.
