Why would someone trade 200 of his ecto for 200 zkeys. It beats all logic but ....... can someone comeup with a plausible explenation for this.

I PM'ed the guy afther the trade but he was ofline. My question remains....why?

Needed the keys really bad? or maybe he didnt know the increase in ecto value and was still going for 1 ecto = 1 key

Or maybe he's trying to trick someone in trading 200 mursaat tokens (or other items that look similar to real ectos) for 200 keys.

No. He posteted WTT my XXX ecto for your XXX zkeys; and i was quick to repond. The trade went soomth and was over within 10 seconds. But the shock still lingers on.

Gotta have those zkeys man!

Maybe all he needed was 200 keys to finish his title? Who knows. Who cares. Count your ectos while saying "My preciousssss"!

You are soon going to be suspended for a month for in-game fraud. Have a nice day.

Sike.. you just got lucky finding a desperate person.

If you scam, you get suspended for 15 days. I would just be glad some noob fell for it. Go on in life.

While it's kinda on-topic, what's the trade rate these days?

He did it so you could come here and post about what a great deal you got.

He probably had a bunch of ectos stolen from hacked accounts and needed to dump them quickly before ANET caught up to him... What better way to move hot items then to sell them low.
