    It's not scamming.
    They're simply raising the price on the items, and if people are too lazy to check themselves what the price is, it's their fault for losing their coins.

    Either don't be an idiot, and watch the prices, or don't do CS at all.

    Also, use the damn search function next time please. There are plenty of threads about this.

    No, he brought up a legitimate point and your too busy being a crybaby to understand that your not going to get an answer you like.

    Kind of agree with Bwanden, but it really wouldn't take that much effort for a GM to check out that little spot in arch on the few servers we have. Just doing that once every week would discourage most of the scammers.

    Catshoppers need to stop QQing and realize that people will take advantage of you in-game just as quick in real life.

    Learn to do some research next time. b:bye

    Also, I bet most of you QQers would not be pming Catshoppers who under-price items instead of buying them out and selling them at 800% profit.

    I am sure Hamsta will pretend to not even know who you are just like everyone else on Lost City. We are embarrased to see such stupidity on our server.

    GTFO and stop posting.

    That's a mistake the majority of the time while overpricing is an attempt to take advantage of people. Yes, it's possible that overpriced catshops are because of mistakes too. One extra zero - excusable; two to three extra zeros - ban eeet nao.

    Looks like the ones who QQ about this actually got 'scammed'.

    I always check what I'm buying, so that the catshops try to do that doesn't affect me.

    ^That.

    If it happens on real life, why not in a game? -__-

    Who warns catshops that they stuff missed a zero or two and they are missing to much money?

    But no. The ones adding more zeros are the only wrong ones. >_<

    And he is very correct. Perhaps everyone who has bought something UNDER-priced should be banned?

    What is your opinion on that StinkyFish??

    OK, I'm about to rant here ...

    Yes, the buyer should beware. Of course he should. At the same time, a scam is a scam. You people act like there's nothing wrong with it, and that's ridiculous.

    If I get robbed because I forgot to lock my door, shame on me for making that mistake, but that guy is still a thief, and he's still going to be arrested if they catch him. The same is true with catshop scammers. Yes, you should have paid more attention before you bought the item. Obviously. But that guy is still a scammer, and I have no idea why people seem to be defending them like it's some kind of right to deliberately cheat people in the game.

    And, yes, of course people make mistakes and type the wrong price sometimes. That isn't a scam. And, yes, some people try to charge high prices to see if they can raise the price or find a sucker. That isn't a scam. But what about the people advertising "S>FlwlsCitrine" spamming Archosaur every 10 seconds about their "bargain" prices, but they're only selling shabby shards? And you PM them about their scam, and they ignore you, in spite of the fact that they're spamming out chat every 10 seconds? That's a scam. If you want me to beware as a buyer, then I'm going to ask you to use a little common sense about what is and isn't a scam. Don't try to tell me that guy "accidentally" entered the wrong name and the wrong price and "accidentally" spammed the wrong information all day.

    A scam is a scam, and it doesn't matter if the guy who fell for it was kind of foolish.

    Wow.

    Fail troll is fail.

    And I don't understand the original statement or the reply:

    Original statement: "and all you trolls going vs me you all cat shop scammers hope you get banned"

    The words are in English, but they are just in jumbled order. Something about trolls and scammers is all I can make of it.


    Reply: "Fail troll is fail." -- Two misuses of the word "fail" in a 4 word sentence. That has to be a record.
    Since when did the word "fail" change from a verb to an adjective? A character can "fail" (as a verb) or be a "failed" character (as an adjective), but there is no such thing as a "fail" character.

    If "Barb" (not "arian") is short for Barbarian and "Veno" (not "mancer") is short for Venomancer then shouldn't we be calling Assassins something other than "sins"?

    What I get out of this sentence: "and all you trolls going vs me you all cat shop scammers hope you get banned" is: "everyone who doesn't agree with me is a troll who also uses catshops to scam people". Talk about trolling and insulting.

    The more threads for this topic the better. Maybe it might save someone some coins - maybe not.

    Catshops are a waste of bandwidth anyway. Make a global trading panel where you can quickly compare prices or search without visiting every nitwit cs in Arch
