Well, as we all knowb:surrender, gold prices till growing up fast and more and more, doing it impossible to buy them, it's lame that the cheap one gold is at 1 million coins and more avery day, ok, it's an important task for discution, maybe pwi can fix a limit price for them, like 400.000 coins each turnning accesible to all who works to much for get items and more, it's an inflated economy and decrease interest of player for play the game, please, it's a problem for everybody b:bye

As we all know, the price of hold is going up quickly, making it impossible to purchase gold.b:surrender It's lame that the cheapest gold price is 1 million coins, and that it increases every day.
It is an important topic for discussion.
Perhaps PWI can create a fixed limit for gold price, like 400,000 coins each, making gold accessible to anyone that works for their money.
The high gold prices has created an inflated economy, and it decreases the interest of players of the game. This is a problem for everybody.b:bye
There, delete that horribad original post and put this in there. I don't really care about this topic, but at least now no one else will have to go through what I did (i.e reading your post)0 -

Simplest solution is worst solution. Put a hard cap on price of gold and the market for gold will develop outside of AH. All that happens is nobody uses gold trade in AH and buying/selling gold is inconvenient as hell.0

they remove it
what does this tell u about the chances of that?
i agree tho with warren post
ppl complain when gold high, ppl complain when gold low
ppl complain when tokens low, but tokens low when packs on sale, when gold is high
ppl complain when tokens high, but tokens high when packs not on sale, when gold is lower
... in a "perfect world"....
oh wait0 -

yeah, spiking gold prices can be a hassle sometimes. but it can also be profitable... just think forex b:victory0

I'm far to be defined a good player in this game, but I really think that spending more than 1mil for 1 gold it's a real pain for a normal player...
We are talking about weeks of farming/catshopping for just 1 gold, that, on its own, is useless...
And if you consider that gold price was just 400k a month ago..
will it get back to that price?0 -
I agree, they should put a limit to gold price, but that would prolly result in ppl buying less zen... so I guess it will never happen[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

Here is what the AH looks like with a 400k price limit.

The AH will just die. You can't force someone to sell gold for less than its worth. You can't expect to buy gold for less than its worth.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

If you want cheap gold in AH then ppl need to stop buying at high prices. Supply and demand.0

It really doesn't matter either way. When prices are high, it's hard to sell gold at the price you want. When prices are low, it's hard to buy gold at the price you want.
Either way, a limit is stupid. Gold started out at 800-900k on Sanctuary during Open Beta, dropped, and eventually went back up.
I'd MUCH rather have cheap tokens and expensive gold than the opposite. b:surrender Cheap subs would be nice though.101 Sage Sin*/Archer

This. Some easy calculations for you. For 1 gold you get 2.5 packs at current sale. In the worst case you get 37.5 tokens per gold. NPC price per token is 10k (9999) coins. So you gain 375k coins, with gold at 400k that's basically an infinite supply of packs, considering you get about one Best Luck Token every 60 packs (5M) and only pay 1.5M difference. So no, noone will sell gold in AH if it's capped at 400k, which means only cashshoppers are able to get packs, dictating prices entirely... GG"Of course you should fight fire with fire.

Purchasing power is not hindered upon gold prices going up from sales. Prices of gold going up won't affect how many units you can buy per gold.
A few specific examples from the Sanctuary Server:
A year ago ocean orbs were 75 gold @ 450K gold = 33.75M
Today ocean orbs are 25 gold @ 1100K gold = 27.5M
A year ago packs were 1 gold @ 450K gold = 450K
Today packs are 40 silver @ 1100k gold = 440K
If we were to be talking about real economic principles, not considering inflation, the goods from the boutique are over twice as accessible than they were a year ago. Whether gold prices go up or down, the market will always sustain a competitive equilibrium in the long run, if not more favorable for consumers.
Your supply for this year is going to be higher since gold prices are higher, whereas demand will remain about the same since prices will stay about the same throughout consequent years.BM PvP Guide: pwi-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=1320761

It's only getting easier for cashshoppers to obtain stuff, because they get cheaper orbs/packs and also get more coins per gold making constant costs like repairs or learning skills cheaper. This also leads to more supply, event items (excluding scroll of tome) are cheaper than ever."Of course you should fight fire with fire. You should fight everything with fire."
