I don't think so. That's ignorance on the buyers part. i feel like mis-representing an item would be scamming such as a blank spell book being sold as a full one. I see no issue with selling lets say a force spear for 900k if someone is willing to pay it.Mephistopheles wrote:Selling something for much more than it is normally worth on the forums: Bannable or no?
Since doing so is a "fraudulent" action, I would guess yes.

Unfortunately for you, what players tell you on the subject means nothing. What the staff's perception of scamming and the case someone will bring against you means everything.Mephistopheles wrote: Just wanted to cover my bases for future transactions
So that's a yes to the over-pricing?noxmonk wrote:Unfortunately for you, what players tell you on the subject means nothing.

I'd say yes., go for it As long as your not lying about what you're selling.So that's a yes to the over-pricing?
In the second case you're lying about the item. It's not a rare.selling an open bag of flour for 100k because a player thinks its a rare (not scamming)
Telling a playing that an open bag of flour is a rare then convinceing him its worth 100k (scam)
In other words, I wanted to make sure that I wouldn't get banned for trying to sell a Plain T-Map for 20K.Mephistopheles wrote: Just wanted to cover my bases for future transactions

The rule applies to IRC and Forums only.
I don't want to get into defending this rule, I'm a bit iffy on it myself, but it is the rule currently.
Scamming would be advertising full spellbooks for sale when they are empty, no matter the price.
It would not be scamming to be selling spellbooks for any price that you and the buyer agree upon.
The existance of this rule does not warantee any transaction by staff. We will not interere in any in game transactions no matter where the transaction was advertised. Buyer beware.
