HandsomeLooker1492 Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 I thought this was a real update which was not. The economy is fine. Link to comment
Toupi Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Im not specialist or anything. For me it looks like: - They want to reduce thrash on GTL (4weeks->3weeks & max listing 300->250) - Encourage ppl to list more items in 1 stack (min fee 100$-150$ but max stays the same). Maybe to avoid situation in which someone lists 200 berries in stacks of 10 to fill first results I dont know why min price for pokemon was rised. Maybe so new ppl wont "sell" mons for -100$? Dunno Why do you think those changes will affect economy in any way? Link to comment
Quakkz Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 can't really tell if it will have an huge impact, for me personally it wont make a difference Link to comment

Maybe to avoid situation in which someone lists 200 berries in stacks of 10 to fill first results 'Taxes for items are now calculated per-item instead of per-stack' So it's quite the opposite really...Since people will be paying tax per piece now. It discourages single listing rather than encourage. For example, Let's take an item X which is worth 100k, As per old system: If someone made a listing 99*X, their potential max profit revenue is 9.9m. But instead of the 5% tax of 495k, they paid 25k tax. As per new system: If someone makes a listing 99*X, their potential max profit revenue is 9.9m. And they will pay 5% tax, which is 495k. So even if they go ahead and make 9 listing of 10*X & one of 9*X, they would still be paying 495k tax in the end. Therefore, people would now prefer to make more listings than just one listing so as to cover the whole page with their stuff. Toupi 1 Link to comment
fredrichnietze Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 i think this is rather dumb because all you have to do to avoid this tax is just not use the gtl. people traded before gtl and it was cancer and if the cost is high enough, you can just go back to the cancer system of spamming WTT in global jajaja busco 想要交易 Link to comment

Dunno Why do you think those changes will affect economy in any way? i think those change will mainly affect the breeder market has it will now be a much less profitable way to make money. this basically fuck over one way of making money. also the listing time being lower just hurt the market of item that don't sell very fast such has specific breeder/ rare item/ shiny i can see the good point in the new way to tax stack and the maximum listing but the rest is just hurting more than anything else.

This gonna hurt their pockets a bit, rich guys which don't care to pay 2.5k and other ppl who still prefer buy, instead of farming it, cuz we all know farming shittos is really boring ~ imo.
