Marketplace abuse?

[koony]

Very few of these are legitimate if any...

So can someone tell me why people do this???

[Josh]

Because, they long for the day someone will be stupid enough to buy it.

That was one of my less appealing theories, I'm glad you think this too though.

The others were mainly, conspiracy theories

1. It was secret code amongst investors. (Buy buy buy!, Sell Sell Sell!)
2. Deliberate sabotage from underground traders/scammers.

I remember that happening.

People must be stupid if they buy things at those prices - unless they are leaving and want to give all of their money away.. ?

It's the cheapest offer and it just so happens it over expensive. I don't really think it's 'Marketplace abuse' unless the seller then bought their own item to boost the average value.

I think some people do it in hope, although you could do this with a clone to boost your item value

[Jin]

I wonder if it is some sort of default value in whatever you would call habbos database.

Could be what they do on world of warcraft to sell coins?

Somebody places an item at a high price and then the person selling the coins simply buys it and the buyer gets the coins.
