Bait and Switch clarification
Could someone clarify the third paragraph under "Bait and Switch" for me? Every time I read it, it gets more confusing. The trade is worth more than 100k, offering an item for twice what it's worth, the seller offers 15k worth of armor... huh?? I guess I'm not seeing the connection to the previous paragraphs that would make it make sense. — HarshLanguage 19:30, 11 December 2006 (CST)
 * I believe the clarification you're looking for is in the "100k+ transactions" section, farther down. It's incredibly easy for someone to scam you while selling something for more then 100k, unless they give you aditional items (such as their armor as insurance). It is a rather confusing section though, as is the entire "insurance" idea... as I hold onto their 15k armor set to make sure they don't take off with my 100k, they take off with slightly more gold then they need to buy a new set of 15k armor... Argh, I think I've confused myself now. Sorry in advance... I've just given the next poster here twice as much to explain to both of us... Jioruji Derako 10:04, 4 January 2007 (CST)
 * ah, never mind. I think I got it now... HarshLanguage, just read the 100k+ section first, then the bait and switch section. Makes much more sense that way around. Jioruji Derako 10:06, 4 January 2007 (CST)
