Suspecting economy manipulation

I am beginning to suspect that there is are large-scale gold farming groups which are controlling the prices of raw materials. All components seem to add up to the finished item price (crafting is nearly useless), and its all too perfect to just be players knowing what each item is worth. Not enough fluctuation.

I encourage ArenaNet to look into it because the economy on this game is boring as hell, and I normally love to trade & craft stuff, but there’s no point here.

You are exactly right. There is a large scale gold farming group that IS controling the market. Every player that has ever or will ever use the TP for any reason is a member. Welcome to the free market. Its a beautiful thing.

I’ve said it before, if you had the gold for a precursor when they were 90 gold you should have purchased one. Same applied at 600g. Same will apply at 900g. Imo.
