I am STRICTLY against GC, i don't support the GC system and refuse to buy it. Last time i spent $1 on gaia was to get entered into that platinum ticket raffle that they NEVER held
crying
any Tier items or Cash shop items were all given to me by friends to help with my platinum ticket quest. I dont pay attention to the tier rewards or the cash shop.
Well the market has been very good to me. Having 6000 items in my inventory, my account worth usually fluctuates by inflating in my favor, like you said, small little items have started to inflate since they are cheap to buy with GC and you dont have to convert the Gc to Gold. I believe High dollar items like halos Dj's ext will also stay high because people can ust buy them for Gc instead of vending for months like i had to

Really? Woah. I should apologize then. I guess I've just assumed it was impossible to become a trillionaire - quadrillionaire on Gaia without spending on GC.. even more-so now that GC is on the Marketplace. But yeah, you do have many item, plus you've probably been at it for a while, gaining experience and snowballing funds, etcetera . (Myself, I've tried it, but I'm not great at it - I get too attached to what I buy - because I only buy stuff I at least like in case I make a bad choice and I end up at a loss - and I rarely sell because it might inflate and I wont be able to buy again.)I'll bet good vendors are the type who could sell their favourite items with confidence when it's really high and wait 'til the price drops and then buy it back.
For me, the Market (and it's graphs) be like a roller-coaster. Sometimes, I have no idea if the item I'm selling/buying is going to be cheaper/expensive the next day. Of course, I'm not the best at reading the market, but if you sit on an item long enough it's bound to be worth more eventually
...of course that depends on how attractive-looking is the item. I find ugly things don't sell quite like they used to since Gaia has started mass-producing items. Though I would think the mass-producing would be a good thing. Like, more variety means items won't be able to inflate as quickly? Because if there are 100's of legs pose items, I'd think that a person who wants one will go for the cheap ones, forcing the more expensive ones to go cheaper. 3nodding
Yeah, dont worry no biggie. alot of people think its impossible to become wealthy on this site without spending Gc but thats not the case. Tbh, i have so many real life expenses, i cant afford to spend my hard earned money on here. I taught myself to vend way back in 2009 but took a 4 year break and came back to nothing. So i jumped back on the vending horse, starting with 10b and didnt stop until 4 months later when i bought angelic halo. i didnt Buy anything for myself, i wore a bunch of cheap funny avi's until i got my halo. its all about the bigger picture. sure, you love your items now, but you'll love them more when you can buy those same items x1000 after you profit off them, which was my theory. i actually got lucky, since i traded my angelic halo (6T) for Rainbow ticket (4T) plus Dj's (1.5T) plus 500b. the next day i sold the Dj's and every other item i owned to get a 2nd rainbow ticket for 4T. those two decisions made me over a 50T return and helped build the wealth i have today. I got lucky, but there are many other opportunities out there, you just have to spot them, and get them before the other guy. you also have to have a goal, my goal was Sdplus Gaian Braintology which i can buy now, but just dont desire really any more since ive made 9 of my own recolors ext ext.
I truly hope you the best in your ventures, i offer alot of vending advice to my guild members and friends, so if you ever have a question just Pm me. I want everyone in gaia to be as successful as me, at least the ones that try.
