    I want to deliver a few messages (written below) to them and if anyone has any ideas about how I can do that effectively, please let me know.

    #1 - Don't sell all your thirty Christmas Paint Brushes at once. :roll:

    #2 - If you want to put an item in your shop and it sells for 30,000 np+ and you see ONE GUY has it in their shop for 20,000 np, if you're not going to buy it yourself and resell then for GOD'S SAKE undersell the CROWD, not the yahoo who doesn't know what it's worth :evil:

    Well, you could probably write a SCAR script, or a simple program to neomail each one individually. I think.

    But what I want to know is why do you want to send them the message in the first place?

    Not really. If I understand what he wrote, I have to agree with DesertSong. Why complain about what is essentially free money :p

    wow

    I didn't think my post was that hard to understand, but let me explain it.

    Once upon a time, a Sketch Sandwich is selling for 30,000 np+. Everyone is happy and rich. Then some numnut comes along and wants to undersell everyone else, except instead of placing his for sale for 29,995 he puts it in his shop at a cost of 20,000 np. What should have happened is someone should have bought it and resold it for 30,000 np and everyone else should have listed theirs at a normal price, but instead more numnutses just looked, saw that the lowest price was 20,000, and they put theirs up for sale at 15,000. The downward spiral continued, fueled by idiocy, until the Sketch Sandwich was devalued to slightly over a 5000 np value.

    Make sense now?

    About the other, flooding the auction market with a ton of the same item WILL make for some happy buyers, but it's a dumb move on the seller's part and it pisses me off when I happen to be ready to auction the exact same item :evil:
