I put two sets of BD on the market, one sold after a bidding war, the other sold at original posted price.. so its most likely just bad timing : you are both on at same time wanting the same thing and probably for the same reason : a nation mission. The market goes up and down : few weeks ago it was pretty dead, currently its manic and prices reflect that somewhat crazy demand ; for why, who knows : quite lame cards are going for silly money, very useful and deadly ones cant find a buyer ; example : duplicate cards going for more than 20cr is madness : 50% fail rate.. that's 40cr to duplicate a card (and you can still bomb out even with 2 tries) ; what card is worth that? , meanwhile Call Leviathans have dropped to 12 or so and still dont sell.

It wont last, the market will settle back (barring an all out port-war kicking off) and you'll start seeing cards failing to sell and prices dropping back : just have to be patient.

As for cancelling the mission : that's plain daft : you will lose all you have done so far on it and have to repeat all that again next time : it wont go away or expire, just leave it for a while and come back to it when you have gathered the cards needed. Nation missions aint supposed to be easy, else-wise, everyone would be a duke a week after they start : just chill, it will happen and then you'll wonder what all the fuss was about.

Currently, at time of writing, there are 6 entries for BD's on the market, 3 dont even have a bid on them yet...

tip : use the search function (top right of market listings) and you can see all offers for any specified card

and as for cornering the market at any price :

'Your auction of 4 Black Death voodoo cards has concluded. No buyers were interested for your deal and the cards have been returned to your inventory.'

and they were on offer for a lot less than 42cr

read the post : that set was on offer for 3 days in the last week for much less than 42 and it never sold... nobody bid on it. And that's the second set I offered last week that never sold. Currently in the market, there are 2 sets of 4 @ 20cr with no bids : another of 3 @ 12cr with no bids : dont think that any one set on offer is the only set on offer, use the search function and see if more are on offer. Each entry is a separate sale, the price of other lots does not affect them : you could have 2 identical lots side by side, one can sell at 99, the other at 9 : just depends if anyone bids on them or re-bids...

Well since i am getting hit upon a lot these days, last night people cast 3 FoJ 3 HN on me : I thank you to anybody that hit me, so i could sell all my traders :lol: :lol: :lol: Captain, it could be worse a person i gave a frigate to , attacked me with it? Is that a reason to quit??

* To Admin * Do not worry, this is not danger manipulation i never really asked anyone to attack me, some of them just did attack me, i figured hey they will not attack me again, so then i sold my ships that did not have danger on...
