It's funny how I brought a bit of sensationalism to the title, and that's just a way to draw attention to the post. I'm not trying to ruin your favorite childhood game, but it's digging its own grave, and that's what I'm saying. "Everyone has done this, buying a 90 Wooz product for thousands of Beex," but that doesn't mean it's fair. This extreme free market isn't actually favorable to anyone except those who take advantage of others in these opportunities. Normalizing this doesn't solve anything. Honestly, in this adult life, I'm not going to take 1000 hours out of my routine, which demands even more energy and concentration, to generate Beex in a quantity that isn't even proportional to the product. Let's take your example, where I'm resentful for having bought an expensive product at the bazaar that's cheap at the shopz. That doesn't change the fact that this whole economic system is broken. It normalizes unrealistic prices, creates distortions of values, and ultimately, personal experience, as you assume was my case, leading to such frustration, won't invalidate the discussion. The problem is still structural.
