Jed, are those the Last prices or the Buy prices? Because I think a lot of people have jacked up the Buy prices. For example, take a look at Knight of Celador, it has a Buy price of 830g but a Last price of 420g and Sell price of 153g. I could swear that a few days ago the Buy/Sell/Last prices were something like 260/220/153 too because I wrote a lot of them down, although I guess I could have written that one down incorrectly. I surely don't remember seeing a Buy price of 830g.

It would actually be really nice to see the Average Last 5 actual sale prices in the market on cards if possible. As newbies, it is impossible for many of us to know the value of a card. Since there aren't a lot of transactions and there's oftentimes a huge gap between the buy and sell price, I'm really at the other persons mercy when it comes to trades. When there's a large gap between Buy, Sell, and Last, the only value I semi-trust is the Last price because that's the only one that is an actual sale. The only reason I say semi-trust is because it only shows the last 1 sold.

For example, if the last 5 Claimed With Blood's that actually sold on the market went for 320, 280, 310, 290, 400, an average price of the last 5 sales would give me much better insight into the value of the card than just looking at the last sale. The previous sale could have been an outlier.

ok fine one more post...
Yeah this is last price the other 2 don't mean much.
I'll probably expose the market history of each card soon.

I'm sorry, that data isn't entirely true. The offers aren't real. They're not backed by gold, so a lot are fake. Like there was an offer for caravan for 75...

I tried to sell, it didn't sell, the next offer was at 74. I tried to sell again. It didn't sell. Then the next offer was 29. The offers are fake. Same thing happened with greck eggs.

And the last sold price isn't reliable either. Someone can always use two accounts to make a highest offer on a card and then sell it from the other account, thus making it look like it sold high.

The only way the offers would be reliable is if: only the offers by people with gold to back the offers are shown.

Coder: to post the offer, you have to have enough gold. However as time goes you can sell that gold, trade it, buy another cards .. and the original offer is still there - until someone tries to sell his card. So at some time the person was really ready to pay that gold for the card - and probably still is, as he didn't remove the offer.. he just doesn't have enough gold.. And it's the best way, believe me =)

but yes, market needs lot of changes .. I'm sure there are many posts (I created one myself some time ago) around with the suggestions.

And so, my league thread has turned into a market debate...
