Noobs on the way?

Hi guys,
I have to ask you something cause I want to know if its just a single problem.
In the last few days I watched the market and what I noticed are the noobs who pming yiou after a shout or something similar.
Example:
I shout "WTS LVL24+5 SoS Bow with nice stats for 9mil" (Stats can be seen here:
http://www.silkroadforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=34789 )
Then I got some very "funny" answers like "LOL are you stupid, the worth is not more than 4mil" or something turkish which I didnt understand.
Is this the same on every server or this something special on Alexander?

yea theyre stupid.
i had an sos spear lvl 32+4 and no one that i shouted to in the city would pay more than 10mil for it.
i finally stalled it as a joke for 19mil and it was gone in about 2 hrs (i went out to eat and came back to check it had been bot).
just be confident, and know your weapon costs as much as it does. A lot of people dont have much gold in SRO, but those who do go all out and buy your stuff, especially if its pretty

Thats probably the only way to sell an item for the price I want to sell it.
But it is really annoying when you get a lot of such whispers -.-
@Uriko
little bit hard, but true
@jleyens
The "turkish" has nothing to do with the normal level

God yes. Soo many shoutouts recently of people "WTB wind2, wind4 elements", which are worth 2k each. So I say, "how many", they answer back with like "110". Ok, I tell them the price is 220k, and they say "OMFG no way. I don't have that much. 500 gold each element tops, noob" ??? This has happened the last 5 times I've responded to such shoutouts. Or, I have an SOS LVL 24 Shield +5 block 17 int/str/durability stalled for 10m, which I KNOW it isn't worth, so I put in the message line "Leave an offer". Then I come back in an hour or two and I have crap like "10m lolol you noob!" and that is it. WTF, can't they read?
BTW, if anyone COULD tell me what the fair price for that shield would be I'd appreciate it. I think it is around 5-7mil. Sorry for the possible thread derail.

Don't be surprised if something happens to you if you continue to post it.

I only said they whispered me in turkish
Whatever, the main point are the noobs who dont know the real worth of items.

wow stallowned i dont think you thought your edit through very well TBH. firstly i quoted a word from OP post. nothing wrong with that. I stated its a key word. nuthing wrong with that. and do you think that what i said isracist.... tell me something. how is me pointing out that they are the reason behind his problem being racist. i didnt say they actually do anything or didnt even state anything. so why did u erase and make a comment for me just puting that word there when the op also put that word there. huh?

no. because i didnt say that. i said that they were a key word in what the op said himself. so why did op not get edited.

all he said was he dosnt understand turkish, you highlighted the word as a keyword (when it wasnt) hence implying its mostly them.
EDIT: ok, no more replys on that topic from me, this topic is going to end up locked otherwise

Yeah, of course, the noob-pm-prices went from 1 to 1.5mil
I opened a stall now and wait over night.
gn8 from switzerland
PS: After opening the stall I was afk for 10! minutes and had 3 messages like "too much, pay you 4mil for it" inside the box ...
