I don't play SRO, I have no idea which servers have higher supply or demand - or the prices for gold. What I was talking about, is how:

As demand drops, prices do not go down. If there is low demand, there is going to be high prices. Period.

Yes it does. Read my example. Are you going to buy 100m gold for $1 or are you going to buy it for $100? This is quantity demanded, keep in mind.

Dom's right. With high demand it means that you can sell for ridiculous prices, with low demand you're lucky if you can find anyone who wants to buy it therefore prices are lowered. uBeR needs to take an Economics class...

Supply and demand is perhaps one of the most fundamental concepts of economics and it is the backbone of a market economy.

lol, everyone needs to do a little research.

For tonite, your homework will be searching for the price/demand relationship on google.

Turn in your homework to me before class starts. If you turn it in late you will be banned from srf for not doing your homework. :D

Sorry from what i have learned (and still do) scarce goods can be sold at higher prices due to demand > supply. Prices will continue to rise untill demand declines and demand = supply.
If demand is low business will lower its prices to sell its goods. Again, untill demand rises (because of lower prices) and demand = supply. Note: this is the theoretical perfect market model which doesn't work 100% in reality.

An illustration.

Image

The opposite, what uBeR and co say, doesnt' make sense.
Demand is high, prices will lower? Think of it.
Same way the other way around: demand is low, prices will rise? Ofcourse not.

The only reason i can see for goldcompanies to lower their prices while demand > supply, is market penetration, which i doubt, because #1 objective of short existing goldcompanies is to make as much as profit as possible.

Oh F-22, same goes for you i guess.

A. The Law of Demand
The law of demand states that, if all other factors remain equal, the higher the price of a good, the less people will demand that good. In other words, the higher the price, the lower the quantity demanded. The amount of a good that buyers purchase at a higher price is less because as the price of a good goes up, so does the opportunity cost of buying that good. As a result, people will naturally avoid buying a product that will force them to forgo the consumption of something else they value more. The chart below shows that the curve is a downward slope.

Like I said earlier, it's important to distinguish from a change in quantity demanded and an actual shift in the demand curve.

Mercury 2.48$ per 10m 200m Stock
Venus 3.29$ per 10m 300m stock
Xian 4.29$ per 10m just sold their last stock of 400m(one person<<<omg)

Taken from one of the popular gold sellers. That info right there tells me that the most gold out of the three servers is bought in mercury. You dont have to know economics to figure that out. Took awhile cause i had to do it over the phone. But that is also the trend with other sites as well. Mercury is in the lower priced end, venus in the middle, Xian closer to the higher priced.

@death: idk if your info is correct (i don't even understand why they share this information, you should say it's company classified info) but then again silkroad illegal gold market isn't an ordinary market.

That is a tiny, tiny gold company if all they have in stock is 200M. I have more than 200M myself.

it's no use man.

these guys really think they know everything the best.

'insulting' their server is like stabbing them with a knife in real life.

Omg ok, just got out of chat with 2 other managers if 2 different companies. TPL, the most popular out of all servers....
Xian 2b in stock / 3.74$ per 10m
Venus 300m in stock / 2.35$ per 10m

So ya, seems the trend of gold sellers is lower price=less stock=high demand.... Higher price=more stock=low demand

There ya go night.. from the biggest gold seller, cant argue with that.

Edit, I like this discussion as well.

lol yeah ok buddy. the biggest gold seller has 300m in stock. thats why i got 600m in the fortress for 2 weeks only. who did that gold come from? 20% of all gold bots in jangan only.

the biggest gold seller would have much more then 300m.

don't take things too seriously.

it doesn't necessarily has to be negative.

Fly, it means they are constantly running out as fast as the gold comes in. Anyone here can see that looking at the numbers. It means Xian has less buyers, and venus has more, thats all. What you just said proves that venus has some of the biggest gold buying population. You said your 600m showed there were many gold bots. Its sad that Venusians buy so much that TPL cant even keep up with gold stock..:)

you know what the funniest part is?

It doesn't matter a sh!t which server has the most legits and which server has the most goldbots.

as long as you guys are legit and don't buy gold :wink:

you cant sit there and assume that Fly. Or is it your belief that anyone not in a guild is a gold bot?gold bots are not the issue here. What is at hand is Venus buys more,and Xian buys less. Making Venus prices cheaper and xians prices more expensive.

Prophet, the numbers I provided are straight from TPL(the biggest gold seller in sro)

Yes it does. Read my example. Are you going to buy 100m gold for $1 or are you going to buy it for $100? This is quantity demanded, keep in mind.



I'm not talking about SRO, reread what I wrote. I'm talking about pure economic theory.

The idea that prices will rise even with a demand drop is absurd. Look at the aggregate demand curve, it will slide down the aggregate supply curve and result in lower prices. The reason i'm only talking about theory and not practice, is because of:

Lol some people do not know simply economics.


I couldn't care less about the gold industry in a cheap korean game.



And just to add to the thread: i'm pretty sure the same prices aren't caused by demand, but rather supply. It only makes sense that on a server with less goldbuyers, they don't farm as much gold and sell it for the same price. Why would they waste resources on a server that buys less gold, when they can tack it onto a more profitable server.
