Agreed, definitely.  You either need to fully use the AS (AucZILLA
Standard), or scrap it.  It used to be that it was very useful.  These days,
with some pieces going for absolutely ludicrous prices, I can't comfortably
use the AS anymore, as sometimes a piece I have is valued WAY too high, or a
piece the other person has is.

Of course, the AS "standard" isn't a standard, in that it would probably
take a good 20-30 auctions to average out the insanity we are seeing more
and more.

items right now.. It seems there are some traders that feel they should
get the Auczilla (1) auction price for their trades yet don't believe in
paying the same prices for what's being traded.. If you want to go by
those standards... remember it goes both ways.. if you want to demand
top dollar, be prepared to pay top dollar for what you're trading.

Well the AS (AucZILLA Standard) gets a little skewed on occasion. I, myself am a good reason why. I've been on a buying spree lately, and wasn't going to participate in Auczilla X, except for the fact that I had a balance from previous Auczilla's. (...) (26 years ago, 25-May-99, to lugnet.general)
