The Real Reason Coins Aren't in the market

Guest · Post by **Guest** » 24.12.2008, 01:20

Hey, ever wondered why the mods won't except selling coins on the market?
Either i'm stupid and every one knew this or i could be onto something..

theory one

Coins, No market. So you must advertise other ways.

.Fax
.Banner
.Show case

But they all cost real money.
So the fact that your spending real money to advertise something that costed you real money to buy is practicualy the best way to keep cash rolling

Theory 2
The price of coins with ingame money is alot compared to there real worth
out of game wise. The market is full of competitive freindly competition.
Every one always wants to be the cheapest.. so it will end so low to the price that the Computer buying price.

Hate my theorys? Hey [censored] you! :O
But anyway. Feel free to imbariss me with your words of wisdom.
Also i hope this stops all of the people asking for the coins to be in the market spam

I would say both theories are right. Kapilands isn't a game that was ment to generate no income.

Upjers has to be able to keep the game running.

Yeah but the coins arent going to sell at the system price they will forever keep increasing til one day you cant make money buying a premium and then the coins will stay the same price.

Offtopic but...

What do you think you will do at that point??
Sell the premium buildings or continue buying coins??

@ water bank.
Theorie 1 is BS.

You can read fax and showcase and send to those asking for coins without paying anything.
And otherwise the forum is available as a place to offer/request coins.

Theorie 2 is BS to.

The problem with coins is the lack of them!!!
Your theorie is based on them being available in large amounts, but they are rare.
Thats why the price is so high.
Also, current way of selling them doesn't differ from an ingame market that much.
In the forum people also try to make the most of their money while others try to get as many as possible for as little cash as possible.

Bottom line remains, the current price is a result of to few coins available rather then the way they can be sold.

Theres actually a lot of coins. If you want coins you can always get them, just don't be surprised to be paying billions.

What I think is that some wont relize it until its to late and they arent doing so hot and they have to end up selling a few of there 20K+ buildings.

I think the price will go up and down then settle and a pretty even rate with new players buying 100 coins and selling them 100k to 1 million dollars cheaper and they are quickly up in the spots to buy stuff.

When there are so many, why do they get so expensive?
That shows there aren't enough available.

Because only a certain amount of people have them or don't sell them. Theres tons of coins, just the price is dictated by a few individuals.

Alright.
So people don't sell them...

This means there are to few, otherwise they would sell and/or they would be less expensive.

You really think starting a special market section selling coins would make them less expensive???
Come on, you can't be serious about that!!!

You really think they would suddenly start selling those coins?????

Damn, someone really need some tutoring on economics

Have you ever heard of De Beers and limiting how many diamons are to be sold each year? In kapilands only a few people sell coins, they have unlimited amounts and are always buying more. They have no need to flood the market with coins and try and beat competition, since there isn't any. The people that do sell coins, sell them all for the same price and contantly up their prices together. People need coins and will pay whatever they have to. Just because price is high, doesn't mean there is little supply.

You really need to brush up on your economics.
