Virtually unobtainable prices instituted by a cult-like band of elite players whom owned all of said weapons. All the other prices followed in scalar by means of their comparison [stat wise] to those weapons.
So just because they WERE the biggest and baddest guns by far before these new ones were introduced? And the people that first had them put a price up high and now don't want to get rid of them because they either paid a lot for them or they're just plain greedy? Seems Legit. Still need a way to get rid of all those fucking Mp5s Well, to be honest. The reason why most people won't get rid of them or value them so much is because guys like me made them look god-like in their original form and still hold them to high standards. Honestly, guns like the Souizen are pretty comparable to the Mp5 Navy in both statistics and "feel", lol. The only difference comes in preference (spread or no spread), mayo or ketchup, mcdonalds or burger king.
However, public regard plays, and has always played, a huge role in off-market weapon pricing on Era. So if I run around with an Mp7 for a month or two, its public regard (more people will consider it better and be attracted to it) will increase. However, since its in a shop, its price will be unaffected. This same effect exists/has existed with other guns, however... they're not in shops... so price is, in these cases, affected.
Lastly, in pertinence to certain guns like Sable and etc..., these guns just look and feel like cheap imitations or failed competitors of their predecessors. Their statistics look "thrown on", so even when I try to develop a liking to one... I always find it doesn't respond the way I want it to and it annoys me.
The Mp7 is an exception to this though, it feels like a whole new item... I must say. I hate the spread with a burning passion, but the "feel" of the item is superb. Of course they're not going to feel exactly like you want them to. You had the opportunity to make guns exactly to your liking, so you know exactly what your preference is. Obviously something Fiber made isn't going to feel perfect to you XD Well, if I adjusted every gun to my liking, they'd all have no spread (honestly). I don't and didn't do that... there are gang guns not suited to me, but I am able to pk in any manner I choose, like whoever I choose... so I simply design guns based on a wide-array of PK styles. Hence why you have a wide array of weapons. My bid with the "feel" doesn't have to deal with it being suited with my personal pk-style preference, just that those weapon stats feel "thrown on" and tacky. They don't respond how I tier 3 weapons should, other than the Mp7. In short, I'd prefer an M4 over most. |

| u gave a list of specific pawn prices of 20 guns or so on these forums and all those prices were greater than the original prices. then u finally realised that the opposite needed to be done and told us again on these forums (no specific prices this time) but i'm pretty sure u've changed ur mind several more times since u last updated us |

| Actually, it's released now, and the prices are based on a script now. So I guess you could say, no one made the prices. |

I think you have to have the cash on you for that to show up. |

| lol@aug dropped by like 2/3.
The only problem is how much the P2k costs in singular, to get duals would cost more than to get a mp5 or aug. |

| You should make Dual P2Ks a single item (like ivory berettas) And anyone who has a single P2K should just get cash for it. |

And anyone who has a single P2K should just get cash for it. Or given another p2k since it was won in raffle anyway. Seems fair. |
