Price Comparison Shopping in MMORPG
Mike writes "Whether you love it, hate it or are unaware of it the MMORPG secondary market, which deals with the trade of in-game commodities for real world cash, is here and growing. Some researchers suggest that this secondary market is likely to exceed the primary market (which is created by off-the-shelf game purchases and subscriptions)in years to come. But with so many vendors how do you know who to buy from, or even who your options are? Eye On MOGS is a search-engine come comparison/availability tool for the MMORPG secondary market. It was created by gamers, for gamers and as such we are very sensitive to the needs of those players who use the secondary market and the concerns of those who oppose it. " Not meant to be an advertisement - but I think it's a very telling sign when even the secondary market for games can have its own price compare engine.

for a minute there, i lost myself...
Here's an instant cure for homelessness, joblessness, and poverty. Just set some bums up with EQ accounts and have them farm valuable objects all day long, sell them to other people, and they too can now become productive members of the real economy, will no longer need welfare, and will be generating taxable income.
You see? You see? Your stupid minds! Stupid! Stupid!
Before I shop for a good comparasion, I'll have to figure out what the hell one is.

Do not try to read the dupe, thats impossible. Instead, only try to realize the truth
What truth?
There is no dupe
With the way the American dollar has been trading against most international currencies over the past few years, I don't know why anyone would trade their hard-farmed gold for the monopoly money their employers are paying them.
I feel you. Working every day is dull. If I can manage to pull off a nice bank heist I can get on to more interesting fun parts of life. Hell, lets all do it!
Troller, this is yet another sub-0 score post you've put up. Why don't you go back to playing with your Tandy PCjr and let slashdot post whatever the fuck it wants, seeing as how you don't work here, have no say in what happens, and your input is about as valuable as a bottle of dirty water in new orleans.
Just because you visit this website doesn't mean it owes you jack fucking squat, and if a story ends up having sub-50 posts then THATS JUST HOW ITS GONNA BE YOU JEALOUS FUCK.
