Factory raids... [OLD from 2 years ago - Not happening now]

Recommended Posts

Simonix

Hi all. 

Some bad news. RWI thread below. GMF got raided yesterday, along with a TD on Reddit (is there such a thing?) and now all factories and even some TDs are having to lay low and not trade for a while. Apparently things are not good over there at the moment.

Many of the dealers trade openly in markets so leave themselves wide open for such action - I've seen a video of such a raid and they don't mess about.

It’s a dealer ploy to ramp up the prices

Shit happens. Dig in and wait, I suppose. It will all come back to life, eventually.

Unconstitutional.... this forum does a good job of capping profiteers... To be fair though, M2M prices are what they are anyway IMO, as long as not above original purchase price, they generally reflect good vfm. Good thing about RWG..

Fkn Hell... 

I guess it's hard to say whether how serious this is. 

I hope they will bounce back quickly.  After all, if a raid or two was able to finish the industry, we wouldn't be here.

This ! But RWI as well is a place where raids doesn't affect M2M pricing

Not more serious than the other raids happening for 15 years at least. It works both ways, people in the industry have to please people doing the raid, but people ordering the raids have other people to please too

I guess you are right.

I wonder if the VSF got raided too. After all with how they dominated the industry they must have quite a few internal (snitchy) enemies.

Thank fuck for that, this place would be a shithole for M2M if people were just ripping the piss with pricing, it's bad enough with the AP's that go on sale :D
