They could just supply one shop username - that of their own.

This is indeed a probable way of scamming, but not very profitable and easily busted. Also when you ask for help many people may help you at the same time and you can choose to buy from the cheapest shop. Therefore this isn't a very major scam.


Well they can also add a few shops that have the prices even higher then theirs, so it would make their item look the cheapest.

I havn't seen it happen yet, but I guess i'm glad that PPT has a thread for faerie quest, because I can trust people around here.

-sigh- People go through long lengths just to get a 1k profit. I personally think they are :loser: lol :P

I've thought about those kinds of things with the quest board. Seems occsasionally people will give me items. I don't abuse their generosity though and try to finish the quest promtly after that. But I'm sure there are people who would not be as honest as me.

You know, sometimes people who help just give you the name of a hyper store thats like 4 times more expensive than the cheapest price. O.o I remember I asked for a book once, it was about 800 NPs, and it was about 3k in that shop.. O.o

Its better to use the PPT faerie quest boards. ;)
