I guess I lucked out then. I found my second set of ilbis ever about a week and a half ago and managed to sell them for 12 mil. Nothing like the 43 Mil of yesteryear, but still sounds better than things have gotten recently.
More on topic, unfortunately there is not much we can do about hackers. As some have said, this helps some people interested in buying cheap things, for others, it hurts the merchants. However that isn't entirely true. It's just a buyer's market. Buy while you can now if you are a merchant who doesn't really care about ethics (which would be most to my knowledge) and sell them later when the hacks are killed off (for at least a few days anyway). All else fails; save them up until the next new world comes out on a mule and world transfer over, change them into mesos and in turn to rare/expensive items then send them back your way or make some NX in the MTS.
Of course, I can't even afford a basic FM permit right now, so what do I know about merchanting and the MTS.
