    New to the server, new to the forum, so if I'm placing this on the wrong place, well sorry. Please move it if thats the case.

    Anyway, was on the server, minding my business, opened market and saw a tinkers bag with 27/27slots filled.
    On the name tag was written 27 stacks of concentraded essence, but since it was a tinkers bag, could not be seen if true. Talked to people on the server and they agreed it was probably a scam attempt. Here is a screenshot of the market with the player tag. If that was a legit offer, then I'll apologize to the player.


    PS: Ignore the video on right

    Looked into this further and bought one off the market and can confirm it is 27 stacks of essence berries. [​IMG]

    I've been logging into DW and monitoring the market there as there was a ticket from bcreative on an issue of the dolly's. I could not pinpoint who the seller was and without that information there isn't anything we can do. Its nice to see that the bag wasn't a scam as well. That may rule out that player as the scammer.

    Will keep a closer eye.

    There was also a suggestion passed around. . .if you're unsure of the contents of something that is listed on the market see if that player is around or shoot 'em a /mail send and ask if you can do a trade in person etc. It's a good way of not getting scammed or just knowing what you're buying.
