Is this widespread, or is my server just special? There are several people buying the vendor sold tradeskill books the same level as the rare dropped ones and putting them up for sale on the broker system for 1 gold or more.
The obvious intent is for people to buy the vendor book thinking it's the rare. I almost got caught by it the first time, since the book IS super rare and I've only seen it on the broker once. Luckily I paused before buying it to make sure it had the adept 3 spell I wanted to scribe and when I examined realized it was the wrong book.
By the way, the GM answer when you report this as attempted fraud is the typical SOE line, "We can't take action against someone for setting a high price on a common item."
