Box of Corn

[Jaigan]

Have a Box of Corn Kernels for sale.

[Krell Himmler]

How much?

6 corn per egg roughly as I understand it and the price of eggs is usually 3000 per box, so I will offer you 500.

[Hellblazer]

its 4 corn per eggs

[scifibarbie]

or 2 corn meals per egg which also equal 4 kernals

[Falonthas]

box of corn runs 2000 true when i gathered it since its not like cotton without any danger, but times may have changed the growing time and harvest times

and of course mine was druid sealed to not overburden any farmer  or their crop in general

[Hellblazer]

its actually a bit higher than that nowadays, 2500 to 3000 from the search.

[Krell Himmler]

It's 6 corn kernals per egg, or 2 corn meal, otherwise meal would be pointless, I tested this already.

I don't see how you justify 2000 True per box of corn makes sense, compared to 3000 for a box of egg.

Two things, anonymous author who seeks to impose prices on a sellers' market.

First, corn is more versatile than eggs.  More can be done with this foodstuff than grinding it to meal to feed to poultry.  The reduction in value from corn to eggs reflects this loss of flexibility.

Second, as I said, it is a sellers' market for corn at the moment.  You can make whatever suggestions you wish as to an appropriate price - but you can't demand that a seller sell for less than they wish to - and, as you've already discovered, you may earn the ire of those well-meaning individuals who seek to protect innocents from those out to take advantage.

Best of luck to you in future endeavours.

If you don't wish to pay the going rate, you can always go harvest your own corn!

 *laughs at the message about druid sealed, wondering what farmer plants corn to look at and not be harvested and leaves.*

Indeed I cannot force a price. Due to market forces, there may be a few individuals who will be willing to pay such a price, however in the interests of social welfare, and those of us in a lower group, I try to advise many to lower the price, this is to ensure that all may have a chance to recieve a fair and equal share of the corn, eggs and corn oil, in preferance to only the rich few recieving corn, eggs and corn oil, as is currently the case.

It is with a combined thought of market forces and social welfare of the people of Layonara that this individual attempts to stop the price fixing and enter things into some sort of competitive equilibrium, in which all things are valued at a price people are willing to pay, and not a price fixed by the more powerful of us, the merchants who are established and wish to see no loss in profit.

And indeed I do harvest my own corn, to a very sucessful rate, however when I offer to buy boxes, I do it to lend a hand to others, as many refuse to buy corn for the current rate it is being sold at and it otherwise simply sits idle.

 Send me a bird and I'll meet you in the place you list. 1500 is a good price for a box of corn.

*he comes in and checks the messages after laughing at a few ones he comes back to the one that is false*

don't confuse corn meals with corn flour. the chickens do not eat the corn flours. Corn meals takes 2 corn kernel, and it takes to corn meals to get an egg, hence 4 corn kernels.
