Dear all,
I understand the “supply & demand” concept.
I don’t understand how it applies to gems in Guild Wars 2;
Is not the supply of gems unlimited? i.e. Anet can ‘create’ as many as they like.
I just don’t get it—how the gold to gem ratio can change. Please help.
Sincerely.
The price changes pretty often, how would I have time to post on the forums?
As a quick aside. Gems in the currency exchange are finite. You may buy gems with real money to your hearts content, but if you don’t put any of them gems into the currency exchange the currency exchange’s stock of gems never changes.
Think of it this way. The government can print as much money as they want, that doesn’t mean your bank account has access to that money. The currency exchange does not have access to gem creation. It has a limited stock that players add and subtract from.
