So I was looking at item trades, specifically for vermillion, and saw that some were for millions, even billions, of silver coins.  What on earth happened?  Did something change?  Why is vermillion so expensive now?

Very high prices are a sign that someone is "storing" things on the item trades.

For example, you can only store 999 vermillion in your inventory, so people create a trade with the excess at 999999999 silver (the game can only go as high as 48795432 or something like that.)

It's a work-around.

How do people get that much vermillion in the first place?  Do they just . . . not use it?  I always burn through it about as fast as I get it because I have breeding projects.

Yeah, it's unfair.

I gather quite a bit over tundra but it gets used up so fast...

It's kind of depressing.  Like, here I am, actually playing the game and using up resources, and some of these people are hoarding thousands and thousands of vermillion.  And for what?  They're not using it or selling it.  People will pay good money for that stuff.  What's the point of having a stash that big?
