This thread is rather lame on both sides at present moment. Would suit people if they tried debating instead of contradictions..
The system is maybe working as intended and for many of the reason mentioned, it does not change the fact that it creates some rather annoying effects.
One of them is the "free profit" which is really not something to complain about imho..
The real problem is the ****ed up price equilibrium and moving avg and statestics side of it..
It would be partly solved if CCP would make the filtering option impact the visible and interactable orders.
Thus the freak prices would not show if I filtered them out by disregarding all prices outside say 500% range.
The same added feature would make the low sec embargo feature possible and help in better price developments.
There are still quite a lot of features in EVE that might make sense in an ad hoc manner only, and could be higly improved and rebalanced.
Inexhaustible npc tradegoods.. WRONG Exhaustible mining ressources(roids) WRONG Skill limit to number of orders WRONG
All these problems together is counter to logic.
Sure you can adapt to these errors in judgement from ccp, and grow used to them, but they are still inherently wrong and should in time get fixed and replaced with something better.
The pragmatic nature is strong in EVE players so bringing them up will often be seen as a trolling, because it changes the game more then players can accept, even though it will be an improvement to gameplay..

I am not complaining about getting some extra profit as I simply keep it and only return the sums that stand out. For the rest of your comment are you taking the thread off its topic. The market does have filtering options and my complaint is not about not being able to pay for an item. ...STUFF
Well consider myself trolled.
If you read my post instead of once more explaining your POV, as if I didnt catch it the first time around, is rather meh..
It sounds as if your failing to understand why these weird prices are actually still showing up...
Since as explained it is not the direct benefits of the price setter, then ofc there must be a secondary agenda. Among these are of the fact that you can aim to have lowest price all the time, this is not that likely, then second you have the manipulation of market avg, market visibility and competitions price setting. If you read my post this was what I was refering to and supporting your complain about this "feature"..
The other mentioned examples was to show you that there are quite a few other game features that are added to the game with good intention but lousy effects..
On the filtering either you didnt read properly or you missed the point that its a filter only on your visible side, its not possible to get graphs and tables without the weird outlying prices, and you do risk buying from or selling to orders you can not see.. Hence not a function related filter..
The "graph griefing" prices and self concluded trades, to manipulate information and visibility is a LONG LASTING problem, that to few care about to get ccp to even look in to this issue.. (I believe I brought it up first back in 2004)
