If you set a super-high price and you are able to sell out your stock, then the price is not too high. Unlike real life, with: food, clothing, rent, etc; there is nothing in Mabinogi that you MUST buy; there are no needs just wants. Those folks setting those high prices for highly desirable items are selling them; they have customers. Don't blame the sellers, blame the buyers. How many folks in this game are willing to not buy something because it is too expensive even though they could. The issue here is that buyers can't control their desires; if buyers could the markets would lower.
In real life there are different social classes based on income, so too it is in Mabinogi. The folks buying gatcha and selling the items they don't want, or the folks that buy, say, reforges, from the web-shop, to sell, are the whales that are paying to keep Mabinogi itself a going concern. Their reward for paying to keep Mabinogi alive is that they get the key-FOB to the games patrician class. So we have two markets in the game: that which most of us CAN participate in, and that which we CAN'T. I'd like a Lamborghini but I can't afford one, that's just how it goes.
I use the free edition of SUPERAntiSpyware and do a full scan everyday which takes about a hour for my computer: https://www.superantispyware.com/
all my passwords are in Japanese and have never been hacked yet. I also refuse to list any credit card information on any site except for maybe twice in the past 10 years on Amazon. lie about your date of birth whenever a site asks. staying safe is fairly easy as long as you are careful and have a good antivirus. I never login to any site on my phone, not even my email. if I need to go to a website full of spyware and ads like for anime for example I use a crappy laptop with zero personal info on so I don't have to put my main pc or personal data at risk.
