Okay this is more along the question side but it's also kind of a rant. Why is it people feel the need to overprice OG Accounts (whether it's Gamertags, Handles or snapchat)?

I can understand certain accounts/names selling for so high like names, brands, slang etc but when it's something random like "Hinge" or "Curtain" still ask for stupid amounts?

Like c'mon if you had a choice between buying "Kill" or "Curtain" which one would you take..

Rant/over

Well, because they are rare maybe?

i do agree to an extent, though. I have seen a few GTs go for a crazy amount

From what I regularly see, people set a high bin to see how far they can get when speaking about the offers they may receive.

There are clearly some people who don't do their research or ask around to see how much their gamertags are actually worth so they put a price set by them, which leads to them being roasted by the community (especially in OGU) which leads them to lower their prices.

People will put a value that they believe their item is worth (this doesn't happen with just gamertags) because if they don't, they'll have people asking them what the price is.

Bruh, any gamertag is rare.

The tag market has gone up, and since then everyone feels the need to overprice their none "final worthy" gamertag. It's dumb.


But most of the time these days, kids just are looking for a easy flip.

I could careless about OG gamer tags. They're super stupid and pointless to me. Would rather have a tag that means something to me.

People who pay silly prices for tags are embarrassing. Use your money wisely on things that'll actually do you good in life. Oh wow you're called 'Curtain' - doesn't interest me in the slightest. Find it weird in all honesty.

I don't see why so many people are worried about how others spend their money. If someone wants to spend THEIR earned money on a gamertag, it's their choice.

People talk as if they've never made a frivolous or ridiculous purchase in their life.
