But doing that would likely have other people buy it and snatch it up beforet hey could have it, unless they try charging more for it but they'd end up losing more out on the deal still.
For someone willing to server change a mule full of Mastery Books (usually from new servers to Scania) to make a profit, the extra 40 cents on item transfers to securely move them through Auction/Wanted is gonna be microscopic. You can transfer items worth upwards of 2 billion mesos, and it all costs the minimum amount of taxes (101 NX previously, now it'll be 501 or something?)
This won't affect any merchant who regularly buys and sells items worth more than 15k NX - only the people who do more reasonable, small transactions. Which honestly is the majority of people who use the MTS... I guess this'll be successful in reducing the load on it. Earning NX 110 at a time was already going for a big loss (50% of the purchase price in taxes), now it'll be almost entirely pointless to sell cheap items in MTS.
