For the bowmen: Has the bandwagon affected you?

Everything's become so expensive, and I'm constantly tired of people asking about what attack/stats equipment I have like it's so important these days. I scrolled my crossbow before dark scrolls were even out and back then I thought it was decent, and now I see insanely scrolled weapons and funded characters all over the place complaining that their godly stuff is ass. I would've killed for that stuff before 4th job, or even before 3rd.

And don't get me started on Sharp Eyes 20... I've spent a good few levels hunting for it with no luck, and I even tried saving for it. As soon as I reached the amount for the average priced SE20, it almost doubled in price! I think I give up trying to buy anything in the bandwagoned market, although I'm grateful for the drop in price of Marksman Boost 30s. That's about it though.
