Why did the price of Guild Sigils go up?

really, from 11K to 29K
??????

Becuase Anet love pvper and give them all the cash and have pvers and take all there cash away -_-

Because Europe is hogging the favor even more lately, and, IIRC, all territories have their own economy so America is getting low on them.

I thought that the traders were all linked to prevent people buying from the cheaper one and selling to a more expensive one in another region.

They are.
He is talking about something that he knows nothing about but decided to share his wisdom anyway.

The price of sigils is determined by supply and demand. Either supply has gone down, demand has gone up, or a combination of both.

Maybe all the guilds abusing jade and the other broken maps have decided to change their guildhalls ,because they wont be allowed in AT?

lower drop from ha so price increase

I'm not certain, but the celestial torunament might have had something to do with this as well. In each round teams would select maps which they believed would give them an advantage given a particular build, and as such there was a lot of hall switching going on which requires sigils. I know we switched halls a number of times for this reason. I also noticed the spike in price at this time when i went out to buy them. ouch.

In my opinion this is the main reason they went up.
Demand on them went up.

The way I understand it is that it works just like the rune and scroll traders - As more people buy them, the higher they go. Has the sigil trader ever sold out?

Don't you hate it when people are full of it and not know it?

1. It's a world economy.
2. There's only one Halls match at a time, match abuse/exploits don't change that.

I'm not sure who or what you are referring to with this. But...

Yes there is only one halls match at a time, but its been this way for ever as long as sigils have been cheap. So there has to be some reason for the spike.

The Celestial tournament (GvG) occured. There were 8 rounds with 300 guilds rougly in each round (though the number dipped a bit after that). Each round teams swapping halls to some extent in their best 2/3 in order gain every advantage they could given their build. This means a lot of sigil buying. The spike in prices happened to correspond exactly with the celestial tournament. This is certainly a possible factor.

Sigil prices spiked when the time between halls matches increased and the fact that you have an equal chance of getting a sigil to a flame of balt now.

The CT and other factors of course played their part.

Sorry? they went up?

I still rememner buying one way back when they were over 90K from the trader and i managed to talk a nice HA'er into selling me theres for only 60K to buy my first guild hall
