Bids over 1750 ectos
Lawliet Kira
When people bid like 4000e, as seen in the high end thread..how would they trade that? Through multiple trades?? Would you really trust someone with taht
sykoone
More than likely by using armbraces or some other high value item.
fenix
Yeah, probably by buying armbraces with all the ecto over 1500 (1500+armbraces in the trade window)
Kikuta
Armbraces. Bidder has to buy them for the trade.
Neo Nugget
That, or they are making fake bids.

yep. each ambrace = roughly 30e (or 100k+10e).
soooo...
an item that costs 2500e would be *does math*:
1500e+33.333333(infinite) ambraces (or just most likely a flat 1500e+33a xD

Btw, this question has been asked several times.

IDd 1750e is alot of cash cus i never had more then 200e ^^ i allways spent everything..

"alot" is a subjective term, so arguing what is alot and what isn't is kinda stupid.
take_me
I guess they'd have to trust each other or maybe use some High End minis which are traded back and forth in exchange for the Ectos, or simply use Armbraces as some already said.

i'm a elite armour junkie, i just cant stop buying them

You can trade armbraces, but there are other ways, too 
When I sold mah beetle for 3500e last October that was the way we did it:
Buyer gives 750ecto up front.
Buyer gives 1500ecto+Vizu - Seller gives Mini Beetle
Buyer gives 1250ecto - Seller gives Mini Vizu
There are different ways, it depends on what the seller/buyer prefers

When anything in a game costs so much, it can't be good for the games economy and it's a 100% sign therefore, that the game's economy is terribly extreme broken and that is "not okay" >.>
Nothing in the game should cost more than 100 Platin imo, then we could speak of an good economy and not of a game, where when you first look at its market - comes into your mind only the word Money Inflation, where the ingame money has the worth of toilet paper -.-

Seriously: a game intended to give an all-round experience to casual players are bound to make people who play it for 10-12 hours a day obscenely rich. If those people then invest the money in rare stuff, selling those for yet more money their earnings go off the charts.
It is just like real life actually, people go to work for 8 hours a day and spend every dime on food, rent, etc. never getting ahead in all their life. If another man is bright, works for 16 hours a day and then invest the money smartly he becomes a very rich man.
No mystery, nothing broken - just life! And like in real life, the has-nots whine about the rich people!

In reality many of those "rich buggers" should not be envied but pitied - they work all their life, never taking time to savor anything and in the end they can't take their wealth with them.

Since most people don't have anything like that, it's "a lot". You can make it relative to something else, but I don't think you can make it relative to something more relevant.

The other way for high end trades is through a broker. People who are known and act as a go between for the two parties.
I Is Special
I always thought those trades were done through Forum Moderators.
1 gives all their ectos to the moderator, the other gives the moderator the item being bought, then the moderator gives the items to the correct person.
