In a world where all the big bois are allied who else are you going to siege but a humble fisherman who is living on an island with his wife.
Apparently some rando who lives next to them when you lose your axe you priced for 50 Bux on the market place.
Holy shit this thread was good. Yeah, he came out profiting from that, even today if you check the markets a 400Q axe is on the upper end of what people are selling for, though it's been long enough it got a lot cheaper.
Realistically he ported everything of any time value away before they got to him, all he lost was build mats for the stuff on the island. It's kinda sad actually, that whole discussion on the axe being meaningless in value and the P2W aspects being ignored just goes to show that snail is a consistent clown on these arguments.
The real mistake here was that they risked anything in the first place when they could have just not been afk with gear of any value. It's almost their own fault they got robbed, but eh, can't blame the victim for being robbed after all, it was Coles who decided to grope them.
