It is not greed, if supply is low and demand is high, they prices rise. If you dont want to pay the high prices wait for other to pay those high prices and when demand drops so will prices.
Problem is, people think they have the right to buy things the very first day they become available and those prices should be what they think is right. problem is, there are thousand of other people out there wanting to buy the same things. So we should have a poll and the person who wants to pay the lowest amount sets the price?
Those people who bought the swoops for 500K could affort it, those who paid 15K waited. One person got the swoop the first week and was happy, they other got the swoop in the first month and was happy. Some wanted to pay 15K the first day and they are the unhappy ones.

I sold for 10k to 15k on day 1

There were exceptions but in general could be a less effective idea. Those who charged what the market could bear ended up with a whole lot more credits. Thus they have more capital to invest in harvesters, purchasing rare spawns, hiring people to gather materials, and thus probably be more successful in the long run.

Once the price dropped to around 10-15K, they alter their price structure and are charging the same but now have more credits. You might make up for it by having a loyal customer base, they will be able to create better items, more items, and gain loyal customers as well. In general, they will also be able to keep their vendors stocked more often due to their accumulated capital.

My only point, is neither way is wrong or greedy. They both have their benefits.

They should introduce a tax system.
