How do people buy items that cost more than 100b?

Can someone please explain, how it is possible?

  1. why the cap is not 99 trillion, but 100 billion? I saw on some resources that the gold cap is 99 trillion
  2. how do people, having 100 billion cap, buy items that cost more than 100b, cannot get it.

What do I miss, can you please explain.

Bots or duping created this waste pool of gold. From that original tainted source this gold through trade eventually trickled down to non-cheaters and ended in a relatively small percentage of “honest” players accruing a vast amounts by screwing over other people looking to trade for good items.
Either that or they just got to an RMT site and pay $10.

I dont think its legit to be honest. I was using diablo.trade and i think some of the listings are just trolls. Most items ive actually traded sold from 300m to 2b.

high levels of ladder play must be an exercise in masochism

Same here. Sold many more for 150m.

And those small and medium trades are staggering very fast. It is no problem to make 5 billion per day. Everybody can do it. No science.

A bit more in-depth it is to find good objects to flip.
I do not like that. But it would be easy to make 100b per week with that.
