These prices are rediculous. You can buy much better armor with stats and all from players at a much lower price. C'mon verant. Let this armor be accessible to lvls around 20. Theres a LOT of better armor out there for half the price of this.

I agree. This is one reason why the economy is so screwed up in EQ. Do you know of ANYONE who would actually buy this armour? Bah!
Player-made items should be the best available, with looted items being next best, and store-bought items being the last -- and most available, thus cheapest.
The price on this item flies in the face of the law of supply and demand. The supply is high, the demand is low, therefore the price should be low, yet it is too high for anyone in their right mind to consider.

It is all because Verant wants to make people buy and sell from each other not with vendors. Thus the idea behind why tradeskills products don't sell for more than it costs to make them (very few exceptions). Also why very few dropped items sell for anything to vendors.

Why is this so expensive? It has the same AC as bronze yet at vendors is cost astronomical amounts of plat! Why?
It's expensive because buying from a vendor is the easy way out--you don't have to hunt or practice trade skills or search for other players. Since buying from a vendor takes almost no effort, the prices were made high to discourage people from taking that route. At least that's my impression.
Of course they may have gone a bit overboard here...even at half the current price I doubt more people would start using it. Keep in mind though that fine plate didn't exist at the time that steel armor was created, possibly not even the class armor quests, so at the time the prices weren't _quite_ as ridiculous because armor better than this was harder to get.
