Unfortunately your idea will not work.
The market works like this.
The lowest selling price wins the highest bid above price. So the person selling Brass for 1.99 Billion would win before you.

I understand that.
That's why I called it the 'last' brass. It'll be the last Brass anyone buys from the market before (temporarily) clearing out the market's supply.
I'm pretty sure the one I put up for 20 million went last, but because I don't know when it sold, I'm not 100% sure.
This time, I'll be sure.
Unless some other person decides to put one out there for 2B.
Which, now that I think about it, might be a project for the 88s. Post as many salvage as they can to the market, each priced at 2 billion. It'll take 100 million / piece posted out of the game, 200 if some poor fool actually buys any of them.
Seems like somebody did this once with Luck Charms, but I'm not sure. Luck Charm mania was a while back.

I was the guy who listed 10 Luck Charms at 2 billion each to finish off my "burn 10 billion inf" project, back when we all thought that was a lot of money. Sadly, I got my inf back when they merged the markets and I had to burn it some other way.
Edited to note: "We all" may not include all of us.

So you think you're a hero, huh.
@Boltcutter in game.
I sold a piece of Brass salvage recently for 20 million.
I don't know when exactly, as it was on a character I hadn't checked into for nearly 3 months- but sometime since Thanksgiving.
I understand the market ebbs and flows, but really, someone must have wanted that one bad.
It's not like this was a random bonanza where I dropped a brass for 1 inf and lucked into someone's multiple-zero typo bid.
I was playing in the Brass niche last winter before other folks caught up. Before I bailed out, I deliberately put one up at 20 million, just to see if it would ever sell. It was kind of like hiding an easter egg.
Well, it took a while, but it did. It's true- you can't overestimate the public's willingness to buy under the right conditions.
So I've moved my goalposts.
The last Brass in the market is now on sale for 2 Billion.
Have at it, folks. I will happily report in again when it sells.
