That fee exists for a reason. It’s so that market traders won’t change their prices by .00000000001 ISK every five seconds in order to have the lowest price. ---

I’ve been wondering how many posts it would take you to ask ‘why’, but it seems you never ask why. You lack the curiosity that would help you understand games better. Only complaints and suggestions, never an attempt at understanding. Edit: looks like Quake already started explaining the why. ---

You must have missed out on the years of the .000000001 ISK trade wars. When CCP implemented the relisting fee and limited how many zeros you could put in front of it, the outcry from traders was probably heard in deepest regions of the known universe… ---

It’s a fee, not a sale. Fees are very rarely refundable. The broker did their job that you are paying them to do. ---
