That's the strange part. It's like there's no middle ground. In the trading channels, people laugh at anything less than 'uber' uniques, but in a game people grab at Cathan's Mesh like junkies in a smack factory. Somehow the idea of trading low-level items for OTHER low-level items never seems to occur to anyone on the realms.

Also, whatever strange thinking goes into people's evaluation of items isn't transitive. For instance, at one time 40 chipped ~ 1 SOJ. But when I tried to trade chips for 5k gold, or normal gems, I'd get no takers. However, I'm sure that if I offered to sell SoJs for (40x5k) 200k gold, they'd go like hotcakes. It just doesn't add up. (example as of a few months ago, before the latest round of duping reduced SoJ's to something approximating reichmarks in the late 1920's.)
