Weapon Trading System!

ALLAHDABEST

Since there are tons of suggestions about Trading weapons I decided to make a thread on it...
It will never happen. Here is why!

Situation 1 (Trade Allowed): Guy 1: I won OP M14EBR in 30 crates (For simplicity 30K zp)! 1 year later he realizes how boring the gun is. Now he wants to buy M4 Patriot another OP gun instead and decides to sell his M14EBR for 50K zp (higher price than bought since he understands the high demand for this gun by Asian try-hards [no racism, I'm Asian].

Guy 2 (Asian Try-hard): Guy 2 always wanted M14EBR. He was going to buy 60K zp for M14EBR crates. However he realizes that he can buy this gun from the trading system for just 50K zp so he buys it from there instead [*Notice how Guy 2 ONLY buys from Guy 1 since he thinks he can SAVE money - The expected value that he has to spend on crates is that high].

Guy 1: This guy now has 50K zp from Guy 2 that he can spend on M4 Patriot (He would bought 50K zp FROM z8 if there was no trading system.

So, how much does z8 gain from this situation?
z8 ONLY gets 50K zp (Guy 2 bought this much to trade)
Since the 30 K zp is already a sunk cost, we can neglect it.
Also, we can say z8 lost 50K zp since Guy 1 would have bought that much zp for M4 Patriot crates.

Situation 2 (No Trade)
Guy 1: I won OP M14EBR in 30 crates (For simplicity 30K zp)! 1 year later he realizes how boring the gun. Now he wants to buy M4 Patriot another OP gun. He goes and buys 60K zp FROM z8 to spend on m4 Patriot.

Guy 2: I want M14EBR so he buys 60K zp from z8 to spend on crates.

So, how much does z8 gain from this situation?
60K + 60K = 120K zp

TL;DR? z8 will never implement trading system since the zp is a currency in this game. The person who sells the gun will receive zp that can be used to buy the gun that he actually wants. If there were no trading system, he would have had to get the zp from z8.

TO HAVE A TRADING SYSTEM, Z8 WILL HAVE TO HAVE A "TAX" RATE OF OVER 100% OF THE TRADING PRICE

I know they won't. That's the whole point about this thread.
This is my answer to http://forum.z8games.com/showthread.php?t=231995
Some people didn't understand me so I thought perhaps the CF community needs an explanation

I understand

One_Legend

Taxing them or have a shipment fee is not a bad idea, but they still loose money. So what I think is that, Z8Games would only allow trading if they find a way to profit from it.
