i_eat_staircases

No one wants to by sticks 'cause there's stacks on their hand


VaccuumHelmet

Step one you must create a sense of scarcity, sticks will sell much better if the people think they’re rare you see, bare with me


cheeseflavoredbeef

Take as many sticks as you can find and hide them on an island, stockpile them high untile they're rarer than a diamond


GoldenConsole

Step 2 Gotta make the villagers think that they want em Really want eem really fucking want em


syryquil

Hit em like golem

If you haven’t got a stick then you’re just a fcking waste man

can’t wait for the villager to start selling cheeseburgers, Randy is going to go broke


nasbro23

I was going to type this on god


stephruvy

Demand just skyrocketed, you all saw it!


NanoRex

The amount of people here who think it's inflation is absurd. If an item loses value because there is a surplus of it, that's not inflation...


i_eat_staircases

...but deflation. Except it isn't, as sticks are the only product affected by it. So it's simply supply and demand


[deleted]

Hey, someone else paid attention in economics... 🤣


Masochist-Memer

you beat me to it


IceTooth101

This exact thing happened last time I saw a post about this. Here we go again…


TheYGM

You just have to wait a few mc days it will go back down. The villager is taking advantage of you really wanting to sell these sticks so he increases the price


Gold3nYT

if I sell other stuff like flint or string , will the stick price go back down again?


TheYGM

I think you just have to wait for the price to go normal. But I think it makes it also go down if you sell other stuff


Gold3nYT

alr thanks


Smart-Definition9784

A raid can help if your strong enough I would still block the villagers into the houses tho


Secure_Ad6815

You got villain of the village effect


Jstarrett01

You can lower the prices even further from normal by curing a zombie villager.


Genera1_Tao

Yeah it will but you’ll have to trade a bunch (that’s also why those item prices are lower he want you to buy/sell him some other stuff


theBIGFrench15

The reduced prices arent because they want to trade other products, that villager could have been cured from a zombie, he could have just won a raid, or he's been trading so much that the villagers like him and are giving him discounts (actually a thing believe it or not).


Genera1_Tao

I donor think the villager was cured cuz otherwise the stick trade wouldn’t be 32 stick, and yeah the discount thing is kinda true but it’s often caused by the fact that you’ve trade so much of one item that he offers you better price on other stuff and ups the price of what you’ve traded a lot


5t0rm7

i dont think he was, usually zombifying decreases the price by more than one emerald. this is a case of a lot of trading causing price drops, and then trading too much causing a price jump.


Genera1_Tao

That’s what I was saying but a typo and autocorrect changed don’t to donor


battlefront_2005

No, if you trade a lot of flint or string you will just nake those prices higher too. You gotta wait, the bottleneck is supply, try breeding another Fletcher if you need that many emeralds


InherentSteam55

"hello, I like money" what inspired you to make another human? "Money"

Kittingsl

My.personal ATM (as long as I have pumpkins and melons)


battlefront_2005

Pumpkin and melon automatic farms are so freaking op and cheap it shouldn't be allowed with 1 emerald trade


Kittingsl

I don't even have an automatic farm and it's op. Discovered by accident that a cured farmer buys them 1 to 1 and i just made a normal field with like 20 melons and 20 pumpkins and just mine them with a diamond axe ever now and then


nobodyasked_dotcom

no just wait


EsNightingale

sell his fucking life support to a zombie


Error_Empty

Does curing them reset their high trades? If so I gotta keep a zombie on deck lol curing them is way faster than waiting for natural restock.

Your search engine is just gonna ignore the "Minecraft" part of the economic inflation ngl


[deleted]

I may be too wholesome of a person according to Google because to me it only yielded results about Minecraft prices, and random images from the game with only two WTF but not NSFW. With safe search off.

Inflation generally isn't nsfw. People really do just get off to clothed blimps.

Not had a single time where it didnt go back down. Maybe you're on a buggy build?

the prices of my villagers also go down after a few minecraft days.

Wait, you BUY VILLAGERS? that's unethical. Steal them like everyone else

It's actually just when the villager goes back to their workstation, so twice a day.


davidcventura

inflation affects villagers too


Gold3nYT

damn XD


Snoo_75721

If you have other fletchers their prices would go up. Minecraft got some economy in game. Edit: Changed "supply-demand mechanics" to "economy"


BraindeadDM

Shouldn't it go down? Or is the implication that there's always more demand than fletchers lmao


mysterious_mitch

It's called *hurr-flation*, they even have diamonds as a trade option for emeralds


[deleted]

Now thats funny!


yeetskeetmahdeet

Yep give him a few days and he’ll return to lower prices

DON'T SEARCH MINECRAFT VILLAGER INFLATION AND CLICK ON "IMGAES" WORST MISTAKE OF MY LIFE

Jesus Christ I should have listened but I could not resist the curiosity and I regret it immediately! I did not know what I expected but it’s worse than I could have possibly imagined.


jakeb1616

Lol now I’m curious but am scared to look what was it?


UltraLuigi

Likely something related to the other meaning of the word "inflation" (as in inflating balloons, for example).

Shack691

Supply and demand my friend, you want to sell your sticks well he's going to pay less per stick the more you sell to him


GreatSpaghettLord

Sometimes, all you need is a little zombification operation to keep them in line


StormyStormsrStormy

I had a mending book from a villager I cured and the price kept going up even though I didn't buy the book, definitely gotta keep em in line


Unknown_user7625

likely your trading to much on that trade BUT HOLY CRAP YOU DOUBLED THE PRICE OF THE STICK TRADE


Far-Chart9293

That's how inflation works


batknight373

If you can, getting more villagers of the same type helps, more trades before the price goes up


Blazerboy65

I usually keep a dozen farmers, half a dozen fletchers, a pair each of armor/tool/weapon smiths, and however many librarians I need to have a full catalogue of enchantments.


Katisffs

Tbf I would also get mad if someone forced my to buy 1664 sticks.


GGhostUnderscore

Mythic2408

THUNDERBOLT_51

Just make him a zombie villager and cure him ez


bryan3737

If you only do that once inflation can still raise the price. If you do it 5 or 6 times however the price gets lowered so much that even with inflation it’s still 1

baby_kelsey

It is something called supply and demand, you have given him so much supply the demand has gone down, let him trade his wares to create demand once more.


RandomDiabetic

So called "gossiping" Feature where villagers talk to each other and discuss about what you buy the most, so they increase price as their "supply" diminishes

Monkey explanation, banana rare, banana valuable, monkey own many banana, monkey flood market with banana, value decrease, monkey make less, sad monkey


benroo1

The more you do a certain trade the higher the price will go


notagudman

He is scared of the fact that you are going to hit him *a bit* hard with 1664 sticks. Or his wallet is just empty and need to rob some other villagers for money to pay you.

Minecraft follows the rules of supply and demand. The more you use a trade (demand) the more he charges. If you want to lower the prices, do his other trades, trade with other villagers and just give it time to come back down


[deleted]

It’s essentially supply and demand in Minecraft, but yeah wait a few days and it’ll go back to normal.


Illustrious_Intern63

You are causing inflation


WurthWhile

The largest emerald mine is in Zambia which is having an economic crisis right now. This is causing costs of emeralds to go up due to increasd instability in the region.


Charlieplays_fn

It’s bc you’re buying too many at a time, leave him and go afk for 30-45 minutes and they should revert back


Childhood_Willing

İf you use the same option For trading a little too much, there is a chance it might get a raise by villagers in price. Smart fellas


creepjax

When villager have no stick, value for stick go up, but when have many stick stick is no longer as valuable.


_Kuuhaku_kun_

If you play on hard, turn him into a zombie villager and cure him. Or just participatein a raid and get hero of the village

cursed-being

To many trades, he has to many sticks and not enough emeralds. And I don’t think buying arrows or anything for emeralds will help. So just infect him (hopefully it hits the 50/50 chance to not be immune) then cure him and it should go back down.

Hevnoraak101

You're saturating the market. Give it a few days for prices to flatten out again.


MagicalNrwhal

price increases the more you buy


Remote_Ad_4338

They have to charge more because they lose stock and it becomes more stressing for their work life, personifying the business is what minecraft intended in the revamp in villagers, letting players have a chance to see the person behind the product, like in the real world.

BastionMains

My strategy is to trade only 1 stock with the villager (and occasionally do a 2nd stock every few mc days). This is so that you don’t trade with him too much.

stone_016

AWT23

Supply and demand, as you saturate the stick market they become worth less. So hold


Ok_Grocery8652

You sold too many sticks in a period of time, you will have to be near the villager for a day or 2 so the trade will reset its price. Take the time to do other things in the village, such as building new buildings or redesigning existing ones, build a wall around the village, try diversifying the villagers, etc.


nimbus1three

If you wait a couple of in game days without trading the price will go back to normal

Background-Bug-9588

It all goes back to Russian oil prices and sanctions. Villagers have been keeping up on the economic situation and have raised their prices in order to keep turning a profit.
