It's also a video game, not a real market.
Just sayin'.
What do you mean just a videogame? This isn't just a videogame...this is like..everything!

Even a video game economy can be compared to real life as long as real people are buying/selling things.

I really think the tax should work the other way around. The buyer shouldn't suffer the penalty of an increased price at the irresponsibility or neglect of the vendor. If anything that tax should give a reduction in their sale while the buyer retains their static/given price.
I disagree cause then a seller should change/remove all his bazaar everytime he zones into town so to avoid being undercut. The tax on buyers works either way cause they will just buy outside and sellers will move outside as well for a faster chance at profit.

While I see what you mean, that's the nature of being a seller. You have to fluxuate your inventory and said prices based on regional location and the presence or therelack of taxes. The penalty shouldn't be towards the buyer as a sort of deterrent from overpopulating the city with bazaars. The seller should be the one motivated to move to ideal locations, not the buyer.

What is the point of the taxes? I really don't understand it, a tax system only works if the tax goes to funding a government or equivalent governing body. In FFXI you simply lose money, for what reason :/ ?

It's interesting because unlike real life, everyone technically has a means of obtaining items put on sale. Buying things merely becomes a matter of convenience in the video game world.

Not in the way Arte is demanding things be forced on the seller.
It's not a market like a business.
It's them selling an item they own to another person.
Tax can go either way, but it's easiest the way it's set up now.

Well, this is all a moot point now anyway, since the only places taxes even happen are bazaaring in Aht Urghan or selling on the Auction House. :P

Been sober over a year.
Feels good.

Why do so many people feel the need to have their bazaar sign on, and when you stop and check them, they have 999,999,999 in all the slots for junk items.

Does this drive anybody else who shops bazaars crazy?

Yes, yes it does. I know of several people who have over 15 various signed items in their bazaar for max gil.

I wish I had 15 free slots for junk. I'm lucky to have 3 free inventory slots on any of my jobs.
