but this but by having another server shop it prevents people from making money if they want to sell cheaper if they sell cheaper then a player will just come along and buy all of their stuff and sell it to the ss also by making it buy/sell at 100$ you then stop anyone from being able to compete with ss because if they do they will loose money because players will buy theirs and sell to ss.... or they will buy from ss and sell to player shops... by making the ss buy and sell you make it harder to have player shops get more people to buy their stuff
what Im saying is the ss makes it harder for players to make money by owning a shop I believe by adding a ss you destroy they player shop. or we leave it how it is now but separate econs
bot: a concern I have with having another servershop that buys things if it prevents people from placing a lower price on gold and diamonds to compete they handicap themselves if they put gold at 95$ and ss is buing it for 100
this makes it imposable for shops to compete with the server.
pigpenguin: There would be no point in a player selling gold for $95 when they can go to the bank and cash it in for $100. Are you concerned with people being able to buy gold? That seems like a reasonable concern. Unless anyone can think of any downsides, I'll revise the plan to have the server buy AND sell gold for $100. I don't think that should affect anything... and it actually makes more sense when I think about it.
The bank shouldn't make it hard to sell diamonds. Players should have diamonds priced between $330-399 or so. This makes the player shop more attractive to players than the bank, but in the case where there are no player shops selling diamonds, people can still buy them.
So in all, only the sale of gold would be strictly set at $100, but that's pretty much the point, to have a gold-based currency. Think of gold as a hundred dollar bill. You wouldn't sell a hundred dollar bill for more (well I would if I could) or less than one hundred dollars, so we're doing the same here with gold.
Edit: I kind of like the idea of being able to buy your account's worth in gold, so all your money is in physical form. It's certainly more dangerous, but imagine rooms and dungeons lined with gold... gold that's worth something. I think we can get creative here.

at the end of the day what is done is done, what has been said is said, I just hope that's good enough because going back and trying to change things never helped any one.
