Setting Land For Sale to One's Self or for a Wildly Expensive Price

[Tor Karlsvalt]

What are the reasons one might set land for sale to one's self, or to anyone for an outragiously expensive price?  

I see this done from time to time and wonder the reasons for it.

The reason a person might set a piece of land to sell back to themselves is if the land had been purchased under a group and they no longer want it to be group owned...they just set it for sale for 0L and rebuy the land so it shows only that individual person as owner.  Another reason could be because the land had been deeded to a group and they no longer want it deeded.

As for the expensive land prices, a smart estate owner will set a piece of land for sale for the price of at least 1 weeks tier amount.  Reason being, some land owners will set the " buy " price to a low amount, usually 40L to 100L and that amount is basically to transfer the land from the estate owners name into your name, then you have to go to another location to pay the actual tier amount.  Some people who have nothing better to do than to cause problems for estates will go around and " buy " parcels of land for a tiny price with no intentions of ever paying tier on them.  Setting a full sim for sale at it's actual tier price as opposed to 40L will make people think twice about causing trouble.
