the problem is — you can buy claims from other players for more than half that cost

 

That doesn't make you the official town owner.

 

yes, but if you post a town transfer application for 150k and purchase a claim for 150k, that would be 200k less

 

If the server is offering it, it shouldn't beat the current market rates. Encouraging trading is good.

But regardless we don't need to make claims more available really.
