it so difficult to do trading in poe
i find my self in very hard to understand the new trading system.
1) first check item at poe.trading
2) ah..i found what i looking for...click on whispers
3)patch the massage in the game(hi i want to buy your item bla bla bla )
4) and i wait for the seller to replay for ( party invitations)
5) seller replay then go to her hideout
6)and wait for trade invitations and click yes.. done u got your item
this is for buyer they want it and wait forr seller to replay...but for seller it different
1) you must have premium stash so u can collor it and put price on item u want to sale and it automatically will showing at poe.trading web site
2)when u in game amcos u want to farm for experience and u do some grinding in dungeons but the massage non stop (xxxx@ hi i want to buy your item xxxx in stash number bla bla bla) ... :(
3) im in dungeons for god sake :( ...i can,t log out i need this experience...nah wait till im finish this dungeons
4) problem is the buyer cannot wait it always go to other seller but when it want to trade it difficult for me to know what item he want cos u buzy in faming experience in game..and the massage in game are so many (hi i want to buy this ..hi i wannt to buy that) so it hard for me to know what does he want...i always massage them (sorry what item u want again)
5) this trading system is so defficult...first go to whispers to check his name and pres S for social and type his caracter name and invite to party...and take out the item he want from the primium stash and do trading :(

can P.O.E make the trading system much easier so it dont have to do invite party to do trading...i think just put item in primium stash when buyer want it just click buy and it automatically tranfer item and game currency to their stash...how about that...or do some trading NPC in game just like other game when u want to buy or sale item just go to that NPC...wala trading is done

it's like this on pourpose, they want you to play the game not the AH, the company name is "Grinding" Gear Games.
You can set an autoreplay message.
I'm not saying it's ok, but this is how they made it.
It's relly easy to trade once you get used to it.

You have 6 portals for a reason, and unless you're playing very, very poorly you're likely only using one per map anyway. Plus it should take 45 seconds at most for you to complete a transaction unless you're trading absurdly expensive items, and if you're trading something worth dozens of exalts then you shouldn't mind having to wasting a bit more time to do the trade.

Yes, this is because of how many people just never respond. You need to move on and message someone else quickly or you'll never purchase an item.

List fewer items that are more valuable instead. Making those 2alt trades literally isn't worth the time. It's inconceivable to me that you're getting so many valuable items dropping that you're getting too many messages to even be able to manage them.
Also, the chat stays around for a reason. Why would you message them asking what they want when you can just scroll up slightly and see exactly what they said they wanted to buy?

I'm going to blow your mind here: Right click on their name in the chat window. It'll have this "Invite to party" button that literally everyone else in the game uses.

"reduced drop ratio" was all I needed to read to know this game is 100% broken

GGG needs to get with modern technology. Steam has this thing called a market items and inventory like cs go and other games. games broken straight up your forced to trade to get the items you need then what is no one responds or the game dies then you cant get nothing

Tbh i kinda wish there were some sort of "trading master" or something wich u could level up and stock up with items, would be fun to log on and see whats been sold and collect the shinies etc.

Some people are also utter ♥♥♥♥, wasting your time making you go to your ho and then just leave and stop responding, or when youre buying they tell you to wait a few min cos theyre bussy and then they sell it to someone else or log off or whatever. Half the ppl here dont even say thank you.

And is there any way to deal with those faggy price fixers? Except just ignoring em? Ive been trying to buy divination cards lately to try and complete some sets cos i have a whole tab full of that crap, but all the sellers that sells cards that actually are worth buyng never responds.Like that guy slappeddownbysquids or whatever, he just go "NO DEAL" lol ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ douche.. i tried reporting it but theres no option for reporting this bs, theres an option for "hate spech" tho lol censoring people is more important than dealing with scummer. Mabye theres something on the poe trade site that ive missed?

Dont seem like the not playing the AH part is a great success either way..

i agree with that steam have market item..why not use that...but anyway every game have this dark side of marketing system it call scam..i think the developer try to prevent this happen to POE site.... lots of scam market out there especially for gamer item cos they can get a lots of $$$ and easy to cheat...i watch youtube how to do trading it say dont do trading on chat game cos it easily get scam...i been playing POE for a while now and i saw this chat so many item they do trading...now how they do that

Yeah, that.

If you're going to comment and/or complain, you should go read that link. That's Chris Wilson's Trade Manifesto.

According to GGG, trading is too easy as it is.
