Trading is bad, Here's a new Solution.

[Puicey_Enthusiast]

Trading in the game Sucks because Players are often AFK or busy in a dungeon/Boss fight or in general too busy or don't even notice the chat popping off with offers.

So instead of a face to face trade system in-game, Make it so when you put an Item up for sale in your stash for a set price other people who want to buy it can just press "Buy" and that item in you're stash will instantly be replaces with the Currency or item you traded/sold it for!

So you no longer need to meet up or wait for confirmation, it works more like an online purchase and the item it delivered to you (in this case sent to your own stash/inventory)


Please if any developers are reading this make this happen, So many times i have tried to buy stuff to never get a response

Trading is bad because this community is toxic and the game is a dump, wake up mate.

I really wish they would just do an in game auction house. Would solve all the problems.

A long time ago, in POE1, the Devs vowed to never do an auction house. Very dumb in my opinion.

Using the website and meeting people for trades is tedious. For console users it must be even worse.

I completely agree with you. Just lubricate the sale for us. Nothing is more annoying than getting your time wasted on a game that already punishes its players for dying. I mean you can have a hard day in map losing experience all day, then you go to the market to buy waystones are something else and you message 25 people and don't get a response. It is like going to the grocery store and seeing a bunch of food behind a window which has low prices, but you are not allowed to buy it.

Seriously this mechanic needs fixing. I tried to comment in regards to this on global chat and all I got was a 10 minute ban for saying a bad word that hurts peoples feelings in a game that is adult AF. There is really messed up priorities with gamer's times in regards to this. And I don't know one player yet that the non-responses does not piss off. Either this, or actual orb penalties for missing a trade.

I dunno, I do feel quite the rush when someone actually replies now.

This is not a revolutionary idea. The real issue is that the devs don't want to implement it. Anyone with half a brain could come up with this solution

[Dwane Dibbley]

This would get screwed by bots so fast, you would make another post "new trading sux hard" in day after implementation. Bots would be flipping EVERYTHING for absolutly minimal profit, bots would be flipping even things from other bots. Most things would be 3x flipped before you check stats and price. You will be getting "item no longer available" so often, you would ask for going back to current system.

auction house or an exchange will literally solve this problem over night. anyone arguing against this fact is extremely uninformed and has no experience what so ever when it comes to video game commerce.

or economics in general. like the above poster

just 100% clueless

D3 tried ingame auction house with RMT and ditched it after a year, I remember I sold "Hamburger Dagger" for 2.3 euros in there.

i think they mentioned buyout option in the recent interview. atm price fixing is real and buyouts would fix this.
i dont think you will see an AH ingame, they want traffic for their trade site.....

Last Epoch attempted anti-bot trading system

History lesson:
Diablo ditched the RMAH because they also tweaked drop rates to force you to use it. Literally coded in reductions in class usable loot so that you would have to sell the useless crap you did get to afford the right gear another class was getting.

Which is why after they ripped out the RMAH they had to completely overhaul the loot system.

POE doesnt mess with the loot drops based on your class, so an in-game board you can use to directly purchase things from other players will not negatively affect the economy.

It will solve the biggest issue plaguing the trade website: *People putting up 1Ex trades for desirable gear with the explicit intent to never respond to any messages or offers in order to trick unsuspecting players into matching their price and then swooping in to grab it so they can flip it for its actual value.

That tactic is literally impossible in a system where you place an item for sale and another player simply buys and receives it immediately.

Market flippers exist in the current website and archaic trade system we have right now.

No one in their right mind would post a desirable item for 1Ex in an environment where someone else can snap it up instantly.

The best solution IMO is to leave website trading and its associated need for private messages and manual trades in hideouts in as an option.

Then they create a marketboard utilising the same system we have for Currency Exchange.
Simply put in the item and modifiers you are looking for and how many Exalt/Divines you're willing to pay.
Someone else looks at the current "want" listings and finalises a trade if they feel the currency offered is acceptable and they have a matching item.

Others can post up "I have" on an item in their premium tab that they want to sell and create a listing others can browse and accept if they feel the offer is acceptable.

Done. Now both sides can trade in a way they feel is superior.

D3 in game AH works. It stop working when the devs go greedy and allow real money. Surprise surprise everyone start listing all item with USD instead of in game currency.

AH will solve trading problems but it is not going to solve scalper, market trader and bot problems. To solve those you need trade tax. Significant trade tax so if those bots and market trader do trade flipping they will go bankrupt in 1 hr.
