If there was no sellout mechanic, people would NOT be able to corner the market. As it stands, anyone who feels like it can camp the guild and buy out most, if not all, of the useful materials.
Can we pretend that Airships
In the night sky
Are like shooting stars
I could really use a Raise right now

It also makes no sense for Guilds to close and have holidays but all other shops be open 24/7. The "real world vibe" is just an excuse. I'm not really sure why people bother asking for anything to be changed at this point.
1. The guild holidays do serve some purpose - when a material is spammed the previous day its cost goes up. With guild holidays you at least know that the next day mythril ores won't cost 12,000 gil a rock.
2. They don't mean people eating up all the materials to screw other players over, they mean people buying bottomless amounts of materials which could sometimes affect the economy. It also affects total supply of goods on the AH which could get destructive if the market gets over-saturated.
The could probably do with increasing the number of items available per guild day to prevent the aforementioned player against player problem in #2, and perhaps offer a compromise for Guild Holidays by extending non-holiday operation hours.
Edit: inbefore Waah wahh SE remove the "cost goes up" guild feature.
That exists for a reason too.
Heee hee. I love this pattern.
Players: "We have a suggestion."
Developers: "No, we're not going to implement that."
Players: *petulant whining*
All the auction houses have been linked together. Why aren't the Guild Salesrooms?
