Lets be honest.. no one actually goes inside the wards to search for items. Only reason they go is to put in items in retainers to sell. What i'm trying to get at is that people are going to have a HARD time selling melded gear and +1 items. What I think a solution is a Filter to the Search Counter that lists 20 most expensive, 20 most cheap, 20 items with HQ... just a thought.

Don't really understand why they have to limit the amount of items shown. What like an additional 5-10 more seconds of waiting for the item list to propagate? lol

They should make all the wards linked in search so that everyone isn't clogging up Ul'dah. The wards exploded after the merger and, while I was lucky enough to fit both of mine into the Middle Tailors ward, I haven't moved them to another floor to avoid taxes yet out of fear of losing my "spot". If SE would link all 3 cities's search and all you to view a scrollable list of everything being sold (instead of just the top 20) the economy would be in a better place.

I am in favor of using Gridania's wards for HQ/Melded items...

There is a second problem with Uldah - you can't even call your retainer sometimes because the wards are full >.<

Shouldn't be hard to split the window up like that.

Or just add filter options for HQ/materia gear. That way the people who are actually looking for that gear have an easier time finding it.

Yeah that is an other issue... I can't even put my retainer in the right area.. instead I have to be forced to pay a 5% Tax...
