Market board change

When putting items on the market boards for cheaper than NPC value.
There should be a pop up that says, You are putting these items on the market board for below NPC value would you like to have your retainer just sell the item.
Also, any items on the market board below NPC value should get auto sold after 1 hour.

You could always just buy the items posted below NPC sale price and then sell them to the NPC yourself for a profit.

It literally says the vend price on the same screen as the price you list it for.

Most players can't even remember where the NPCs are to buy the stuff and would rather just use the Marketboard for convenience.

There's just one thing I wanted for the Marketboard:

A separate headgear category to put corsages on >_>

Can we force players to list items 1 gil under the last listed price to stop the rampant under cutting?

They put the vendor sale and purchase prices on the item description for this very purpose. Just take a moment when listing to look at the bottom of the box for the price. If you cannot be bothered to look at something literally right in front of you, then you get what you get. I mean, how much do you need your hand held...

Can we also have a button which automatically updates all listings to 1 gil under the lowest price?

Are you referring to "Shop Selling Price" or "Sells for" price?

Few players are going to sell an item at retainer/vendor for 10 gil when they can sell it on the MB for 100 gil even though the Shop Selling Price is 228 gil.

If you're referring to the "Sells for" price, the information is already there on the item tooltip. Check before you list.

My newly created alts appreciate the players who list their items on the MB well below "Sells for" price because it's a nice way for them to make some extra gil when they're starting out. Nothing like picking up a few Clear Demimateria III for 3500 gil each then selling it to the vendor for 5k. That 1500 is nothing to a high level player but it's a big help to the low level character who need to buy gear.

I also appreciate it as a max level player because every junk item getting listed on the MB is one less listing that might be competing against what I'm selling.

That's still undercutting.

If you don't like the price another player is using, buy the item and relist it at the price you like. You don't get to decide how I'm going to value what I'm selling.

They aren't talking about ppl putting up items up for sale under what an NPC sells them for, they are discussing putting up items under what NPC's buy for.

IE Music rolls sells to NPC merchants for 150 gil, yet ppl put them up on the MB for 140 gil or less.

Retainers have enough prompts as is, and the system is set up so that only the player selling the item is accountable if they remain unaware of the information that is provided for them.

This is the very reason people get rich by selling vendor items on the mb. People are too lazy to be bothered to read the items they're selling or buying.

When you put an item up for sale on the marked board the NPC vendor sale price gets automatically filled in. If you are lowering that price, you are doing something wrong. We don't need any further notice.

If you initially list it higher and then reduce the price in response to someone undercutting you (perhaps multiple times) it's not so obvious though. You have to hover over the item and check the tooltip for the NPC vendor price.
