We need an AH

[Mack]

You are kind of bending his words, and I dont think its fair to use that as an argument for or against market wards or auction houses in this case.

The player you quoted said the following



The main part of his post seemed to be talking about impulse buying, and im not quite sure how that fits in to this conversation (no offense TessaJalloh!!). I think he/she was just explaining how impulse buying might fit in with this situation on either side of the AH / Ward line.

I didn't bend anything. He said that with the MW there is the benefit of impulse buying, where you open up a retainer and see other stuff you might wish to buy. Then he said this is only possible with an AH with items that are nearby what you're searching for....well, this is also true for the MW isn't it? in the case I stroll off and start clicking on other retainers so i can shop on "impulse" it'd be the same as me flipping through the AH. This is hardly a benefit.

Again, I dont think his argument really benefits either market wards or auction houses though. He is simply stating his opinion on buying things on impulse from what I can see.

I only mentioned the bending of words since you took that and used it to defend market wards and retainers. Sorry if I misunderstood, but if I did not then ill stand by what I said

His original reply seemed to be a random thought on how these two systems affect impulse buys, not defending one system one way or another.
