Not being able to buy single items from a stack on the marketward.

The current features of the market wards were created based on discussions held between the market planning team and Yoshida. The market wards were set up in this way so that it would be possible to create differences between players who check the market and those that do not, by allowing the person placing items onto the market to research the current demand and sell an amount of items that are easy to buy.

I can see how the system in place would be beneficial to help create discounts for buying "more" of something, but with item sale limitations, it's rough trying to find a single item to buy without being forced to buy a stack. Plus everything is way overpriced to begin with...

To be the easiest amount of an item to buy, is "one".

Oh for Gods sake.
It's cumbersome, unnecessary, and just inconvenient. This is the same kind of over thinking logic that led to the terrible 1.0 system in the first place.

I don't want to buy a huge expensive stack of horns when I only need one, and it's just time consuming to go out and get every ingredient myself. And no one is going to sell one of an item because you only give them 20 slots at a time!

You guys have made some questionable decisions but this has got to be one of the least helpful. You're all about bringing the game up to standard? Well this is severely substandard.

Please PLEASE reconsider.

No just no by doing this you make people pay more in the long run. There are times when you just want one item. I know people in my ls that come to me with mats to make items for them due to not havening the time to level everything them self. How will this be right for them or me when I would like to make something and being one item short. Instead of spending all that time going back out to farm I can get it from the market. This hurts the buyers more then the seller and I sorry to say I'm not going to put just 1 of 99 on the market that's a waste of time and space when you only give us 20 spot on a rentainer. Pls change and be nice

Okay, but that isn't working....These people are just trying to sell huge quantities for outrageous prices. I tried to by two things the other day to make some botany gloves. I would have had to spend 500k to get just two items.

Isn't that the sellers' fault. Smart sellers will put up stuff for lower stacks and even be able to charge more per item. I hope this doesn't get changed. If I just need a tablespoon of salt for something, I don't get to go into a grocery store and demand they take a tablespoon of salt from a box and sell it to me.

I hope SE doesn't cave in this regard. Giving sellers more options to be competitive is a good thing.

I understand that the development team has carefully discussed the matter internally and that the current system is the result of the decisions you made after said careful discussions. However, we, the players, your paying customers, are telling you in no uncertain terms that we feel you've made bad decisions, and that we feel things were better before, many of us having actually had a chance to compare both systems.

So in effect you are saying those who "check the markets" *ie sellers* can monopolise the hell out of those who don't, guess I will just farm everything myself and the market-ward will just become a feature I never use.

I was hope that SE would change this decision at some point (especially considering the outcry from people in this thread), but I am pretty sure now that they won't.

While this might have been the goal, I feel the opposite is true. This ends up restricting both the buyer and the seller. I'm all for giving the buyer the option to sell as a stack. And thus can only be bought as a stack, but what ends up happening is buyers and sells what to buy the amount they want to buy, and there are sellers who would be happy if player A bought 50 items, and player B bought 10 etc, selling 60 beats selling 0.

Please reconsider.
