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

[IveraIvalice]

Who says I'm selling in 99s? So far I haven't really had to wait more than 2 days for anything to sell (heck, some are moving in hours and those were stacks of 99), so yeah... You can keep throwing your hyperbolic ideas of how long it takes items to sell just because you're not buying it, and I'll keep selling it in no time at all without you.

Having a market where individual items have varying values based on quantity is still better for me. Having a market where people can't slowly pick away at my stacks is still better for me. The only downside you people seem to come up with is that stuff wont sell fast enough, which so far is an out right fabrication, in my experience, so good luck convincing me otherwise.

The current system rewards smart sellers, the old one simply did not. You know what problem buyers have at the moment? That the game is just out the gates and the economy hasn't really become stable yet (if anything has slowed my sales rates, it has been rampant price fluctuations). That's it. There is no fault with the current system, just more impatience from the Final Fantasy XIV forum community. You can't buy items at the price/stack size you want yet? Do tell me more about that while some people still can't even log into the damn game.

The down side is very simple, it's not convenient. The average buyer just wants to buy something because its quick, Lot quicker the going out and getting it yourself. But also the average buyer doesn't have a ton of cash to throw around. Remember the game is geared more towards the casual community.

Having the system that we have now means a lot of casual players won't want to buy anything because they simply don't have enough money. No one goes up to the marks saying, "cool I need 4 electrum ore but the smallest amount is a stack of 10. He'll yeah! I love buying 6 more ore then I need "

no most people will either sucking up and buy it or walk away. Kuz when you think about it, if I need 4 ore, at best I can craft whatever I'm trying to craft twice and then have 2 left over that I can't to anything with. So while your inventory is sparkely clean, mine is full of crap that I don't need. And knowing that's gonna happen, I'm not buying.

So it doesn't matter if my money is the only money on the market, clearly I'm not the only buyer, but don't active I'm the only one with this mindset. Any amount of people refusing to buy because its inconvenient for them is money lost to sellers.
