Market Wards, enough is enough

[Vesperia]

wards are stupid, they are not a real market system, might as well have an Auction house and also a REAL market sytem (non instanced market wards please)

Umm. They're not instanced. Everyone uses the same ones. Yes, you zone into them, but everyone goes to the same place.

What functionality are you missing, that a 'real AH' would provide?

The only thing I miss is HQ item listings. Although, it would be nice to give my retainer some gil, and send her off to buy things.

One way people are working around that is to change the last digit of the selling price.(NQ:2000, +1:2001, +2:2002, +3:2003)

Yea, would be nice to just have it shown & not have to do all that, but somethin' to look for if anyone didn't know about it.

It would be nice because in the busy merchandise it creates an unnecessary clutter of useless posts.

For example, everyone and their brother having a price war over Crab Bow NQ +1 and +2 completely bumps the +3 off the screen which is what everyone is making Crab Bow for to begin with - it's a good player-made system, but in some scenarios is a huge hindrance to the process it's trying to serve.

That IS a really good idea. I'm on board.

Yes, and I've even used that to find things, but not everyone uses it. I've been mentioning it to friends and LS members.
