Further proof that the market wards are a festival of failure.

My one and only problem with the Market Wards is the people who just post there retainers in a Ward and never take them out.. Half the wards are filled with empty retainers that only have 1 useless item on them. To that point I think SE need only implement a system that kicks retainers out of the Wards similar to how items were removed from the AH in XI after 7 days.

As far as mailing items to a player is concerned I feel that would take as long or longer than just entering the ward and buying the items so the argument doesn't sway me.

I agree that we need an HQ search and I am starting to favor connecting the Three City's wards simply because no one actually uses Gridania and LL on my server..

I agree. Mailing items, at least on the topic of MW, is a waste of effort when the items can be placed either right in your inventory or in your loot list. Mailboxes have their place, but I have not heard a persuasive argument for using them in conjunction with the MW while other, better game mechanics exist.
