And right here is the big elephant in the room that everyone in this thread seems to be ignoring: a single player being *able* to take up so *many* slots in a market-board list... and if they have multiples of retainers, being able to fill the *entire* list with things they personally are selling. This goes beyond the Cosmic Exploration stuff, by the way: I and others have seen this in multiple listings where everything on the list is being sold for the exact same price, with scads by one retainer, then scads by another---and often by the retainers' names you can tell it's very likely ONE player who's hogged the entire listing.

This is an ongoing problem. I'd like to see some way of devising a limit on how many items a *player character* can post for sale, whether they have one retainer or nine. Say, five non-stackables of a *specific* item, or if it stacks, five listings of stacks?

Most people don't and won't do this "board hogging," but for the ones who do, if someone tries to undercut them JUST to get an item into the listing to sell, they'll often reprice *all* their listings to knock that person back off the listings page. It's just not right.
