Buyback Feature [Can I have it?]

[AeraLucis]

Yes! This is a great idea with few, if any, drawbacks. People make mistakes and considering the UI lag that we all experience when trying to vendor trash I don't see how anyone could hate this idea. It'll help make the game and the UI more user friendly.

The problem isn't so much the lack of a buyback feature as it is the laggyness of the UI. Whichever dev at SE thought having an almost entirely serverside UI needs to be reassigned (preferably to a department that doesn't directly affect the game).

If the UI is fixed, the buyback feature is much less necessary. While I wouldn't object to having it, I don't really feel that it's necessary once the UI itself is fixed.

So.

I just sold 150k worth of apkallu down to the vendor because of the unresponsiveness of the interface / lag. What I really wanted to sell, was 1 cockatrice feather.

Why is there no buyback feature?

Is there one planned?

If not, we desperately need a buyback feature.

Please "like" if you support implementing a buyback feature in the future.

Lol, you have no idea how many times I have done this! I once NPC-ed over 1 million gil worth of sheepskin because I thought it was fleece (I didn't notice until I sat back down to start crafting). But I can live with 1 million gil loss.

What really annoys me is when I accidentally NPC unique items which I can neve get again. I NPCed Onion gear including my helm and also some R30 class quest gear.

My suggestion is to just spam GM-call until they give it back to you or send you to jail.

This was actually brought up to Yoshida recently as something that players have been looking forward to seeing, when he was told about the request he gave a simple "Got it!" in response. As for the direction they're moving towards, it'll be as mentioned above, a way to buy back previously (and accidentally!) sold items from vendors.

Thank you Bayohne! I'm looking forward to it.

Awesome, it really is a sensible feature that would be very nice to have in those oh sh!t circumstances.

Next thing youll know is pple will want a 'save your progress or reset' button in case they fail leves or something other. Cause basically the buy back is a merchant reset button. >.>

Sounds like a great idea, and I look forward to it, but to go one step further; why not add an option to set items individually as "not for sale or trade" Thus when you visit a vendor the only items you can sell are lit up white or however it currently looks and those you set as not for sale are dimmed slightly grey...

Still can't believe things like this get brought up to bog down the devs when there are much more important things they need to worry about.

Would be a nice feature of course.
