[dev1251] Item search like this is useless

[Sephrick]

Yes, that's [sarcasm]EXACTLY WHAT I SAID!!! /eyeroll[/sarcasm]

I find the price history to be a nice addition, because not every item is always up to gauge off of. They added the feature to buy stuff directly for the people who don't want to walk to the retainer. It's a luxury tax.

It's exactly what you said. Suggesting someone not use it because of an inherent and glaring flaw suggests that the subject service has no worth or purpose.

I just don't understand why people insist on saying: "Please don't charge until XXX is fixed". It's done. Deal with it.

They really just don't get it though. Obviously players wanted to see HQ and NQ in the item search. This change they have announced is worthless. The surcharge is also BS! "Yo, get your shizzle from this window for extra gilz". That's pure fail.

It is inconceivable that they do not have the names of the player that sold the item and the player that purchased the item in the history.

Too bad they don't show the name of the player who owns the retainer in the MW. It would be nice to see who is really lowballing you and so you could avoid buying from RMTs (lol) or Jimmy Crackcorn.

Th surcharge is perfect.

They even stated by/after 1.20b it will change it up a bit and we all know that patches xa/xb come fairly quickly after the base patch. As for no players names ... It's not the player selling it, it's the retainer thus it displays the name of the retainer.

Really? Show me where it shows the name of the retainer in the History:

Do you even remember what you post about? So you should probably be a lot more clearer on what you're regarding, given there is a reason the names of the retainer owner isn't displayed.

There were a few points that I made in my post.

Did you mean: "As for player names not being displayed as the owner of the retainer....."?

Step off.

You're a total derp... who cares about the history of what did sell.. you can see who is selling what right now

Nice personal attack!!! GFY!!! Good for you!

Who cares? Is that the best you can come up with for an argument? Pathetic.

We need also can sell via search

It's good to see the names of retainers in the sales history too, so you can see if someone is trying to scam the markets by buying things from themselves over and over again.

It would be suspicious to me if all 20 entries in the history were from the same person. However because I can't see the name, who knows if they were legitimate purchases or not.

Imo, putting in a sales history without proper safeguards against rmt/scammers is a big mistake. They should leave out the sales history for now until they are more prepared with a more complete system.

Now I understand that the history gets erased during server maintenance which helps in some ways. However it also just gives people another opportunity to throw things way out of whack every maintenance. After every maintenance the prices will be like as if the items just came out for the first time. People will take advantage of this clean slate and try to manipulate prices every time.
