Maybe my newbieish perspective may be helpful here ^.^;

I like the idea of being able to more easily peruse items that are available and their price. This will make things easier for me. Yes, MORE features (details, history, 3D rotation of item) would be well appreciated, and perhaps some of these may make it into the future.

But for the moment, the ability to just peruse some items is better than before.


Side note: My purse is sad about the 5% surcharge.
Side Side note: I kind of liked the auction hall in FFXI. Am I alone in that? I wonder why this 'retainer' approach was taken instead.
