You haven't purchased the item when it is your cart. It will still be on the market. Intelligent people wouldn't put the last of a specific item in high demand in a shopping cart and let it sit there while others could still buy it before they "check out". Works the same way for online stores.

maybe i didnt make myself clear enough so ill try again

based on what you replied to my post: if the item isnt locked out when its in your cart, then someone else can come along in the 5 mins or so that you are "shopping" and buy it out from under you.

This will never be implimented and this thread should move onto discussing something that actually might happen. like the wish list idea you posted. that might actually happen and is a good idea. Shopping cart will never happen.

But this happens now! Two people could be looking to buy the same item off the same retainer and one of them is going to leave disappointed. Every time you attempt to purchase something from the Market Wards there is always a chance someone will swoop in seconds before you and snatch up that item.

Precisely. It could prompt you when you add an item to the cart if there are less than 3 of said item left. "Due to the low supply of this item it may be purchased by someone else. Are you sure you don't want to buy it now?" or something hopefully more brief and aptly worded.
