[dev1251] Item search like this is useless

[neizero]

"Verifying item quality (whether HQ or NQ) and details regarding materia-crafted items through the Item Search is not currently possible, but we plan to alleviate this some time after patch 1.20b."


What's the point of being able to buy from the Item search list if I have no idea of what I am buying? I could end up buying an overpriced NQ + pay taxes on top!!! So until this is fixed, we still have to go find the retainer...


Please SE make sure you don't start charging before this is implemented. This was meant to be one of stars of the patch, and once again you push the important things back.

/sigh

EDIT: Please note this thread is not about buyer tax, that's just a trivial annoyance IMO. This thread is about the inability to view item details from item search, forcing you to still visit multiple wards/retainers to find what you seek. This doesn't meet the standard we were promised before subscription fees start.

Hiding a gil sink within an improvement to the Market Wards is a bad way to go about things, especially when we won't know what exactly we're getting until it's purchased.

i wanted the "verifying NQ/HQ" search over buying from market window >_>

It will not happen before paying, as its stated to be alleviated after 1.20b, this is a very big dissapointment, making a very good feature almost redundant. People do scam so you'll have no choice but to hunt the retainers.

Least it works for everything else that HQ doesn't matter so much or isn't included (Shards XD)

Here's a suggestion: Don't use the search system for HQ purchases.

Another way of crying. Waa waaa waaa waa

Like I stated in another post, you people cry about everything and anything. They already told you it's coming in a future patch, yes you are playing essentially an open beta until 2.0 comes out. And yes you are going to pay for this open Beta on top of it! Deal with it or don't play the game, I can't be sympathetic to all the retarded stuff on this forum.

or dont use them at all....the devs sure seem to think that when they want to charge you to not step into the laggy wards in the first place. All ends up being kind of pointless.

Smart people will still uses xxx,xxx,xx1(2)/(3) on their HQ sales until proper system is up there.

Some people will start using this trying to trick people into buying NQ from item list
