....oh wait

Apologize if this has been mentioned already, but often when I dispatch my retainer through the merc house it goes happily away, but if I check my retainer list it's not in a ward.
Can we please either:
1. Only have wards with available space listed for dispatch
2. At least get an error that the ward selected is full without backing out of all the menus.



This retainer ward thing is so bad ; ; I don't know whats the worst part...the server lag or the fact I can't look up an item while selling it. :/
Hmm... Seems my retainers finally got kicked. I wonder what the deal was...

One word.... Broken. I'm sorry dev team, but your commerce system is a complete failure. Starting day one, buying/selling has been an unrelenting chore. I hope you all realize how many people quit the game in the beginning simply based on the poor commerce system. A couple of things that really stand out...
1. The fact that a large number of players are unable to sell their stuff because the Uldah wards are full. I personally have not been able to get a retainer in Uldah over the past three weeks. Furthermore, 90+% of players don't even check the Limsa Lominsa or Gridania Mercantile Houses. Those of us not fortunate enough to have a Uldah retainer are screwed. I personally have a few million left before I'm out of gil. If I'm unable to get a retainer in Uldah before that runs out then I will be forced to quit because the tens of millions worth of materia, gear, materials sitting on my retainer are worthless without buyers.
2. Search results only show the 10 lowest priced of a given item. The most popular materia will have between 30-100 selling at any given time, so the 10 lowest priced will be the lowest quality. This means that we have to resort back to running through the wards checking each retainer if we want to buy a high quality version (ie INT IV +20). Oh and for those of us without retainers in Uldah means we are probably in LL or Grid. Sucks for us!! Because we would have to teleport to Uldah just to see what those higher quality materia cost.
Final question.... What was wrong with FFXI's Auction House?

Doesn't it have blind bidding? Never played XI but if it does, then that's what's wrong with it.
