    Please allow us to sell X amount of an item multiple times in one go

    I know i gonna say 3 letters that act like a red flag in the FFXIV but i still will

    When i was still playing WoW more then 10y ago i was quite active in the ore, metal bars and cloth market, which depending on your server could be very active markets. Although maybe a little vague by now i do remember that i was able to put alot of stuff on the AH in very little time.

    For example i could chose to put like 10 stacks of 20 mythril ore for 1000g/stack i just clicked post and done my 10 stacks were on the AH and it took me 2min to do it.

    In this game i put on a regular basis certain HQ food needed to complete leve quests often by 1 or 3 but also other items and having to list them 1 by 1 or 3 by 3 + add the price is kind of tedious compared to if like above i could list 10 stacks of 3 HQ Dhalmel steaks for 1000gil/stack in one go

    Might only be me but i would love if something like that could be implemented

    Your answer isn't neither friendly or helpfull. If your goal is to scare away or discourage new players of using the forum. You're winning i guess !! I thought the FFXIV community was helpfull and friendly but it turns out to be even more toxic then the WoW community

    I find having to manually enter multiple stacks for sale tedious too.
    But this "tediousness" isn't unique to the marketboard, it's everywhere in the game.
    And with good reason. Everything you want to do in FFXIV, SE puts delays in to slow down how fast you can do it. Delays like making you run around the map, or wait as an animation of an NPC walks away from a conversation.

    It's all about keeping you online. A fine balance between the value of the little psychological rewards the game gives and the annoyances you have to overcome to get them.

    Also, the need to manually enter each sale:
    • prevents mass accidental sales at the default price -- like listing 300+ Tsai Tou Vounou HW at 40 gil each and closing the sell-item box before you notice, and
    • slows down the people trying to corner the market on something a little.

    Ok ty i didn't see it that way but i suppose it makes sense in the game psychology. I guess i will have to learn to live with it how stupid i may find it. It certainly isn't what keeps me online.
