Look at WoW, we can see each item by each player just like FFXIV, what's the difference? Each server that has merged shares the same universal Auction House. Items on WoW Sell INSTANTLY 99% of the time. Even old items from when the game first came out that barely have any use. Why? Because we see who the competitors are which allows for the supply and demand to figure out the price organically. There is nothing organic about the FFXIV economy. It's volatile and a pain to sell almost anything on, I'm assuming the newer content is easier but this is still an issue.

I want a free market and would never ask for that to be changed. All I'm saying is that we deserve to see the ACTUAL price of each item, going by the tools that the game gives us does NOT cut it. Our server price is all we see, that price means NOTHING when selling. What matters is the prices from EACH server. And if you're going to sit there and demand i go to the 20+ other servers just to find the actual price of each item in 2023 then you need to do your own research on why that is too much to ask for.
So please allow us to get real-time prices.

You could fully merge all server marketboards, allowing us to see EVERY single item no matter what server is selling it. Which allows us to buy/sell from anyserver.
OR
Do what i said above and instead of each server/data center, you just combine all servers on that specific data center. I'm on Primal, so only Primal would share their marketboard.

There are other options idk.

We need this in the game DESPERATELY, i personally think it will make the game so much better. Now i don't even get excited when i get items because i know it's going to be such a PAIN to sell. I really hope someone from Square Enix sees this and at least let me know what you think of this and why you agree or disagree with it.
