Not being able to buy single items from a stack on the marketward.

[Aegis]

Being able to just buy one from a stack would be dumb. If you only need one go gather/farm it. You are not required to buy mats from the market. Man people are lazy. This would make gathering worthless to the economy. I always sell stacks for a cheaper single unit price. No one would do that if you could just buy 1 from my stack. This is a terrible idea.

So, if someone doesn't want to buys a stack of 57 shark oil, you recommend he level FSH to 50 and ALC to 40, then fish for 30 mins?

The system used in later stages of V1 was far more intuitive. You could sell large volumes at a discounted rate, but rather than using up 10 retainer slots to sell 10 items, you could use 1. I understand both systems and the pros/cons to each, but I feel the former system is better due to the advantage in flexibility it adds to the market for both buyers/sellers.

There is nothing in this new system you couldn't do in the older one.
