Auction house needs to be fixed

I agree with point number 1 only.

Definitely allow people to buy singles from a stack!

Hey, if people want to sell things on the market for 1g that I can sell to a vendor for 2g.. umm.. let em

If I want to sell a stack of something, I want to sell it as a stack. Period. Instead, I would prefer being able to sell more then 20 items - that way I can sell things in stacks of multiple sizes as well as singles.

A thousand times this!

There are a multitude of reasons I may choose to put a stack of items up instead of selling as singles. Often times it simply does not make economic sense to sell certain items as singles; normally crafting materials, etc. The amount of time and effort it takes me to harvest ore, or make ingots, or leather, or growth potions, etc, cannot be recovered by selling the singles unless I jack up the price.... at which point no one is going to buy the material for totally understandable reasons.

Buyers always have the option of farming a material they need for themselves too.

You want to know what I hate? The people who don't check what items are selling for. Oh that item that has been selling for 5,000? Oh I'll put it up for 100 >.> Yeah, you guys suck.

What's worse is when the sell price is nice and stable at ~7500, then some tool decides to try and double the price.. Worst part is the impatient people ALWAYS pay for it...

I'm surprised so many people are agreeing with step 1. As a seller, I think it'd be a huge annoyance to list a full stack of x item and have people pick out individual items from it (meaning I'd no longer have a full stack listed).

It would also destroy any chance of selling a stack at a time for a bulk discount. If you want only a few of an item, you're probably gonna have to pay more per item for the convenience than if you bought a large amount. At least that's what I've always seen happen in both game economies and the real world.

^ I think Aramis above me may have said it better than I did.

But if people can buy singles you will sell that faster than an entire stack, even if people are only buying a few at a time. Assuming you have the lowest price ofc.

That's not necessarily true. If someone buys 15 items from my stack of 99, I now have an incomplete stack of 84 items. So I either need someone to buy my incomplete stack (my personal experience is that this will only happen if I undercut significantly or I'm the closest to having a complete stack), or I need to sell all 84 remaining items individually, as opposed to a complete stack, which only requires a single sale. If you're selling an in-demand item in a complete stack, and pricing appropriately, which means you're undercutting the people selling singles, stacks tend to move much more quickly than if I tried to sell 99 singles.

Obviously, not every item is best sold in stacks, but that should be up to the seller to decide how best to move their merchandise.

I guess I should ask, since I don't know, do we have the option to break up our stacks and sell individual items currently?
