People still over glorifying the AH system I see. MW and AH are basically the same system, MW lacks literally only 2 features given XIV's current design, 1 if you think about it and that's buying from the search.

Both systems have unnecessary steps
Both systems requires going to a centralized place
Both systems are basically the same.

It's ONLY because other MMOs have an AH that people want one just like other MMOs have jump people want it here. If no MMOs had jump or an AH I can guarantee no one would be glorifying them.
