The current ward system also does not really help players who want to find the best deals on common items. Who likes sorting through 24234134 retainers to find the best deal on crystals?
There's a Search engine for a reason!

Also, im not a huge fan of having each city sectioned off from each other with the market wards. An Auction House could help to tie everyone together without having a huge overflow of retainers in the wards.
Ishgard could do as the main stream of the wards, who knows =)

In my opinion, an Auction House system would do great so long as they implemented a delivery system along with it. Being able to visit one place in each main town and easily search through the available goods other players want to post is a great help to players. After you finish all your shopping (no zoning, just searching for the different items you want to buy) you can just head down to your mog house or the local mailbox and pick up your goods.
... Sorry, I couldn't resist =D

The AH system is just much easier than the market wards. At least it is in my opinion.

Thanks!
Thank you for replying at least!

Everything you wrote is right, but I wouldn't substitute a system in a 50/50 situation. If I recall it correctly, Yoshi-P said that he wanted to implement an AH, but infos are really low, so for now we have to stop being some lazy asses and start searching in the wards like everybody do.

Who knows! Maybe the AH will search through the Retainers in Eorzea. We'll see what SE comes with their minds =)

Ah, and use the Search system more. It seems that it's not common to you, but with that you can easily seek the best price for anything. Just practice that a lil' more!
