What do you mean we don't need an AH?
Yes, i agree that AH buying has been improved with the search feature. Selling however, is still a major pain, frustration and a seriously unwarranted timesink that offers no value.

Ideal design requires minimal time to do your purchasing/selling. Anything that consumes hours as has been stated by many players, esp. those who who are more involved in the economy, is ridiculous. I as many others don't even bother using marketward for selling coz it's too much of a stupid timesink, many of us just resort to vendoring instead. We need an easy quick hassle-free system to work with.

This needs to be addressed or the game is simply lacking core functionality.

Enough fixing recipe and crafting changes, no point when the economy/market system is broken. SE, please Stop wasting precious time there and setup the AH already..!
It's been ditched for a whole year now. >.< Surely you're past the "examining AH" stage now.
