Auction house needs to be fixed

Not that this will matter much, and I'm sure you're not really looking for any particular input from the community but I'll share my opinions regarudless.

1. I totally agree, nothing more frustrating that only needing one or two of a particular item and seeing that only thing is available are stacks and more stacks of said item.

2. I like the active sales, undercutting will be rampant for a while it will eventually simmer down. People are just trying to unload their goods fast. FFXI had this, and a few other MMO's as well, it's just fine. I personally enjoy the competition of finding ways to make gil. Instead of the set it and forget it approach. I also believe it keeps the market place honest, price hikers and under-cutters alike.

3. Nah, no need to set restrictions like that. If someone wants to purposefully lose gil, let them. Or better yet capitalize on their loss by buying their cheap items and selling it to a NPC yourself. Easy money. I mean it says right there on the item mouse over how much it will sell to an NPC. It's profit all around.

4. I've been managing my gear/inventory/mats/armoury/etc with out much difficulty with two retainers. That's 40 selling slots. I'm not sure why I would need even more. What in the world are you making so much of that it either doesn't stack, doesn't sell, made in abundance?

npc price needs to be changed, i think certain nubs... probably from ps3 but not pointing any fingers, are selling items on AH as exact price you can sell them to a NPC... What makes me think this? Well... Look up the allagan pieces... so many people selling them for the same price on AH as NPC price...


Its just like... you're supposed to sell these to a NPC you know... lol, with taxes combined, theyre actually losing money if they ever actually sell...

Had to facepalm when i saw these being sold -_-

Kind of contradicting yourself, and why would you immediately think it's the PS3 players?

[Avengedangel]

Because they would be the only ones that... uhh, are not experienced with MMO's and probably think that the "Sells for" value on the item description mean how much you sell it for on the markets... lol... I always occassionally find things that would be worth 300-400 gil each being rarely put up as 1 gil.. I would assume its these people because PC players have generally played a MMO before. Seriously, go look up the allagan pieces... why are people selling them on auction... i really dont get it..


as for things selling more to the npc than market selling, i do, i constantly check out if there are any being sold below price. And vendor them, even though its helping me i would really like to see people kick the habit of doing this though.. For their sake.

Ever consider that some people that play MMOs on the PC might just decide to play the PS3 version as well (or instead)?

Your statement that "I think certain nubs...probably from ps3" is HILARIOUS. <.<.....

I'm a legacy player, who played on PC, now moved to the PS3. I am VERY frustrated at the people selling things at the NPC selling price. Ever think that those people are just new to the game in general?

I think its people in general don't realize this.
