Lame ti
tle. But, what if we had a page/shop/list/etc. where we could list what we were buying and for how much, and someone with that item/pet/etc. could click on something and poof, sell it to them? But, like, only if the buyer had the tu in their account somewhere. And then, both would get an alert (so the buyer doesn't freak and go 'OMGWHERESMYTUAT?') And it would be editable, so if the buyer was no longer looking for that item, or if they were saving for something, they wouldn't have to deal with having multiples/losing all their goal tu.

I dunno. Just a random thought. Whaddaya say?

This sounds like a complicated Wish List, and we already have those.  And I can imagine all the accidental clicks and "NOOO I didn't want to sell my Omni egg for that little!" type situations.  It's really a good idea, but no support here.  Sorry.

I hate hearing the exuse that people might do something accidentally. I really do. I wish people would stop using that excuse to hinder things. If people actually payed attention they wouldn't get into that situation. People accidentally accept trades all the time. That doesn't mean we shouldn't have a trade pets feature.

I don't really support though. It would be a nice idea, but it would be too hard to keep track of everything unless there was a limit that you could enter on how many items you could buy (like you could enter 500 'drindian eggs" or 1 " drindian egg" and once that number is filled it would lock out so people can't sell you any more...

 

It seems a little complicated though. I think this is what we have merchant shops for. xD

And threads in the advertisements board, too. If you post that you're trying to buy something, pretty soon someone should notice and sell you the thing.

It's much easier to keep your thread bumped up, too. Something like this seems like it'd prob'ly end up like the item auctions. They don't really get all that much use, because it's easier to work out a fair deal when you can talk to your buyer.
