I see how autobuy in auctions is basically exactly like ranchers. But, I never suggested the idea for it to hurt business for ranchers. But if we're going by that, that it would undermine ranchers, then why don't we take out the autobuy for item auctions? No doubt merchants might be feeling the same way that you can get a retired squishy for under 100k with not even a single bid. Most people go to auctions because they either think the ranchers or merchant are overpriced and go for a shot to get a pet in auction that's thousands of tu off the price, or sometimes millions.

I've put a list of pros and cons in about five minutes, and no, I'm not listing the pros because I want the idea to get through. I had an open mind about this. The pros and cons are both opinion-like-ish? /shot

Pro
-Would clean up auctions a bit/lot
-Would be optional, you don't have to use it
-People will most likely earn profit quicker
Con
-Would act like a rancher shop
-May or may not have a huge effect on the economy, but I'm guessing it will have effect, may be good, or bad
50%
-People would be able to get pets for cheaper. [that's more of a pro, and besides, we can't possibly have a winning side on about cheap auctions, it's the owner's decision and we cannot control it]

total support i had actually thought of this too i mean since you have auto buy on the items auction... and i dont really see how this would hurt your shop because there is only one winner and the others have the option to go to your shop especially if you post in the sales area that you have that same pet up for sale
