"I realise this could have some setbacks to the merchants as their chances of selling other things that the user wasn't directly searching for are much less likely"
I did mention it ^^
I do realise that the way it is set out now is beneficial for the merchant (Not so much buyer as they may have found something else they decided they wanted but in doing so also spent some tu that they may have not wanted to because they were saving for something else)
I still think that it would come in really handy if this idea were to be implemented into the game. It isn't a flawless idea, most ideas do have their ups and downs, but i personally would love this to be implemented. Although, i guess Merchant's would be less inclined into having this idea become reality as it is less beneficial to them.
I had more to say.. but i have a mental blank atm o_____O so if i remember I will say it later.
