This is the reason why some folks suggest commodity boards (which are a waste of time in my opinion). But more over, that's part of the purpose of each servers' trade forums - to make offers for desired resources. And we have an archive that allows you to search for older entries.


Btw, a non-tradeable, non-droppable item can't be vendored.


The flaw with this proposal is that you have no idea how many of these containers will actually be fulfilled by the people that get them, so you have to activate a lot of them probably. Most likely you'll already have spread the word that you want so-and-so resources via the trade forums and ask people to offer the resources to the vendor. This system you propose still requires that same system. I fail to see the value of this proposal that is significantly different than what exists.


There's no time limit on the containers even there may be a maximum accepted amount for the resource.


This system also allows for griefing as people can simply buy youractivated containers and never fulfill them while letting a competitor's containers actually go to the open market.
