Sorry if this has been mentioned before. I don't read this board all that often. Just thought this would be a nice addition to the game and it fits nicely into merchant.
A specialized vendor just for auctions. There would be no sale limit, unlike the bazaar auctions.
I would prefer to havesomething for others to auction their stuff on your vendor as well. Obviously some comissioning fee could be involved.
I don't like the idea of mixing auctions and sales though. I really think this should be a vendor on its own. As a customer I would hate to have to scroll through pages of items just to find 2-3 auctions.
This game is missing something for high end sales.
An option that must be included if this would be implemented.
Some way to prevent sniping. Either a time added to the end of the auction(like no bids for 10 minutes and the auction closes). This could also be implented using proxy bidding(at least I think that is what it is called). Say I would bid up to 200k for something, but it is currently at 10k. I would bit 15k and then the vendor would automatically bid for me up to 200k if I were outbid.
I put it at Master Merchant because I don't want to see these all over the place. I don't mind having the ability for others to auction their wares on them, but I don't want to see one of these in every shop I go to.
