ahh i see one thing being annoying makes the entire system bad

one thing being annoying?

- people spam message 18x people so when you insta invite them and tele out to grab said item, they've already bought it from someone else... fun
- buying cheap stuff requires you to message dozens of people till one replies, noone wants to leave a map to sell a 1c item
- buying in bulk = paying a premium unless you want to message everyone and buy 1-3 maps at a time for a regular price.
- can't trade while offline, have to physically be playing the game, and the person that wants the item also has to be online
- look at a meta item you've been dying to buy for 4 days, but the person hasn't been online and your currency you have set aside for buying that item is just doing nothing in your stash
- if you want to buy a new belt and boots, you can't just find 2 that'll fit your uncapped resists and work together nicely, you need to message both people, and if 1 doesn't reply, lmao gl idiot go back and find another combo of 2 that do work together to cap your resists, and just pray that both ppl reply.
- price fixers

shit outdated trade system is a waste of time.

They would have to fix price fixing...
Good luck

sounds like you just want to complain

Sounds like you wanna pretend this shit doesnt happen to you. Or you just dont play poe and wanna troll.

Chris wilson has some secret fetish about player interaction in this game where there is none and uses his terrible trading system as an outlet. Full stop.

Depends on the trade page they are using, also Most people that have Premium Tabs auto set to exact.... and people know, that some people will take/accept offers.
Sometimes lowball, most of the time.. going rates...
If your spamming people for an item, that was listed over 10 days ago, chances are, they are Price- Fixers... who list an item at a low price on purpose. To ruin the economy/market so they can buy it all cheap themselves and resell for a higher price.

They won't add an in-game auction house, because there would be too many bugs, and greatly cause server lag.
That and crashes, as someone might be on japan/EU / usa and try to buy something on the server, and power goes out on 1 of the servers, and then it un-syncs.. and then there would be DUplicate items ect...
Its too much trouble.

and again it would cause major server lag, and we don't need that.

no

trading isnt hard

An auction house system like how wow or D3 would be nice tbh

Sometimes when you have stuff listed under 5 chaos but in the middle of some run isn't worth it, but for having good trade ethics it is

d3 ah was so bad they got rid of it and stopped essentially all trade.
people need to stop thinking d3 ah worked or was good
