I was wondering, with so many people always trying to sell “Items” in game-play. Is there any way to create a new character that we call “The Auctioneer”? Where anyone can place their items up for sale, with the understanding that the highest bidder gets the item. The starting bid can be half what you would get if you sold the item to the “Merchant” to make it a challenge for the seller. The seller would have to decide if he/she wants to take the chance that the item may go for less, or the seller may get more for the item then they would from the “Merchant“, Or the buyer would get the deal on an item he/she wanted for a lot less. There would have to be a time limit on the item, so the seller can’t just leave it there until they get what they want. Say 2hr. To 4hr, or even 8hr. From the time they place the item up for sale, Till the end of the sale where the highest bidder wins. You wouldn’t want to keep all you coins tided up waiting to find out if you won the item or not, when you could miss out on another item you are interested in if you were out bid in the end. The Auctioneer could call out that an "Auction was about to end anyone interested should look before it’s over", similar to the “Town Crier” I would suggest that you also limit how many items can be placed up for sale at a time. What do you think? Just a thought from the Grayeagle
