Add a buy 10 option to rare mat trader
Demonlord Matt
Title pretty much says it all i just think it would be more convenient to buy more at a time

If we already have an option where we can select how many we want for other items there isn't really a reason why it shouldn't be added for rare mats.

The entire trade system in this game is so clunky and cumbersome. If anything needs to be done it, it is a total overhaul not just time wasting band-aids.

Better yet why can't we have buy X amount for both rare and normal materials button. Would be much easier than having to buy the same item like 12 times to get the right amount.

because the trader price is set by people buying and selling you cant buy in multiple volumes, what if the price were to change after the 5th item you bought, you would buy 5 at one price, 5 at another, not sure how you could get around that

I'm all for not having to buy one rare crafting material at a time.

been mentioned before, /signed again, they'll never do it anyway.

Blindingly obvious upgrade
Its been needed and requested for years and it hasn't happened yet.
My guess is either its too time consuming to program in or the company just doesn't want it included.
Yes the price is determined by market forces but that's not a problem just think of how a real transaction would occur.
Traders would be more than happy to sell in bulk and might even offer a discount for quantity, then adjust the price later on according to the rules of supply and demand.
Simple answer is if buying or selling 1 rare material has x effect on price then the effect of 10 such items is 10x or whatever formula they want to use.
Such price effect to take place after the transaction is finished.

this was suggested before and I remember it not getting that great of a reception.
I however think it would be useful. Many times I have to buy mats from trader only yo have to request quote buy request quote buy. gets annoying.
As far as the prices changing when people buy items so what...Let people buy x amount at the quoted price. It can then go up after. Not a big deal.

You'd think they'd have done something about this a long time ago.

Maybe I can finally buy/sell more than just one rare material at a time. Would also be great if it could be toggled or changed so you can buy up to 10 at a time. (Then maybe if they make it happen they'll consider it for dye traders as well.)

Material prices changes the more your buy.
It will change if you yourself buy a large number of materials, so I think that's why they won't sell rare materials in 10s or allow an X number.

Yes x 1,000. Maybe for every X amount you buy the price increase Y% to prevent abuse. While we've seen that it's mostly impossible to spike the price of a Rare Material, a small amount of preventative action could be in place.
But seriously, this has needed to happen for a long, long time.

Trader prices adjust when people buy and sell, rare adjusts with each item, so if you can choose how many you want to buy, you can buy a bunch at once at the low price then sell once at the high price.
I know you can't buy 999 ectos at 4k a piece i'm just making a point.

Price is less trouble than having to click hundreds of times.
We should be able to ask the npc to sell or buy a specific amount of items.
The npc will then try by reiteration to sell or buy such an amount of items, one item at once.

If you need 13 Steel ignots(or w/e). You need to buy 20. So you got 7 spare ones.
They can better say how many you like to buy.
So :
Steels Ignots [13]x ???? Gold
That would be better, otherwise you will throw some money away. You dont use the other 7 steel ignots. Maybe later, but if you can fill in what quantity you like, it would be better imo

Grand Ecto Bailout idea needs a help? /doh
But seriously, an option to buy 10 would be enough (10 times less clicking when bulk buying is a huge improvement), and for technical reasons it would probably need to be selected BEFORE the price quote, so the price was correctly calculated. It's important because of how the prices jump, like the infamous 4,800 -> 5,500 step -- buying 10 at once shouldn't save you whole 6.3k if you bought them when buying 1 would cause price increase to the higher step.
If traders need anything, it would be a better price adjustments engine so they could respond to the market quicker and wouldn't get bought out of an item without significantly increasing the price.
