The Fleamarket

If you are around town, you notice all sorts of people selling things with the trade screen and the trade dialogue tab. While this prooved to be working, it is obviously far from being effective. Instead the game should be equiped with a town (in some obscure corner of the world) in which the players themselves are the merchants. They would get the opportunity to place five items in a special bag (which of course costs a fortune) and tag them with the pricing of their choice.
This town should also have some script analyzing the sales value of items and how common heir are; in order to tell people the bargain value of anny offer they see. In the long run players would be able to buy all sorts of items at reasonable market prices like they do now with runes and dye.
I think of this idea as being god because the element of trade in GW is more important since you quickly reach maximum level but you can always improve or shift your focus by reequiping or reskilling yourself. While reskilling is a matter of seconds, buying stuff can be timeconsuming to say the least.The guildscreen should also give you the chance to give titles to persons, like Senior Sales Representative or so.

They are called "Personal Shops"

Some games have them.... There is a game that is kind of in beta right now, called "Priston Tale," which i played for a while before guild wars... Anyway, they work nicley, and allow you to have a bubble perminatly over your head, advrestising your shop, letting you go do something else while your items sell, and stopping A LOT of spaming.

Ya, that bullbe over your head for you shop works great! I've played Ragnarok Online, and that had the same feature. Boy I LOVED it! Guild Wars HAS to have it.

Sounds good, as long as you can disable the bubbles like you can the chat channels.

If it'll reduce the TRADE spam in the LOCAL chat channels... then I am all for it.

With that system you could pretty much do away with the Trade channel itself. You still might have people trying to sell on the Local channel.
