I LOVE the new marketplace and thank you so much for honoring a long running request of many Menewshens!
But can we have a way to look at more then one page? That way if I go to "cheapest" I could find more then eggs. I'm not sure how much coding it would take to make it so I could skim through pages for cheap commons, but if it's an easy add I would really appreciate it.
Also could we be able to search for just commons, like with the CI's? I'm sure I'm not the only one who would rather give my gold to another user rather then the store.
Again I am very thankful for the marketplace, and forgive me if there's an official feedback thread for it, I only saw the FAQ

Yes yes yes. Would LOVE to be able to just search commons...that's my biggest complaint really...I don't know what's in the MP, so I don't know what to look for, so with commons, I have to keep searching and selecting items over and over just to find they're not in the MP at all...so annoying!!

I love the marketplace. I've been bidding on auctions since it came out, and it's wonderful. :drool:
I would like to see more than one page, as well. I often skim through the marketplace to look for pretty shinies (AKA: Items I like :lol: ) to add to my quest thread. I'm curious to know if there is a bid maximum? Like, can we only bid on ten items at a time, or not? Or just until we're broke? :XD
I think I like the "Recently Released" tab the best. Since I often skip out on events, but I do like the items, it's been difficult to try and find them all if they haven't been added to the Price Guide list yet. So, that tab saves me a lot of time :D
TL;DR = It's awesome and I love it :heart:
EDIT;
I'm currently bidding on fifteen different items, so I'm thinking there's no limit xD;

I said it before but I'll say it again, they need a "Next page" button. I agree with the adding a common tabs too. That would be pretty awesome. Other than that, I find it awesome.

I'd like if the Auctioneer tells you exactly what item it is you were outbid on, when he PM's you. Makes things a lot easier for those bidding on a lot of items xP

It does, click the store link and it'll take you to the exact listing so you can re-bid.

Oh yea, you're right :ninja: Nevermind then. :heart:
----------
What about the bidding? I think there's an error or something o.O I just put a bid on two different items, for 410 each. When the page auto-refreshed, after confirming the bid, the price on the items were 510. I thought the MP was free for three months, to use?
And it seems to change too. Some items add on an extra 10 gold, sometimes 100. Why is that?
EDIT;
Read over the FAQ, about bid incrementing...but I still don't really get it. ><
P.S: jellysundae: could probably update the FAQ topic about a marketplace now :yes:

The reason why it adds an extra amount of gold and the extra bit being different is because that's what the seller wants their buyers to increase their bids by (at the minimum amount).
For example, for the most part The Auctioneer has his minimum bid increment set at 25. That means that if someone wants to outbid someone on the Blue Gow, they must do by at least 25 gold. They can bid as much as they want to, as long as it's 25+ gold. It was decided that for larger auctions, it would be less irritating to the bidders if they didn't have to raise their bid because someone was playing it safe and only increasing their bid by 1 gold or something. Other sellers may feel that an increase of 100g is more fair to the other bidders, and so on.
The Marketplace "price" listing shows the price someone would have to bid to be the highest current bidder. So it takes the current high bid and adds the minimum bid increment. So if the high bid on the Blue Gow was 450g, it would show the "price" as 475g, because of the 25 gold minimum increase.
Did I explain it better than the FAQ or did I just make it more confusing by over-explaining how it works?

You explained it much better, I think. Thank you CK. I was never good at anything related to math. :lol: :heart:

Why does the Marketplace add on extra time after someone bids on an item? I noticed that when I was going for the Bleeding Hearts Boa. Every time myself or someone else put a bid in the time increased. That was annoying to say the least, I was trying to sneak my bid in at the final 30 seconds to win xD
My suggestion would be to not add another minute or so at the end.

That's the point. So no one can snipe last minute to win, it's not fair to other people. It adds an extra two minutes so people don't wait until the last second to sneak in a bid.
If someone bids within the last 60 seconds, it adds on an additional 120 seconds.
Quote:
3) Is there anti-sniping protection?
Yes. To prevent sniping, if a bid is made within the last 60 seconds of the auction ending, the auction will automatically be extended a further 120 seconds.

From the FAQ.
