Please explain what we are winning by buying premium stash tabs?

30 minutes for each item to be available to poe.trade is 450 minutes , thats 7 hours and a half. This player is 7 hours and a half behind reaching his goal and effectively race against the premium dude that has the same build and the same time and the same knowledge.

no, this does not fly. It's very rare you'd have to wait 30 minutes before you can actually post the next item. You usually dump 5 or more items in there after farming and have to wait 30 minutes. Hell you could post 30 items at once, and it would still take only 30 minutes to update

This is a non-argument.

you can trade for free without paying anything. just go to website and trade. or do it ingame.
stash tab trading is optional.
it has got benefits, but frankly, skins on a char has benefits too. ppl look more at you and you look cooler. more stash tabs are better, everything you can buy is better to have than not to have.
that is the principle of goods. they have to be of advantage or else noone would buy it.
what i want to say is: this game is fcking cheap dont complain.

The main problem is not stash stabs, money spent or anything. The problem is a very bad trading system in the first place. It GGG how long to do anything with TRADE? Now first wave hits and only thing they developed was to use Premium stash to install what most people are using? How is this an improvement?

Faster for posting in shops? Anyways. I just hope GGG 2nd wave is way better then this. I don't use 3rd-party sites at all. Nor spam that god awful Trade channel. I just post a couple things on the board and go mapping.

Happy Gaming (or not) =)

It's an improvement in two ways.

1. It reduces the dependence on third-party sites and especially on third party apps(and the resulting security issues).
2. It lays the groundwork for future additions.

As you said, this is only the first wave, so don't expect it to fix everything by itself. It may not be enough on it's own and it's certainly LONG overdue, but at least it's something.

True. I just hope it gets better for all those making such a big noise over it.

Thank you for the clarity =).

its an indirect p2w system which i don't feel is bad.

however i do feel GGG is being a bit flexible with their policies regarding p2w

All this "p2w" is silly. You can easily win without running a shop. Easily. Running a shop is a job... not winning.

The context isn't relative to something else but rather itself. If it weren't then something like game of war couldn't be considered p2w.
