SO why do we have to trade like savages when this exist?

There is no poe.trade for Xbox. Thats why they can have AH.

Cool. Console gamers are already shafted by using a console instead of a PC, nothing new there.
if people want to search items using filter then they can use poe.trade and if people just want to quickly buy items like maps, trash/leveling/enabler uniques, and bases then they can use the in-game trading system. The point is, more options.
I am completely fine with that. Map/currency are the most painful to trade for.
Can anyone explain me what is so difficult about trading in Path of Exile?

For starters it is not *in* Path of Exile.

Spoiler
Unless you are refering to the Xbox or chinese version. I hear the xbox marketplace still has horrible search functions, among other problems.

1. people are unresponsive to your whispers
2. if they respond, some will change the price if you will buy more not following their listed ratio


This may come as a surprise to some people but disliking a certain feature does not necessary mean you find it hard. It can be too cumbersome, time consuming, annoying to use, breaking the game flow or simply not intuitive.

- you have to use at least 2 third party sites to even start effective trading,
- both on external and "official" trade sites have such delays, item you want to buy is sold long ago,
- if you want to buy something listed for 1,2,3 or 5 c, you have to whisp dozen of people, nothing special, who want to loose portal for such a penny transaction?
- finally, when you manage to get invitation, you are disconnected and kicked from game while trying to go to sellers hideout
- or buyers are kicked, while trying to get to your hideout
- this way everybody wasting time and are pissed off
- although there is no "official" auction house, only way to exchange some larger volume of currency is to flip it with bots.
- you are spammed by offers for 10-30 minutes after item selling
- you cant trade while in: Labyrinth, Delve, Abyss depths and other locations (don't leave or die missions), because you cant leave them without loosing loot/progress or both.

But beyond that trading is terrific, you know, top GGG's achievment :P
