The shitshow of poe.trade & co and ppl not responding late in the league

If you don't like trading and don't like SSF i suggest trying other game. PoE has potential, yes. Just won't happen though.

Thats main reason I tried SSF. Whooda thunk I like it better.

when seller not responding to whisper it's not his fault.

I'm one of the map sellers i will give you some example
i sell map tier 11 for 3 chisels for a couple of hours and no one wants to buy my map and then i try to reduce the price to 2 chisels that when shit happened because of i got whisper from 50 people at the same time and everybody is like i want this map and i want that map as well and i also want 2 of that map and i want the quality one bla bla bla bla

and yes i can't reply to most of them i can only sell my map to 3 players out of 50 whisper and then i change maps price to 3 chisels again then no one want to buy my map again.

it's not like i don't want to sell my map to you but i actually can't sell my map to you and why the fuck you guys just don't pay 1 more chisel instead of complaining about get ignore from sellers.

and another problem is i got stuck in maps very often because this game design is against trading like zana map, memory, inclusion, lab, abyss, and buyer like you just can't want for couple minutes or even 20 second



other than a handful of uniques and t16's, i wont even bother selling maps anymore for pretty much these reasons

i play mainly in standard and it becomes a headache real fast, so i just wont list. not worth the hassle, and if i price the low tier crap im trying to get rid of enough to be worth my while to portal back, nobody wants it because theyre all too busy spamming people for the cheapest ones out there and dont seem to be willing to pay a tiny bit more. let somebody else deal with it for all i care. its not worth trying to compete with everybody else just to try to make a couple chisels or an alc

buying low tier maps good god, thats really something else. now if zana were to sell every atlas map for various currency, then nobody would have to put up with this shit, and if people are really looking to sell their shit cheap, then they can list it and deal with all the shit loads of cheapasses who only want to pay peanuts, and nothing more, for all of their stuff.

Another games have auction,another games ban bots (right now trade bots actualy is good because smt only they answer to you if you want exchange currency//when league is dead).Bots is not the undefeatable devil.

This is probably one of the most ridiculous arguments when it comes to AH.

Saying that we shouldn't have AH because of bots is like saying that we shouldn't have a paper currency in real life because it can be forged.
Or that we shouldn't have cars because people will die.

There are risks, some of them more serious than others, but they can be mitigated by a proper design.
GGG has all of the data on their servers, all of the instruments to implement a proper AH and every tool and mean to do it (with leagues, where everything can be tested, fixed, re-iterated till it works.. better than now)

Yet they were busy making up manifestos with virtual problems that may or may not arise (with some of them, quite possibly, blown out of proportions and not being a real issue in practice), rather than putting everything to the test and trying to find a workable solution.

People really need to understand that it might not be worth someone's time to leave a map for a 5 chaos trade. You really need to buy bulk maps to get someone's attention. Trading 20 or more chaos is when people start to get serious.

You can't list bulk items on our awesome trade platform.

Buy 100 maps at a time... not 1 by 1.


This, I so wish that you could list batches/group of stuff rather than single items. Like, 10 maps for x c instead of this 1 by 1 item.

When i buy maps i dont even try with the generated message but modify it saying "i want to buy 10 t15 maps for 60c" hoping that player sells several. More often than not I get a reply.

normal players can't stack maps either, I enjoy destroying maps these days the ones lower 6 I simply don't bother with those anymore if there's any sort of daily there, I will just keep mapping on some higher tiers and pray for a reset or change.

I can guarantee you, if GGG was on a board during the time the credit cards were invented, they would have invented hypothetical issues too.

''People don't need this convenience, it will destroy the economy, hackers will steal your credit cards, you won't have any more interaction, it is bad for everyone!!! '' . This is how GGG sound when they pull their arguments regarding AH.

Basically GGG would be anti-progress and we would still be stuck in the stone age.
I second allowing small values items to be listed under an auction system.
