Asynchronous Trade FAQ

"
Huge W overall, but I'm quite confused by having to price each item individually because of the impossibility of set tab buyout. In fact, it will lessen the cheapest items available because who will be likely to set 1 ex on a bunch of items one by one.

For example, past week one, no one is keen to sell a 1ex Unique with the traditionnal trade.

But if you can't dump it in merchant tab with 1ex tab-buyout, you wont ever list it manually either, because the time for the process to do so isn't worth an 1ex.

By a matter of fact, it should lessen the availability of some of most common Uniques or leveling rare for example.




That's probably GGG's goal. If everyone just dumps all their cheap items in 1ex tabs, it would just devalue every common item to worthless. The way they've implemented it, an item is always going to be at least worth the time it takes to set a price.
AMAZING!!!!!!!!!
Hey loving this! Quick questions?

The buyers are going to go to the same instance of Hideout that I am in or the system creates a new one? Just concerned about the possible griefing and bothering people.

And I understand the concept of 'you need to buy a merchant's tab to use the system'. But it wouldn't be better to at least give like a mini tab of something like 40 slots to people who don't have them? If the goal is to encourage the use of the system I think that a mini tab would be the best way to do it, on top of that is a nice helping hand for newer players who don't have the tabs.

Lastly, couldn't you make it in a way where the premium tabs that you convert to merchants are still normal premium on the first game. Since we don't know when this will be added in the first one, isn't converting a tab kinda deleting it until the release of this system?
Also, couldn't you do the same for SSF leagues? Because it will be pretty much deleting the tab in those leagues.
Overall great stuff very confused by the conversion to merchants tabs making them unavailable in SSF. Previously if I bought a premium tab to participate in the old trade system I still had that tab in SSF, why are merchants tabs not behaving the same with the new trade system?
finally and thank you, but i have to say, it's 2025 and it's half made, i hope it's only a test for now and not a greedy move, not removing the trade website, forcing people to choose between premium and trade tab, some will just not convert and you going to be forced to do the old way, killing all the purpose, but it's an evolution
give us an option for splitting quad tab into normal size tabs too then. i only have it for trade
is possible to use 2 currencys as the price? like 1 Divine 70 exalted If is possible is a great system in the current people add wrong values in the trade windows
So, I'm assuming I can convert as many premium tabs as I want for free, right? I'm also assuming I can do this once it hits POE 1, since I'm not interested in playing the beta.

On a side note, pretty scummy to not allow quad tab conversion, just to force people to buy quad trade tabs in the future.
Will the in-game browser have Live Search capability?
Very nice QoL improvements and I'm sure lots more to come. I would also like to see a integrated mirror service option. where u list the item u want to service and the fee, once the fee and mirror are paid u get a copy of the item.

Thanks.

P.S. Please add two factor authentication asap.
Kind regards,

BRJM
