Path of Trading milestone achieved: "price" feature implemented in poe.xyz.is

As many of you know, there are people who have this ridiculous idea that "buyout" means "non-negotiable price, won't accept anything less than it".

Luckily poe.xyz.is recently solved that issue by introducing a new tag: ~price.

Since trading is such a vital part of this game, I figured this is an important milestone to regard.

Sadly, people who happen to try to negotiate are called lowballer/scammer. So, nothing really changes after all.
While were on the subject, can you all stop doing this:

http://poe.xyz.is/search/egomhumiwobono
http://poe.xyz.is/search/abadukarametom
http://poe.xyz.is/search/ahomanogarauna

If you look up an item and see there are dozens of them, all listed for the same price, it's a safe bet no one is actually buying them and they are not worth that price. Don't get all pissy when someone offers you something much lower.

Greed knows no bounds. It was the same in cough*D3*cough, people tried to sell shit legendaries for billions even if they were crap, not that they sold them, mind you.

If only poe.xyz.is would be fully integrated into PoE, that would be so awesome. Almost like an auction-house. Almost.
It's one thing to offer 20 exalts for an item with a 23 exalt buyout. It's another to randomly offer 2 chaos for something listed at 4 chaos.

I'm not trying to message you back and forth over 2 chaos, either take it or don't.

Yeah, there were different opinions about how the "b/o" tag should be used. With the new "price" tag, there is no discussion needed. Which is really great.

Which price are you having an issue with? Alphas sells all day for 4.5ex.
Anarchy/Onslaught T shirt
Domination/Nemesis T shirt
Tempest/War Bands T shirt

If by sell, you mean pile up, then yeah, sure. There are 70+ listed for 4 exalts or more, this means they are absolutely NOT worth 4 exalts, no one is buying them.
