Guild Wars 2

does anet allow we trade something in private? 15% trade fee of black lion is too high for some high price items.

It’s not against the rules but if you get scammed they won’t refund anything (the scammer may get banned though)

If you’re trading with friends, I don’t see any problem with it, but you’d better be sure you trust the buyer, or at least work out a deposit, because you might just be out of luck if the deal goes bad. 15% of a high price item can be a lot, but there’s something to be said for security, too, especially when you’re dealing with such a high-priced item.

So it’s a catch-22 unless you’re dealing with someone you already trust.

The 15% being there is a good thing for the game overall as well… it’s constantly fighting inflation.
