As far as I can tell, item listings on the Trading Post stay up indefinitely. Hopefully this won’t eventually cause another collapse of the trading system, but I’m more concerned about how it affects things.
*It allows the TP to be a much cheaper bank upgrade.
*Nothing boomerangs back to the mailbox when it doesn’t sell, it either stays listed or sits in the pickup window. Anything in danger of being sold can just be canceled at no additional cost and it’s still stored for you.
*The lists just get bigger and bigger at a frightening pace.
And what’s even funnier is that there are numerous buy orders for Account Bound items. That appears to be a waste of resources for every party involved.
I couldn’t find any word about trading post time limits. Any savvy individuals out there know the story?
