I Want The Old Trading Post Back!
I would much rather they fix the bugs out of the new trading post than to revert back to that abomination e use to have.
Be careful what you wish for, Anet might just give it to you “HoT”

I just changed equipment on 1 of my characters.
Using the old trading post it would have taken 1-2 minutes tops.
This new one took me 10 mins+. Its utter kitten!
Since the new TP is, erm, new, it will take some getting used to.
I wouldn’t, ahem, trade the currently tarnished version for the old TP. When selling or buying, I can see all other offers. I can filter my transactions (historical or current) by rarity and key word. It’s a lot easier to sell some types of items. Best of all, it loads quickly.
Admittedly, there are too many bugs and inconsistencies. Let’s give them a few weeks to address that and then revisit the idea; I bet most people will change their mind about wanting the old version back.

Old TP sucked. New TP was very easy to get use to and only took me a couple minutes at most to figure it out. We have a lot more categories for buying items, such as a new ‘Back’ item category, being able to choose character level, armor weight, armor stats, etc. I like it way better this way.
There’s something charming about rangers.
I like the new TP to a certain extent as there is no doubt that the searchable filters are a nice addition but for the life of me i can’t place a buy orders to save my life.. It’s driving me insane! GAAAAH!
The most aggravating thing about buying and selling is quantity setting issues. Before there was an automatic mechanism to create a sale order on excess that wasn’t bought by the highest bidder (yes I know it always created a sell order rather than selling first to the high bidder) or automatically select all the sellers to fulfill a buy order regardless of unit price or automatically create a bid if we are buying more units than the lowest seller has. And that’s aggravating.
Lack of a match our current low selling price is annoying.
The limited history is very, very annoying. Especially that large orders come in dribs and drabs and suddenly you only have a day’s worth or less of history.
Identical items use to stack in the TP but now due to the “show by backpack/bag” is now not being done which makes the lack of my lowest price for this item even more annoying. If we don’t select any bag, then collapse the list. And while you are at it, listing the invisible bags on the left is a waste since selecting them will show you nothing, which is the point of them being invisible in the first place. Really, couldn’t filter them out eh?
Filter is great but need to be a bit more sticky. It’s a bit annoying that switching between armor and weapons for example resets the rarity filter. You assume we want profession to be sticky, why not level range and rarity?
We are heroes. This is what we do!

Recently in new update they added a new trading post. I do think its great, but its more laggy and when I buy mats or items it takes forever to get them. When I sell items i dont get any gold back. The Old trading post will give you the items instantly, and i would enjoy it after. Sometimes when i want or need items i look at the trade post, Error. I cant see anything most of the time, and some of my friends can never seen it. I enjoyed the last trading we had, it was much easier to get the stuff we want. I want the old trade post back! Please ANet…
Nobody seems to have mentioned this but it looks like the OP is failing to understand the difference between buy orders and sell orders.
If you want your item instantly, you need to choose from the list on the right. These are people who are willing to sell you the item right now so you don’t have to wait. The other list is if you want to pay less and wait a while to get your item.
If you want to sell your item instantly, you have to choose from the list on the left. These are people who want to buy your item right now. Again, the other list is if you want to put your item up for sale and wait a while for someone to buy it.
It’s not totally clear if this is what you’re complaining about, but it seems possible.

It seems like it that is what he is complaining about. He doesn’t understand the left and right of the new TP because if he did, he would know it is faster.
It seems except for the bugs, most of this complaints can be summed up as, I don’t like change. In a few weeks they will probably get over it.
