Guild Wars 2

I was listing a lot of wool scraps on the trading post today. Then I looked at my sell order page and noticed this. Despite all the orders being to sell 250 wool scraps, I somehow have two orders which quantities below 250. Meaning that people were buying from one order then, once I placed a second, people started buying from that one before the first order was depleted.

How does this happen if the trading post is running a first in, first out, queue like I keep hearing it does ?

Well, seems like multiple orders from the same user don’t have a particular order. But order from different users should follow the FIFO concept.

You know how the trading post says something like x for sale from y sellers ?

Each of my orders counts as a separate seller in there. Meaning that count can’t see that my orders are all mine. If that count can’t, why would another part of the trading post be able to ?

I saw that it counts you as different sellers when there are people that put their orders inbetween of yours.

For example, if you are putting up several stacks of 250 ore at the same time than someone else, you will count as two, three or more sellers.

But if you put up those blocks and you are the only one at that moment that puts things up, it only counts you as one.
