Guild Wars 2

I need 100,000+ Zhaitaffy so I will need to place 400 buy orders and will take me 6 weeks to so. Is there any other way to place larger orders? :s

It takes literally 3 seconds to make a buy order… and you can make more than one at a time for the same item… but I hope you’re not buying them to trade for the wings since those are like 4g on the tp

Because 250 Is Anet’s Favorite Number.

I don’t mind the clicking its just how I have to put in the amount I want to buy and the price every time, I wish it would remember it untill you closed the TP window so I can just spam “Place Order” and no I don’t want it for wings…its for the food buffs.

cause 250 is the maximum stack size for any one item. why you cant order 1000 and have the TP automatically split it up into four stacks of 250 is not understood by me

Their backend even limits you, so you can’t even make a direct request above 250. Not sure why they would limit it like that, since placing an order for 1000 items is easier to process than 4x 250. The only actual reason I can see for limiting it is to give everyone a chance, so that 1 person doesn’t have an entire chunk to themselves. This allows other people to place their orders in between the person that is placing multiple orders, for an actively traded item of course.

Unlike selling, buy orders aren’t throttled and can be placed outside of the game. By browsing the trading post through <insert web browser> using the game’s session key, you can easily run a simple script to place multiple buy orders instantly.
