Guild Wars 2

Not sure if I can explain this well, and probably would be better to link screenshots but I’ll try words first.

When I use the Sell Items tab in the TP each item I click shows 2 pieces of data: highest buy order and lowest sell order. This is fine but it doesnt reveal all the current sell orders. This results in it being better off to search specifically for that item in the “search trading post” tab since I’d rather see all current sell orders.

For anyone that gets what I’m saying up to this point, you probably also run into the same problem: you’d rather see the most accurate current sell order price of an item. It doesn’t help to know some guy listed 6 vials of blood at 1c more than the highest buy order. It helps way more to know that the current difference between a buy and sell order on an item like the example given is, say, 60 copper.

This goes for other differentials that are the result of some degree of undercutting. I’m happy to wait for an item to sell, but I’d still like to price it competitively.

I’m confident I’m using the menu as best as I can to figure out the info I need to set a price, but if I’m wrong has someone found a better way to use the UI?

Let’s say I want to sell something, right? The price on the TP after searching doesn’t give me enough data to know if I’m getting hosed or not at that price. So here is what I do.

I open the TP, open my inventory, right-click on the item and click “buy more”. The screen that pops up shows me the current sales and then I can click on custom order to see the price difference between the highest buy order and the lowest sell order and then go from there.

I only use the Sell Items tab in TP when I already know I’m selling the majority of my inventory and I know all the prices or I don’t care what the prices are, I just want to get rid of the items.

Does this work for you?
