Would love to start buying exotic stuff now, but I’m not going to buy something if I don’t know what it looks like.

I know ANet have said they’re working on a preview for the Trading Post, but does anyone have any further info on this?

Yeah plz, any news on this would be great.
Having just bought a new suit of armour that looks horrid I would appreciate a chance to preview all future purchases!

I played with one of Arena Net’s directors yesterday and he said “regarding TP preview, watch this space soon”. Which can mean anything, of course…

I really don’t understand what’s keeping them; they clearly already have the ability to invoke the “dressing room” window from the chat window links’ context menu, so it should be trivial to add it to the TP’s context menu as well. I guess it’s some issue in the interaction between the “game” engine and the browser engine that renders the TP.

Also, it would be nice if the character would assume a different pose in the dressing room; most weapons tend to become invisible under the armour, so the preview option is useless for those.

Thanks for that info. Unfortunately, like you said, “soon” really doesn’t mean much.
