Guild Wars 2

I wish ANet would scrub all the orders placed below the minimum sale price (merchant price + BL overhead) of items and block people from placing orders that are below that minimum price. It offers no advantage to the person placing the order and is annoying when you go to sell items. I’m sure it also takes up data resources on their server too. Scrubbing and blocking would be a win win for everyone.

I would also like to see the ability to adjust the price of an item you have listed on sale without taking it out and re-listed it.

They already block people from making orders below min price. Everything on there now are just leftovers from before the implemented that limitation.

As for cleaning out the old orders… pretty sure Anet has said before that it’d be a lot of trouble for virtually no gain, since the below-min orders aren’t really bothering anything and they’d have to implement some potentially complex code to remove it all.

Adjusting the price of items without relisting would actually be a bad thing for the overall economy, since people could just flip-flop their offers and items with the market with absolutely no cost. And it would make undercutting an enormous problem. Having a tax associated ensures that people are putting up items for reasonable prices (for the most part) and reduces the amount of undercutting.

They could hide the below min orders from the players view. That should be easy to implement. Another thing they could do is instead of doing one big batch purge they could do the clean up an item at a time as the player is pulling up the item to list. Most would hardly notice it since there is already a delay and once it’s purged there wouldn’t have to do it again. In a short time it would get rid of the bulk of them. The player would be part of the routine to select the items for removal which would save processing time on the servers.

The Devs did a purge not long ago. Obviously, not every item was caught. Perhaps, they will do another some time…soon.

Good luck.
