Trading Precursors and other high value items
Trading only makes RMT worse for third parties and causes an imbalance in the economy which would indirectly increase the price of getting gems with gold to an absurd amount.
One of the reasons they cited prior to launch for intentionally not having direct trading was to cut down on scamming. Something that was pretty rampant (at times) in GW1. Considering the number of things that share the same icon image in this game, it would be an even bigger nightmare here.
Yes, some people are going to jump on this as point out that you should pay attention to what’s being traded, and I don’t disagree. However, that’s not going to stop the support tickets about being scammed from rolling in adding more to their workload.
Don’t look at me like that. Whatever you’ve heard, it’s probably not true.

Only idiots got scammed. Just sayin.
Follow the darkness into the depths, it’s more fun than the light can provide.

And I don’t necessarily disagree, as I stated before.
That doesn’t stop it from happening. It only takes a moment of inattention to detail (doesn’t necessarily make the person an idiot, but I’m sure it’d make them feel stupid at least temporarily). And then it’s just ‘one more thing’ they have to deal with.

If you want to avoid the TP fees, just sell it to someone you can trust from your guild, or someone who is a trusted friend. Even better if you sell it to them for a much cheaper price, since that would pretty much make you the best video game friend ever!

So you got an expensive drop and are QQing about TP fees…. Just sell the kitten thing and be happy you are 800g or so richer.

No – there was a flaw in the system whereby you could actually make it seem like you were trading and it taken w/o any remuneration. This went on for more than 1 year, with this flaw.
Saying it was just idiots, is condescending and not helpful to the discussion what so ever.

Tools are there to be used, and if people aren’t smart enough to use them properly then that is their fault. Your comparison to GW1 is a false comparison because you assume that the same “flaw” (poor system design) would be present in a GW2 version if it were to be built. Even if they claim it’s to reduce scamming, a p2p trade system probably wouldn’t ever be implemented anyway due to RMT issues and less gold sinks (it’s intended for you to have to trade the item on the TP).
