For the love of God do something about trading

A lot of "players" don't respond to the trading request even though they've listed the item for sale, I'd understand if this was happening with low value currency or something but it's happening a lot in endgame with extremely valuable currency, or even worse, they put a price in the site but ask for another (higher) in game

So please, put an auction house in the game already i'm begging you..

Yea im tired of this too. Tired to whisper 100 people and get no response, either make trading where buyer gets item without sellers interaction or do something with sellers. Ban them, block them, whatever. Whats the point to even have this?

I really hoped poe2 would be better, but nope, same old stupid BS like poe1.

Im honestly out, played a bit...not going back.

the problem with trading is the players, both sellers and some of the buyers (FYI you can block those that list low with no intention of selling)

The fix isn't an auction house, because WoW has the same issue of clicking to buy an item and it being sold/unlisted and that is on a tiny server compared to the world wide hundreds of thousands of people that GGG would need to deal with not to mention bot's sniping items so they can price fix (the currency AH seems to have avoided this due to sheer volume of things)

Played FF14 for 13k hours , they sell shit from boards, it works way better than this low effort trade shit show.

Your argument is: WoW has the same issues with clicking to buy an item....

What exactly is the issue you argue with? Bots sniping items to pricefix and WoW has an issue with AH.

Man you have wild fantasies :)

Last Epoch showed how you can handle proper Trading.

GGG think trade old way is cool in fact i tryed craft stuff for 20 days ( for testing) before realizing craft is a waste and start to trade, it's too much random and low tier useless rolls, whit 4-5 ex i can get stuff i can just dream whit this gatcha craft system.
But buyng stuff from other just seem like using cheats, i mean i slowly lost interest in farming.
this way i geared in 2 days saving 50+ exalts

I'm satisfied with you for trade with the auction.

And i provide example for Guild Wars 2 where sheer volume prevents price fixing. So your argument falls off and since blizzard is stupid and use separate servers - you have situations like this. One huge economy is a solution. Guild wars has it and poe has it.

We have currency trade in poe - did it broke anything? Nope.

And for those scared it would "somehow" take fun for you, dude - whats the difference if i get items directly from a person or from auction house? I will tell you what, way more people would be able to do stuff because of items/currency they gained. Scary thing.

After all, if people would actually respond to whispers, this discussion wouldnt even exist.

Sure there are some price fixers that don't want to sell at all but most of the time it's simply not worth it at a certain point. If I'm in a blight for example or I do a simulacrum or a lab run I will not sell anything even when I listed it with the intention of selling it. I only sell when I'm mapping or when I'm crafting or I'm in my hideout. And yes I know it's my fault because I often simply forget to do /dnd.
