Trade guggestion

Hello everyone.

I have a suggestion considering "Trading".A lot of players that are posting items for sale are not responding to whispers,but those same players are refreshing their sales every 5-10min and never sell.Price on those item these players are selling are almost always the cheapest ones.
Im not sure of why they are donig this but if i had one guess i would say that they do that to undermine the market values and sales,and that leads to market instability,and other player spending time on web browsers for nothing while he could be actully playing the game!

So considering this above I have a suggestion wich would hopefully help in solving this problem,(And I say problem couse I consider this to be a big problem in game).

1.Limit the ammonut of items player can sell per day.(Account limit,not character limit).
2.If player is not respoinding to a whisper provided via web trade site within one minute resoults in removing specific item form the Trade Market,and it needs to be re-aplyed for trading.
3.Items have daily trade limit and 3-5 trade charges.For exemple:Same item can be put up for sale max 3-5 times a day.Re-applying the item removes one charge on item.Charges are reastored every 24/h.

I belive this would help and i think its worth to give it a shot!


Kind reggards and good gaming.

Coming from years of playing WoW myself, all of these problems are solved by implementing an auction house. If someone low ball posts something on the POE trade site now to mess up prices and not respond, then that item can stagnate there and the player is not penalized for their degenerate behavior.

If someone low ball posts something on an auction house, then it is immediately fair game for anyone to come along and snipe it with the low ball posted buyout price. After all, if you post something on an auction house, you DO intend to sell it, right? Of course.

But hey, we can't have nice things in POE. It took GGG 10+ years to implement a basic currency exchange. If our society doesn't collapse first, it will take them another 10 years to implement an auction house that WoW had in 2004.
Played WoW myself and,Yeah wow auction is the way to go.But i dont think they will ever take that path.
