🏚️ 💰 WE NEED AUCTION HOUSE NOT TRADES!!!

need asap
Auction would be sooo much better!!!!! The trade site is aweful.
100% correct.
At the very least, a buyout option for fixed price trade site items. You pay gold + currency direct from your inventory or stash when you click buy, item goes to Alva, you pick it up. Currency goes to seller's Alva, they pick it up. Simple, secure, doesn't devalue premium tabs. Everyone doomed for months about the currency exchange, but guess what? It was a great idea and now currency prices are more stable than ever in PoE1. A lot of the complaints about loot could be fixed up by improving trade accessibility. Just make sure to scale gold costs high enough that you don't want to be buying whole sets of gear at once.

Or, if you wanna get real fancy, drop "trade tickets" in maps (or have some other way of getting them) that can be used instead of gold and can't be traded, so you can control the availability even more tightly. Seriously, there is no reason not to do this except enabling price fixers. You don't even have to remove the other system, just add another one on top like the CE.

Currently: You add item in paid stash in order for these items to appear in Trade website. Player go to trade website, look for items and then send an automatic whisper from the trade website site to the vendor of the item. If player is online you receive an invitation from the vendor, then the buyer needs to teleport to the vendor and then vendor starts trading

Like WTF???? Why we need all that 🤬🤬? The whole process is unbelievably painful in all ways. To say that some of GGG team come from Blizzard Diablo franchise and doing the opposite of what was working in Diablo auction house before. But okay.

Expectation: We need a working auction house IN GAME not an antique Trade website. If I want to sell an item I expect buyers in game to purchase my items already without engaging me in whisper message and then to teleport to me to later start trading.

Stop this madness already and put some resources to build a proper Auction House in Game that works on all platforms. It’s 2025 dam it. We are not in 2000 anymore. Listen to your players and make this happen already 😤

Here is a good read why in 2025 we should have an Auction House:

Its POE 1 Trade, not POE 2. There is no difference or change. Hence why i say this is not POE 2, its just POE 1 expansion.

+1 on either an auction house or simply a “buy now” option.
For a simple starting point, they could make the buy now option opt-in by the sellers. I’m sure the QoL would take off for the selling side, since plenty of them also don’t like having their mapping interrupted
I can't think of any logical reason GGG is against this other than them making money on rmt
Imma try my best here since GGG's unprecedented folding to redditors.

Maybe they realize we don'T want to use 3rd party spyware to trade in their game LOLOOL

Because they literally have it in their chinese client and can actively see it completely butcher the economy over there. Still possible to happen now without it, but at a much slower rate that can be corrected.
Auction house is sorely needed in this game
