Bazaar webpage

I might be in the minority, but I loved the bazaar from the Luclin expansion. It made buying/selling fun for me. While the bazaar will never make it into the game, I thought maybe a website could be created that is similar. You post what you are selling. And a searchable interface for potential buyers. Would anyone be interested in that?

When I play EQ, I play, I don't want to waste it going afk. If I'm going to waste time, it's going to be at work like I am now =).

I've had success buying and selling wares in the EC tunnel board. A good amount of people visit it.

I think it would be cool to modify the price tracker on the p99 wiki to include WTB or WTS features..

although im still busy just making content for it lol

sometime in the future... no time frame tho lol

The problem is people would have to maintain their inventory outside of the game itself.

People would be more apt to add inventory items, but not necessarily remove them once sold, making for an inventory database that was incorrect.

Bazaar was a major influence in the downfall of EQ for me.

I guess I have to ask why. If the functionality of the bazaar was put into the East Commonlands tunnel, would you still feel the same?

That not a huge issue

can just make any WTB or WTS feature expire in 30 days max.. unless person log back on and reset timer.

but yah .. anybody using a buy / sell data base knows its not 100% accurate.. the way the p99 tracker is currently set up.. doesn't accurately reflect what people willing to pay for something... only show what people selling for

missing half of the supply and demand thingy
