Actually with teleportation I would have no need of a truck.
With the instant teleport granted in EU why would there be a delay?

The items you find at the auction (irl) have been delivered to the site before hand too. In EU if we loot a nice part of rare armor, we still need to take it to the auctioneer. Once there you are generally right next to a storage bin (which is itself a teleporter of sorts) or near a tp to take us to properties.


"with what you say you are actually saying you are more used to shops.. where you walk in.. look at everything there.. and then decide what you want.. more like a "farmers market" then anything.. not a global auction house with free instant teleportation service"

Nope. Its a competitive auction. No price fixed. If the auctioneer starts out too high, no one bids and he/she lowers the opening bid. No buyout either, and the auctioneer does not want one as they make a % off of the final price. My point is at the farm auctions I'm used to, you take possession immediately on paying your wining bid. If in real life we could teleport items, why wait to deliver them?
