That would get rid of one of the biggest annoyances i.e. having to go into every shop to find that one elusive item (which is always going to be in the last shop you look in and even then has a higher markup than the auction so you've just wasted half an hour or so of hunting time where you could have been throwing money at MA). |
This is the reason I do not even bother going to the malls anymore. It takes forever to go through and see what is for sale at what price. The reason malls work in the real world is you walk around and see stuff for sale you may not have thought of. I want a shirt. there are 27 million different types, colors, cloths, prices, sizes, patterns etc... The choices are darned close to infinite, so I may see something I like that I never saw, or concieved of, before. This is not true in
EU. The items are limited. If I want Laser rifle, based on my skill level, there are really only 3-6 choices. I know what the stats are already from Entropedia. All I need to know is who has it in stock and at what price. Until there is a way to search a mall quickly for the items in stock and at what price, they will never compete with the auction.
