Authorized Sellers

[Chipaton]

I think there should be a list of Authorized Sellers, or people who you can trust to buy items from. This would decrease the amount of "Jimmy took my diamonds and didn't pay me!", topics that are constantly showing up. Also there could be a list of people who have previously done this so people can have an idea of who to trust. I don't think these people should get privileges other than their current rank. Please feel free to express your opinions on this and thanks for reading!

While a good idea, this would be VERY hard to maintain.

The safest way to buy/sell is at an actual store.  It's unlikely that a player will create a store and rip off their customers.  First, they'll make a bad name for themselves REALLY fast.  Second, the work they put into their store will be wasted after the first couple of customers put the word out that the player is ripping people off.

The most risky form of trade is doing it person to person in a random location.  While ripoffs are rare, they do happen.  Best to play it safe and only buy from either the market, or a player store.

Guys? I used to sell materials/weapons/etc to almost everyone.
I stopped because I changed interests, and I am kind of offline.
I dont have a store, but still I was a seller with queue the buyers.

As I said... "While ripoffs are rare, they do happen" ...We're talking about safe ways to conduct trade.  Yes, you guys were safe to trade with.  Others are not.  If you want to avoid the chance of being ripped off you're best to use Player Stores.

Only takes 5 minuets to set up a shop. Still just a suggestion, appreciate any feedback I get.

Agreed, takes 5 minutes to set up a basic shop.  Then you can use the Trade channel to call players to it.  That, to me, is the best and safest way to conduct trade.  Of course, the better your shop is the more people will be impressed & drawn to it.

Why not just buy/sell from/to trusted? I doubt any trusted would rip you off.

[SpikeyThorn]

Could have it like e-bay, with customer feedback, which counts towards a sellers reliability percentage...

Chances the item your looking for wont be sold by a trusted.

Well this cant be added anyway. Its int he rules to be careful anyway.

Guidelines

5.   Be careful who you trade with, not everyone is trustworthy.

Check back here regularly because there is a good chance more rules will be added as we progress.

Oh really? 99% of the time, a trusted member is on. Most of the time, that trusted will have what you need. If its so rare its not in the market, and no trusted has it, it probably is easier to get it yourself ^^

I can not find several things even when i ask members and trusted people(for exemple a nice enchanted pick) and it is hard to craft it. I think this should not be implemented because it will ruin the game for members and guests. It doesn't mean that only you can get fun from trading just because you are a trusted.

Sorry to be kind of aggresive but i really have fun from trading with other people and I think I'm trustworthy in trading.

When I am selling items, I do it always in the trade channel. I don't have a shop so I deliever it to others. They need to pay me first before they get it. Otherwise I just go away. Never had problems with that.
