Would you rather pay for the amount of time your item(s) are in the AH (Ex. 3 hours = 100c, 6 hours = 500c, etc.) or keep the 10% Deduction they take at the end? Personally, i'd rather pay for the hours because it's cheaper. Especially for those who have expensive items on the AH and the deduction takes out a chunk of money - which means we have to raise our prices to get the exact amount we want. What do you think?

EDITED: I left out the part where the amount of coins you have to pay for the time depended on how much you priced the item(s) at. Like a 1k item listed in ah would be 10c for a hour or something but a 100k item would be 100c a hour... Something like that, not exactly.

No one has ever liked the deduction for coins or yc, it never made any sense to take it since it just poofs.. big waste, so yes a flat hourly coin rate on coinsells and reduce yc amount taken would be nice. I think it would encourage more people to sell items for yc which is a win, win for everyone including BVG since someone will be buying the yc.

The POINT of the 10% deduction was "money sink" If the 10% deduction and several other money sinks weren't in place the game would be even worse than it is now. I say keep the 10% tax.

Hmmm.. By sink you mean the coins/yocash completely going away?

That's how things work, in order to keep the economy in balance their has to be a tax on a specific service in order to keep the money from going all "whack" yes that is exactly what i mean. Without one in any game the flux of new money circulating would be tremendous and the game wouldn't last.

I see where you're coming from. However, i know other games that have the time feature instead of deduction and the economy is fine (If you're implying the economy will be worse if we have it). I just thought it'd be good to see it brought here.

Though the prices you present to us aren't anywhere near good enough to keep the money flow in check. If they were to remove the 10% tax on items, but bring in your feature they would have no choice but to add that 10% deduction but in a different form, they might even raise that..who knows.

You technically are still losing money. Ex. You put an item in ah for a buyout of 10m for 24 hours. Lets the 24 hour feature is 1k... After the item sells, You'd rather lose 1m over 1k?

1k For 24 hours is just ridiculous , It is put there for a reason and will most likely never change! this is just another way to mess the economy up even more! Now if they did remove this i could see these rates;

There are just too many things not right about the whole idea, you have to do some serious thinking over it..

I have thought about my ideas.If this is not added, they should atleast reduce the 10% to 5% and also the 1k was serving as an example.

Well it would be best to explain things in fullest detail.

Once again 10% to 5% wouldn't suffice for the amount of coin still circulating. There are people who have HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS, the AH is serving as a way to get rid of some of that to make items cheaper.. The more coin circulating in the game = The higher things are going to become...

Heck i just witness a friggin KEYCHAIN get jacked to 7,5m - 10m !

Number 1 it should be in working condition and not freeze up or loose items.

Hundreds of millions of SAVED coins. Most items are being "jacked" because the people who have them don't want to sell them, don't play anymore, or when it was in stores, no one cared for it so not many were bought. I see nothing wrong with items being millions of coins. You can't have everything you want, ofcoarse, unless you're rich.

Not everyone "saved" these coins..if you weren't here during the FG epidemic SEVERAL people obtained their coins through that.. And i disagree, items are being jacked because when things aren't overly-wanted like retros, or 09 rares.. Priceguides thing it's the perfect opportunity to pricejack something.. and make a quick buck. The item itself was never popular when in stores (The keychain we are on about) So why would we want it now? Because it's worth something (or says the PG's) Now if we were to eliminate some of them coins being put into the game, and people didn't have 100m, 500m, 2b in coins..Then guess what..The keychain wouldn't be as jacked as it is now.. And i never said i wanted anything, i'm discussing your idea! LOL..Where did that even come into play.. :roll:

We want it because it's popular? Worst comeback. Not everyone wants an item because it's popular. Most people just want it because they're hoarders or like the style. Also, if you don't want an item, why focus on what other people do with their coins or how much they want to spend on it? Don't like the price, don't buy it.

It wasn't meant as a "come back" i have no idea what you think this is, but we're supposed to be talking about your "idea" . And yes just because it's popular. If retros went out of style and were worth dirt, 1c, everyone wouldn't give a rats toosh anymore! (Now i don't mean EVERYONE everyone, but everyone who used them for value purposes) You wouldn't hear about them, and people wouldn't talk about them. It's how things are...Now regarding this keychain, that is exactly how it is..Before even when it was in the stores people didn't buy it at all..But now that it's jacked to 10m people just have to have it!

And i was using this item as an example, i don't wear keychains ;)

And as far as i'm concerned this discussion is over because you can't handle the truth and get so defensive/rude. Hagd.
