Problem: AH can take up to 20 minutes to deliver won items.

Solution: AH Rush delivery.

How it will work:

Let's say you buy an item. But you need it IMMEDIATELY. No problem. After buying it, just click the rush delivery button next to the item and you can have the item delivered to your mailbox for the price of the items level * 100 (Example: you want Helmet of Xenix rushed to your mailbox? 245*100 = 24,500 gold [all sunk]).

If you're buying a Special Section potion, you get it rushed for 10% of the price you paid instead. :]

That's a great idea, and an even better gold sink, I like it :D

Awesome idea.

Did you know that there are likely over 2000 rouge black holes in our galaxy alone. Each of them can reach very high speeds, even in space terms, are each capable of destroying anything in their path, and are invisible. Well, goodnight!

To anybody who said no, please say why.

This is a gold sink and is optional, i don't see any reason why not to add it.

I guess if you got a need for a potion having to wait up to 20 minutes for delivery isn't so bad game-mechanicwise. I didn't vote but it's probably an ok idea except for programming and the lack of need to preplan elite or SE hunting. This messes with when the losing bid gold is returned too.

Can get things delivered immediately - buy at 19/39 and 59 mins past the hour LOL.

Seriously tho, I like it - can't see me using it 'cos i'm never in that much of a rush, but good idea and a good gold sink.

I like the idea, not sure how well it would work as I notice whenever the Auction house gets overloaded with items is when the lag gets bad. If its able to be implemented I say go for it.

I like this idea lot, I am in a hurry a lot, especially when my mom is coming and I want to get my auctions, but I have to turn off the computer and act casual LOL! But still I like it, and with rising cost of FSP, I think it would be a wonderful idea.

I think it would be a great idea. I've run into problems like these before... But who gets the extra gold? No one, or does the person selling it get the gold?
