Also, whilst on the topic of Market..

Although this might take a bit of coding could the market ever be developed to allow for buy orders whereby if a player wishes to buy an item he can place the order on the market and sellers can fill the order of they want.

i.e - I have 20 FSP and want to buy an excellent fully forged helm of ursa for that 20FSP

I therefore place a 'buy order' for 20 FSP and if anyone who has a helm of Ursa, excellent and fully forged wants to sell they can look at the buy orders, see if there are any that they are happy to sell at and then either fulfill the buy order or if there are none that satisfy sell on the AH as normal.

Pro's for us:
1. We have the option of doing the reverse side of a trade
2. There is another role of a trader, to identify market inefficiencies and make money out of buying on the market to fulfill open buy orders.
3. Often people dump items as they don't know what the demand is and want to utilise their AH slot for an item with a better chance of selling/higher value. This way before dumping you could check buy orders which means the player selling gets gold that they may not have got, and the buyer gets an item he may have had real difficulty finding

Pro's for HCS
1. Players have to buy the 'buy order' slots for FSP similarly to AH slots
