Okay, now we have this setup:

When you look at the item page:

When you look at the whole market page:

The problem with these is, it is easy to lock the bazaars that shown by drop a huge amount of a kind of weapon at a cheap price for example, and it generates a monopoly on the bazaar section (a section that you can't scroll over it since it is stuck with the 3 cheapest bazaars), and now it's barely impossible to you to look for good quality weapons without getting stuck at some weird flooded bazaar.

The way I'm thinking about to change is something like this:

Sorry for the typos =)

Hope you like this suggestion.

So you want the 6 lowest priced bazaar listings shown instead of just 3 as it is now, and also want those 6 bazaars to be shown on the item market screen for the item in question?

What stops you from making another suggestion after this asking for 10 bazaars?

Also, Ched mentioned somewhere that the bazaars will soon go back to serve their old purpose of display and Item market will be the place for buying and selling stuff and search bars and stuff will be added to the item market.
SanchoProdding [1044045]
We already have a place to DISPLAY items, it is called DISPLAY CABINET, BAZAARS are supposed to be BAZAARS.

10 Bazaars showing is aesthetic, Search bars won't help the same purpose.

Also, nothing is torn will obstruct your right to suggest... even if you got 100 likes on your suggestion it doesn't mean that they will make it happen, it just grants that they will READ it.

Why you soo offended with this suggestion Mr.Scofield?
_SCOFIELD_ [1441750]
I think this place is to give your opinion.

What I said was my opinion and what you suggested has been asked and rejected before.

If you can't take opinions which are opposed to your demands then don't ever make a suggestion thread next time.
SanchoProdding [1044045]
I'm taking opinions =l and clarifying things when necessary.

sure maybe someone suggested it before, but now it is another time... there is a lot of changes going on.

they can just say NO to me, and in one year or two, someone will come with the same suggestion or a better one.

this is how it works.

I think that having only 3 bazaars visible creates an interesting dynamic and rewards both an understanding of the market and frequent price updates. I guess adding another 3 wouldn't change that a hell of a lot, but I guess I'm just used to the way it is. I think it would reward the bigger traders as well as it would be easier to sell bulk. Plus, if you really want to see the higher priced bazaars, you can use YATA or just the API on its own. That being said, it is a little annoying that you cannot search for equipment by quality or anything - even in the item market listings, it's very hard to compare at a glance. Perhaps a sort-by-value search feature could be added to item market. Probably it would be easier to do with just quality, but it would be nice to be able to look at dbk's by acc, for instance.
SanchoProdding [1044045]
Some items will be less affected by this difference, but in other cases like... Macanas you have some big "traders" that keep dumping trash stats macanas at the market to stay in front of Bazaar line, and other players follow this "trend" soo new player stick with bad quality equips just because it will be too expensive look for a better one since you need to buy all cheap stuff just to see the next 3 bazaars.

With boss loots you will normally see the same 3 players selling 3%~6% quality weapons for an abusive price wile prob there are some better ones hidden by this price tag barrier. JUST AN EXAMPLE.

Only 3 bazaar slots pushes people to sell their stuffs cheaper if they want to sell it faster, which is very good for buyers, the majority of people just want to buy stuffs as cheap as they can, so 3 is the magic number, 3 is actually genius.

The problem here is weapons because weapons have unique stats and often people actually are willing to buy the more expensive ones. (There used to be the time when weapons have no unique stats, you know?)

So the solution here is to have a separate system just for weapon trading, as the 3 bazaar slots is perfect IMO.
nutmeg [2140333]
True, I think having the item market item reduces this issue somewhat, though. Many dedicated weapons traders will put some of the better quality ones up in the item market rather than through their bazaar so it's always visible. And you can work around it as well by looking for ads in trade chat and forum.

Like I said, all of that is kind of annoying, and I'm not opposed to a method to search by str/acc/def/quality. But I doubt if adding just 3 more bazaar slots will block people from filling up the visible slots with junk, especially for popular items like dbks and armalites, where it's most important to be able to find the better quality ones.
