An Idea

[★ Dav]

I think the prices should vary according to cirtain factors

 

If an item is unpopular it should be cheap but when more and more people buy it in a given time the price should rise.

 

Price should rise and fall comparitivly to related items, e.g is many buy cloak, xradar should rise a little too.

 

Also, make items holedalbe and umlinited numbers and buy myltiple e.g

 

?buy 10slot:10

 

You have bought 10 10slots at $200,000 each. Total cost 2,000,000

 

then get in a ship and equip any stored items:

 

?equip 10slot

 

10slot had been equiped and is ready to use

 

 

Selling items:

 

2 options

 

1. at the store where you get 50% of current retail

 

2. at the trading post where you can set an asking price, sales up for 10 days

 

?sell 10slot:200000

 

You 10slot is up for sale at $200,000 If unsold in 10 days it will be returned at no cost

 

when sold:

 

your 10 slot has been sold to %buyer for $200,000 You have recieved 176000. 12% commision was taken.

 

 

 

at the trading post you can type ?buy 10slot and you get:

 

1. %seller @ 200,000

2. %seller @ 185,000

3. %seller @ 203,000

 

and to buy:

 

?buy 10slot 2

 

You have bought 10slot from %seller at 185,000

 

 

 

 

Doing this will make the game more interesting, people may buy stuff cheap and wait for price to rise then sell it all to make money (or lose it is they dont do it right) Also it allows sales to be made for items at better prices and allows people to take items from ships and fit them as they please.

a new system is in the works

I don't like the equipping items idea; it pretty much just allows people to buy 1 item, and circulate it around for all their ships, making it too easy to get good ships, since they'd only actually be buying an item once, but would be able to use it for all of their ships.

 

The interactive market idea is interesting, but with the new item system, it's probably best left out.

prehaps make ites ship specific, ?buy 10slot ship1,l still allows people to be traders and stops circulation.

 

Also allows ibtys to get stuff and save it for when they want to add it.
