iwoply Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 Its called the Market and is located at the front of your orbiter. In all honesty JSharpie sums it up pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prices dropped when Warframe.Market was created. If you make it accessible in game, why would I ever pay more than 10p for anything when everyone will be trying to undercut everyone else to get a quick sell. Removing the required "face to face" interaction would destroy the economy, and since no weapon is inherently better than any other (hypothetically of course) you would see standard prices for every part, set, and item outside of exclusive ones.

Prices would calibrate themselfs - i think you'll not put the lowest price for your efforts just to sell things quicker. 9 minutes ago, JSharpie said: you would see standard prices for every part, set, and item outside of exclusive ones So... you telling me that trading in warframe is basically build around "making profit on those who unfamilliar with prices"?

People will, trust me. It happens in plenty of other games with markets. 1 hour ago, Sivialus said: So... you telling me that trading in warframe is basically build around "making profit on those who unfamilliar with prices"? When I say standard prices I mean that every rare part will be 30p, every uncommon part will be 15p, and every common part will be 5p. Or something of that sort. Lets not even mention the rapid increase in botting and platinum resellers you would see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One program to run multiple accounts to check to see if the login reward is 75% off, buy the max amount of platinum, roam the "stores" for cheap, preset prices, and then crank it up. The fail-safes DE put in make it harder, but certainly not impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be a person using bots and clever workarounds to resell platinum to players at a discounted price for real money. 4000 platinum for 200 dollars? how about 4000 platinum for 75?

Everything is possible and if someone will make an effort - it's his personal victory, but i think it'll not cause a big damage to market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RistN Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 Playing this game and trading stuff developed everyone's sence on how much value in platinum some parts,mods possess.No matter how much lower price gets it will return to that original value sooner or later.So killing trade prices is kind of not truth.Prices dropped because of changes in warframes and small change like idea OP had wouldn't change a thing.When talking of changes it is better now,relation between number of parts you can get and their value is better in end result.

This would be nice addition to a place that only good thing about it now is it's a place for people without DOJO to trade in.It's near impossible to sell something there.

--Q--uixotic Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 It should at least allow you to set the price on the item, even if a manual trade is required. I see things listed in Maroo's that are potentially interesting, but I don't bother asking because their asking price will be too high and I don't enjoy haggling. Same reason why I don't list things at Maroo's - I don't want people asking me for a price then moving on. Would rather stick it on warframe.market and get a message from a real buyer.

Dumfing Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 Think of it like this: if you have a weapon skin in CS:GO, you can stick it on the market and maybe get $0.03 off of it. or, you can interact with other people and trade that skin up in order to make a better profit.

(PSN)LeonidasxGGG Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 I suggested that maybe we could leave ads there, but if a clan could set up shop I guess that could also work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
