    I'd like to hear thoughts on the idea of being able to auction off items. I think it would be interesting to have players be able to put their items in a separate auction tab and bid their fp's for these items and after a certain time limit the highest bidder wins. There could be a minimum bid the seller places for their items. The seller would then gain those fp's. This is a way that players with near worthless items could gain back fp. There would have to be a limit to the auction. We don't want 1,000 arctic boss drops floating around in the auction. Obviously this idea is in its infancy so it could be tweaked so it works well in game. Thanks

    I think this is a good idea, but I agree with Cricket, if not set up correctly, it could be abused. There would need to be some sort of cap to amounts that could be bid. Maybe boss drop be excluded from this and only limited Items and raid drops be up for auction.

    no way. if you want better inventory, you have to EARN it. if you need limiteds, use FPs to get them. if you need raid drops, join more raids. and "selling" boss drops is a DEFINITE no.

    No thanks, No for boss drops but you can sell unused limited items and get GFs that option already exist. Agree with @cricket_jumper

    Sorry seen something like this happen in a game before and it went terribly wrong and not to mention to many fake accounts with hoards of favor points can easily start purchasing these things. No for me and zero. But thanks for trying to come up with something.

    I'm sorry but this isn't a good idea at all. Thanks but no thanks. Since many people are not using certain items anymore, we need to continue to ask for more crafting abilities so we can do something with the useless items.

    I think an auction house would just invite more alts to cheat with.

    good luck with this. there have been countless posts over the years about crafting, and nothing has happened. i'll just continue to stockpile the useless items like i have been.

    who hasn't been stockpiling useless items? lol I'll continue to ask for updates to crafting. Squeaky wheels eventually get greased.

    Agreed on the crafting aspect this i see to many ways to abuse it no matter how you grease the wheels on this idea.
