this is how it is on chaos:
There is a limit of 5 concurrent 'private market' trades IF you have supporter status. Else you may only trade (buy or sell) once per day. The private market is a brokered trade of goods between players, although you can not choose which player to buy or sell from.
BUYING ON THE PRIVATE MARKET:
To buy from the private market, view the list of available goods. Only the best deal for each exchangeable resource will be listed.
Next to the trade package you wish, enter the amount of the GOOD FOR SALE you want to buy, at the rate listed (it defaults to all of them)
You are done - note that all trades are final.
SELLING ON THE PRIVATE MARKET:
To place a good for sale, stipulate what you want in return for it. You can only choose one type of good, and one total price, for the package.
Goods will arrive at the market within 6 hours.
The proceeds from your trade will be delivered immediately upon completion of sale, and Naquahdriah will be put into your bank (if you want Naquahdriah in return).
If it does not sell after 24 hours of being on market, it is returned. Keep this in mind when setting your price.
ALL PRIVATE MARKET TRANSACTIONS INCLUDE A FIVE (5) PERCENT BROKER FEE, SO YOU WILL GET IN RETURN ONLY 95% OF WHAT WAS TRADED, OR 95% OF YOUR ORIGINAL GOODS BACK IF THEY DO NOT SELL. (THE MERCHANT DOES NOT LIKE OVERPRICED INVENTORY CLOGGING HIS MARKET.)
the other part of layout is:
3x naq for UU trades
3x naq for turn trades
3x uu for naq trades
3x uu for turn trades
3x turn for naq trades
3x turn for uu trades
how close to the above is the idea in this thread?
