my concern is that if this comes back the g.e will die. without price limits what stops people from selling potaotes* for 23 million? how bad would it be to have to walk around saying, buying potatoe 28gp over and over again until someone selles it to you? it could take hours to get something that should take only seconds to obtain?

*example item only.

By compromise I mean like raising the trade limit, having restrictions on what items can be brought into the Wilderness, lemme run it down for ya.
1) The trade limit will START at 100k per DAY allowing for a certain player to dump 100k at time on a player
2) If your friend wants to give you a whip or something over 100k for your birthday or christmas, they can reserve and item over the GE for you and you only and you can buy it for 1/5 of the cost. Instead of flipping said item immediately for 500% profit, the item is locked onto your character for one whole year.
3) Have 30-40 Wilderness PKing worlds so items and stuff only found in the wilderness do not skyrocket in price.
**Note** The following deal with ONLY the Wilderness Pking worlds as stated in 3.
4) On number 2, you cannot enter the wilderness with a reserved item.
5) No money can be brought into the Wilderness.
6) You must weild a weapon in the wilderness
7) Combat must occur by BOTH players every 5 seconds
That's all the ones I can currently think of.

@ambro, we were talking about this yesterday, this was the big idea for that. Make it so when your selling a item you can have a lowest amount, so anything that much or higher it sells.
When your buying something you put a max bid on it, so anything lower and it buys.
Make it so it chooses the median amount and makes the transaction.
I personally really like this idea, any thoughts?

Darth there is no need for a compromise because an overwhelming majority are in favour of the changes being proposed. It's not a knife-edged 50-50 encounter.
Suggesting a compromise whilst being the losing party is a last attempt at trying to have your way when the outcome is inevitable. Clutching at straws.
Edit:
Power I back the idea. I believe that is how it would be done anyway.

No amens for my compromise posts yet? :( Is it really all of nothing...
Wow, I feel as useless right now as Ericia from Fire Emblem Sacred Stones when all she talked about for 18 whole chapters was "I just need to talk to Lyon, then I can end this war" **SPOILER** She doesn't.
