So far it seems people are mostly opposed to offline trading.
Remove the feature to trade offline and I could see this project being a success.


The survey we held shows the opposite, in that 68% of votes wanted some sort of functionality to trade when offline. Perhaps we could limit offers to staying in the auction house for no longer than a week or something?


make it 24 or 48 hours

You should be able to buy x amount from a seller. As you can sell items while your off line? How can someone message you to buy x amount from your offer

I'm sorry, I don't mean to be a troll, but I'm a true old school player from way back in the day, STOP BEING LAZY AND LEARN THE STRUGGLE OF REAL RUNESCAPE, NOT EOC, Which I think stands for Easy, Of Course. 07 RS is meant to be hard, not easy, trading was not easy, training was NOT easy, there should be no improvised faster ways to trade than the original way because thats almost what made RuneScape, that, and Player Killing, now RuneScape has a bunch of younger audiences now and nobody knows what the hell anything is but EOC, I'm sorry Jagex, but EOC is just horrible, its not even close to what RuneScape used to be. Oh, and if you didn't guess by now, I'm kind of against this trading solution.

The problem with allowing players to only buy part of an offer is that it might impact on the price you can sell the stack of items for.

If there is a demand for large amounts of an item then you might be able to sell a stack of 1,000 for more each than a stack of 100. That might mean if someone buys 500 at the asking price then it will be more difficult to sell the remaining 500 at that price.

However, would giving each seller the option to decide whether they can sell their stack of items in just one sale or piecemeal solve the problem?

Noooo. This is the update I was dreading.. It just takes away a big part of what the old game is all about. It sounds better than a grand exchange but I still think this will be a very bad move. I thought you guys said that this update would be avoided when you first launched oldschool :|

I don't see what's wrong with that :P
