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.

If you want hard gameplay, RSC is like 100000x slower than osrs, Just gonna point that one out. Until within the past year maybe, rs3 was using most of the same methods to get to 99 skills as we do in osrs now. Calling osrs hard is a joke when you consider it like that.

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 don't agree. It puts some strategy into selling and hopefully prevents mass maniupulation. It'd be too easy to manipulate higher end items if you could sell a giant stack and have them be plucked off 1 by 1. Space management has always been part of the game and I see no reason why it shouldn't be part of this system as well.

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?
Yes, that's a very good solution.

Yeah, an option like "Sell together" or "sell separately" would work well, Imo.

This is one of the best updates going into OSRS, i would love to thank you personally for doing this Mod Mat K.

Apart from hoarders, people who stream or have lots of items they have either pked from players or have gotten from godwars which they no longer need.

Can easily sell to people who NEED or who WANT to make some small PROFIT.

Such as seeds, ores, daggers, etc nobody will buy for example 300 dragon daggers.

Regards 04.

i think when your trying to sell something there should be option to choose to let players buy all of them or they can buy x amount and you get to choose what the amount lowest
is

like if someone selling 10k flax and he puts it so u can buy 1k minimum that how it should work

or the seller can make it any amount

Yes if the seller/buyer could put the option to sell/buy there offer piece-by-piece I would be satisfied.

So let's make sure we're on the same page. If Cowkiller195 is selling 5 cups for 500gp and he has this option to sell piece by piece on and not all at once then I can buy 1 cup instead of all 5? But say he has the option unchecked, then I have to buy all 5 if I want the 5 cups for 500gp ea.

Just make sure that we can buy partitions of players offers so that we arent forced to buy an offer of 30 snapdragon seeds, we could just buy 5 of the 30 which the player offer per say and that could all be updated on the sellers offer, post sale
