Idea to Stop Sniping in its tracks....
i actually like this idea....could be a good think or add an option to add this to sell it....i.e if your offline you wont be able to accept it
Beans was a legend!!! thats all you need to know....he is the main reason why people list amens for many millions when doing trades
If I list 120 Eds and someone want to buy 60 of them it can send me a message saying "RR123 wants to purchase your 60 Energy Drinks from the Market, Would you like to Accept or Decline this offer"? and it would give me 1 notification for all 60

They could do a thing that if your online it asks you but if you offline the your SOL
JoeInBe...With some tweaking, I actually like this idea. However, I sell items and amenities a lot, and then go offline. I'd hate to have to come back to hundreds of events. For instance, up here in SD, if I list 1000 blunts for sale, chances are that I'll end up selling those 1000 blunts to 5 or 6 different people. And probably about 20 transactions, as there are individuals that like to crime up the money as they buy... I'd hate to have to stop what I was doing just to have to approve a transaction.
At the end of the day, if you're transferring over an amenity that is of value, it doesn't take much to either sell up eds for cheap in order to get transfer fee, or borrow money from someone just for the transaction.
If you're listing something of value for $1 for transfer, then you can't complain if it gets sniped.

Yes like you said with some tweaking it could work out well

How bout a message sayign when u post saying do you want this transaction to be approved by you?
And this is an addition it would be cool if I could Put 1000 Blunts on a Transaction Page and you can put an xbox or whatever and once we both accept it automatically gives me what I made and what you made from the deal
JoeInBe...or even better would be an escrow service that would cost a couple favors to use.
Pay 2 or 3 favors per transaction. You enter the item you want for sale and it's price, then you enter the recipient. Then they have to go in and close the escrow by purchasing it. 10% of the purchase price would still be taken out or something. But still, everyone would just use this to sell things for $1. a couple favors at a time would add up, but it ensures that no one will snipe your sale.

so instead of one person getting it, you want about 120 conformation messages? betters idea, list it for more than the regular snipers have, if you list it for $1 you can't expect to get it back

yeah what i meant was, if you list a ps3 reg for $1 and theres 140 people online (therre is currently) chances are most of them will have it on their watchlist and will click buy, therefore getting all of their 'purchase conformations'
except for that bit, i like it
DarkSoulHonestly i like this and also dislike this it's like a 50 50 thing. First as a rational player i'd not change current market thing. You already give heads up to your buddy before listing, usually you say "say go" and list it. So sniper is always less likely to get that shit even it's for $1. The reason shit still gets sniped is either your buddy has some internet problem or slow internet or that sniper is using fuking 1gbps (lol just kidding) though it's a good idea but it'd promote private deals in open market. That sounds wierd.
