Please give console players an in game trade board.

Please bring an in game trade board. Trading is an important aspect in this game especially if you have any desire to make specific builds or try to play a meta. Right now trading is totally broken for console players. This is a pretty big deal and I feel like could be an actual situation where people stop playing due to not being able to trade or trading being so tedious that it can take hours of you whispering malicious pc bots / farmers just to still not end up with an item feels bad.

Adding a trade board seems like a slam dunk win here and is obviously doable since it's something already in POE.
YES PLEASE!

It would make so much sense to be able to purchase items directly from a "shop" where other players have listed items from their stash.

I believe it would also greatly help everyone, if the trades can take place while not interacting directly.
Here's jonathan talking about trade in POE2.

TLDR: they want instant buyouts and a nice search feature but they do want to limit trading so they're thinking about adding a gold cost to doing a trade.

I guess I don't actually know as well. The whole thing seems dumb. If in your mind trading is allowed but you want to limit it then why not just do it the way POE has always done it. Honestly I'd be totally fine if they removed trading in general if it's something they don't like. If they do that there had better be clear cut ways to get very specific pieces of gear though because this game is build around being able to trade and requiring very specific items for almost every build in the game.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I have since found out that instant buyout means you post a price and if someone accepts it the transaction happens without any other interactions (like messaging, joining game and so on). The confusing thing here is we already have this on POE 1 console. The only difference is they will add the gold fee.
Worst most lame trade system ever made for a game. 2/10.
No loot filter. POE 2 is not for console players, that much is obvious.
Console loot filter for POE2 Please!
Please add an in game trade board!
I dont think PC players even realize what the console version of PoE1 had for trading lol

You had filters by item type, specific item types ( pull up all ilv 83 copper plates ). Then when the items all showed you could then add keyword filters. Highlight only all copper plates with life and all resistance stats. Whatever.

It usually took me less than a minute to find what i wanted and then the purchase was instant. Any priced items you chose and it moved to a purchase window insids the market board so you could choose as many items as you wanted. You put your currency in the window, submitted and waited for the trade to be accepted.

So instead of having to stare at the chat window all day waiting for someone to respond, you just went about your business and checked the market board whenever you wanted. The item is sitting there.

You could also add little messages inside each trade window. So if you priced something weeks ago at 1div and someone wanted it you could reject but with a " 2div plz " message or whatever.

It was easy, robust and fast.

The PC market in comparison is ridiculous. Mainly because not only do you have to wait around for the person to respond you then had to add them to a party, meet up and do a trade that way.

It is archaic and awful
a lot of us still cant use the trade site. our account are fully unlocked but borked by ggg. i have been started over on poe1. they made my fake pc account the xbox main. what idiots.
