So, it’s 2025, and I’ve gotta say, this whole face-to-face trading system with handshakes is just total bullsh*t. I mean, come on! We’re in a digital age where everything should be quick and seamless. Why are we still stuck in this old-school vibe?
No kidding... and the fact that it was introduced as a quick-fix bandaid for the nonexistent trading platform POE 1 had... and then PORTED OVER INTO POE 2 is ... beyond lazy and actually surprising.

Bad trading is literally part of the design philosophy. I put a thread up about in the general forum.

Not at all surprising. Chris has some very off-the-wall ideas about how a game should be and nobody can convince him he's wrong... ever...

I would love having auction house. Right now people dump everything into "cost 1 ex" tabs and if they suddenly get massive amount of whispers, they keep rising the price (which is a disgusting bait) instead starting high and going lower until they sell the item. Auction house would help with the good practice.
with an automated auction house you would never ever see any of these cheap unterpriced items. and if you price something to cheap, the item is instabought by the next bot. no room for mistakes, no room for learning. that wouldnt harm experienced players that dont sell cheap items anymore cause they drop more in 1 map than selling for 1 exalt. it would hurt only new players.
these problems right now some new players complain about are mostly produced by new players themselves.
players that know poe for years dont whisper the cheapest guy on trade and wonder about no reply.
I never see them anyway because:
a) bots get to them first
b) some troll dumps them to "1 ex" tab for a fast price check
c) unresponsive players in 95% cases (not even a whisper back asking for me to wait)

All legitimate issues that would be resolved if they would put in an actual trading mechanic instead of bandaiding with the POE 1 outdated website.
