World of Warcraft Adding In-Game Auctions
May 27th, 2004
Ok, it’s a gimmick, but this COULD be really HUGE for the MORPG economy. Think about it, become a blacksmith, make your stuff, and sell it at auction, instead of using the trade channel, etc. Have any other games tried this?





Horizons had consignment shops where you would set the price, give the item to the NPC, and then go adventuring, or even log off. Eve has a similar system.
It’s not quite auctioning, but it gave the player more free time a ton of load off the /auction channel.
Pretty cool news.
