Will there ever be the consideration of an Auction House instead of this Guild Store System?

The Guild Store system is cool and all but It seems that a lot of players don't have access to it therefore they're not able to sell items like they would like. I feel like an auction house would improve the market of the game because every guilds prices are completely different and have to set market to it for console at least. I've been looking for specific traits for weeks now and I seem unable to find them I've tried every guild store in game and none of them have the traits I'm looking for let alone the gear I need. If anyone else feels the same way please respond or if you feel differently on why the guild system is better explain why it is. Being in five guilds doesnt really give you commitment to one guild like other MMOs where you can really connect with people because you can choose whether or not you want to talk to them. But have all of the items up for sale in guild kiosks across the game in different areas and if the items I am looking for are out there I would have no clue which guild has it which would just be better if there was a centralized location. for all of the items for sale. like even if there was a vendor that connected all of the guild stores together so that you can look at what everyone has for sale in one place. This would greatly reduce the stress of trying to find specific items that players need.

    ZOS said in the past it would put undue stress on the Mega server, so the answer is No.

    I'm not sure how it would add stress to the servers. I'd still post 100 items for sale I just wouldn't have to have my wares strewn across four guilds. It seems more complicated this way, not to mention less efficient.

    Zenimax has no intention of ever implementing a global auction house, or a trading section on this forum. These are two of the main reasons why I created a multi-platform ESO trading site several months ago. See the links in my signature below. I'd appreciate a sign-up, but you are more than welcome to post as a guest. Spread the word. The more players that make use of the site, the better and easier it will be for everyone to trade and find what they want.

    Can't find the items you are looking for? Need a place to trade? We welcome ESO players of all platforms at ESO Trade, the home for trading of goods and services in the lands of Tamriel.

    Game the system and get rich. PC has addons and makes that much more difficult. Its not going anywhere. And if it makes it any better, the PC crowd didn't even have that at one point. Make use of it.

    You're able to join 5 guilds and post 30 items per guild. So how about finding some crafting guilds and selling your stuff to the guilds (without a trader), if theres a trader thats a plus but even without you can still sell your things. Theres no point in a world auction house in this game. With 5 guilds thats 150 items and most crafting guilds have 4-500 members. If you arent selling your stuff to lets says 2000 people then you're flat out overcharging.

    Not shooting the messenger, but if that's their serious reason for not doing it, they need to rename their server to the Mediocre Server.

    I don't think we need an auction house. I like that each store has its own economy. I feel like an auction house would complicate things at this point. It would also render guild stores obsolete.

    Ain't that the TRUTH?!

    Lack of a global auction house / market is a detriment to the game, not a positive feature. Just my opinion but it seems to be shared by others.

    The current system is actually pretty cool - they just need to improve their absolutely TERRIBLE store interface to allow for more speed and accuracy in searching/browsing. It's just awful as is. I mean, really, no F@#$% text search?

    Here's how I see it. Each guild store has its own economy, so you don't have to worry about global inflation. If one store sucks, you can move on to the next one. You can shop around for the best deals. In my mind, it's like big business vs local business. But maybe I don't know what I'm talking about.

    I like the current system, but would be better if there was a town that had a market place, where all the guild vendors were located (or a copy of them), then you could shop between guilds without having to ride across the world.

    Why not shop from all guild stores from one auction house?
