Eso Tradeguild system is broken and is choking out new players.

lets face it, guild vendors are only really used in the major cities in any decent amount of traffic, which leads the majority of trading guilds out in the cold.
that means that the majority of players do not have the opertunity to vendor their items to others on a fair basis because there is a limited amount of members per guild and a limited amount of guilds which can get a decent trader.

so if you are new, or casual gamer, or a returning player.
you = boned.

this leads to dis satisfaction.
this leads to less enthusiasm for the game
and ultimately more people leaving less people joining.

the trade system needs a total and complete revamp.
right now there are a small number of players getting stupid rich on the backs of the masses.
a game is somewhere you escape to, to avoid the brutal realities of the real world.
you dont want to spend hours trying to sell your stuff, you want to explore.

    Everyone that wants to can be in an active trading guild.
    I see trading guild recruiters in Zone everyday.

    2 guilds I'm in have shops in areas you describe. 1 in evermore, bangkorai and the other in Sentinel, alik'r. Really good stall prices and if you price right you can make a fortune.

    I check prices in popular towns and then price items to sell in these locations. I have no problem making gold.

    If people priced items correctly, they would have success. Every day I see items that are ridiculously over priced. Those are the people I see complaining most in game/forums....

    It's like the starter islands, someone just has to tell you to join a few trading guilds. They are recruiting, there are web sites & here on the forum, or just jot down the name from a good stall and look them up.
    Changed my whole game when I figured that out.
