An unified auction house

I'm sorry but polls such as this are pretty pointless. If you want to get a true representation of whether people want a centralized auction house over this mess of a trader situation is to ask once during log-in for every account. I'd be willing to bet that the result would be a landslide victory for the establishment of a centralized auction house ( at the very least for consoles ).
How about just allowing trader where anyone can sell/buy ( no need to be in a guild) and put one in each capital. Hell, even charge a higher juice so if one wants to search for a bargain they can spend all day looking for remote traders. Or if someone wants to save some gold they can join a trading guild and list their items for less juice. If this were to happen I would also wager that those particular traders would see TREMENDOUS traffic. Win Win no ??

I am not too happy with current guild trade (auction) but I just kinda bear it

I am a relatively newcomer to ESO.

One thing that struck me shocking is the absence of single auction house.

In ESO the guild traders are far and apart and even when shopping for a gear/weapon it quickly becomes a pain.

So my fellow mates how many of you want a single unified auction house.

We can have several guild traders physically but they are all tied to single central repository to sell/buy items.

People really need to stop making these threads. A single ah Will never happen they have said so already.

I agree.. but the list of things they said would never happen is pretty LONG, so people keep hoping.

IE
Sub Model
Veteran system
Crossfaction grouping
Doing AD and DC story stuff on an EP character
...

I know I am forgetting like 10 things...

Still think there is time to code in an Auction House forward Morrowind....

Nope, they would actually need to change the games base code to bring in a different auction system. So unless they decide to do an engine upgrade, and they don't like the system they created, the chances of it changing are slim to none.

or.. they could just add another trader that you can acess from the bank to list and find in capitol of every alliance. coding would essentially function identically to current system, but instead of having it be spread across multiple guilds, it would just be a singular trader. they wouldn't need to change much about code at all, simplify it actualy.

and its not like large traders in ESO don't ride around buying up all the inexpensive items regularly only to flip them at their central location guilds, oh wait... THEY DO.

One needs to look no further than the very first answer to this post. There are people making a killing off of the current system.

It. Won't. Happen. Ever.

It would require huge changes to the base game code, and they have said as much. Ya'll can stop now.

there one vendor sells nothing, just empty, and already owned by a guild.
seem to me as vendor hog, preventing other available guilds wanting to sell and trades.

I don't remember voting for this but I guess I did. I prefer 1 auction house.

Once again I see people spamming the chat to join a guild, we keep seeing how far they can go with their greed, another guild saying to use the guild store it's a 10k weekly fee, if you don't pay they will kick you out if the guild.

For kicks I went to the guild leaders and officers homes to see what they have... Herm... They all own the biggest homes in the game, and some own every home in game... All maxed out with expensive decorations...

Coincidence?

Now yes they could have bought it with IRL money..
But then you wonder where all that gold goes from guild fees?

Guild stores bennofit only one person, the guild leaders and maybe a few officers... They don't use the gold for it's members to secure Trader stalls every week like it should.
I've seen in a guild bank with over twenty million gold in it, at the end of the week they say they got out bid on a guild store Trader stalls... Or that they did not have enough money for a good spot so they got a cheeper one way out in Timbuktu...

Where did all that gold go to?

Why does every guild leaders have the biggest max level home with all the most elite furniture?

Only a few Guilds that I look at have a guild leaders that's not abusing the guild store Trader system.... You can tell they use the money for the guild.... How? They have a free home or standard home and normal furniture.
Fees are low, or by donation. And some how they still get Trader stalls...

Sorry but facts show the corruption of the current guild store system. It to easy to make a monopoly, use your guild members as a source of free gold, exploting and leeching off it's members.

An Auction House would end the monopoly by opening up trade system to everyone playing... This will put money back to the people and not in the pockets of guild leaders.

Guilds are not ment to be a gold farmers Paradise.... Guilds are supposed to be for fellowship, a way to find like minded people to adventure with....

If you don't believe me see for yourself, go to your guild leader's homes, watch how much money is in the guild bank...

@Victoria_Marquis

I own a manor (and a large house as well). What does that really mean. I guess I am a leader of s trade guild, but not. Tha statement is completely irrelevant and means nada.

I'm also in a trade guild that doesn't require me to pay them any dues or purchase any tickets. Just a small requirement to actually sell some stuff which is the reason why players join them.

I am a wolf. Not going to be one of those steeples tha want things to be like the game I decided to not play anymore. Glad I am not stuck in a rut of wanting a lame, easily abused central trading kiosks and certainly glad we don't have an antiquated auction system.

But your permitted your oppinion and I respect you have one.

Adding here, since your somehow stating trading guild leaders steal from their guild to line their pockets you clearly has no clue what goes into running a successful trading guild. Often they put their own gold into the guild to bid during matches with competive times. You clearly do not know how much bids can easily be.

I think that clears up pretty much your entire post.

I have to be in a good trading guild to sell well, that sucks. I left the game for a while then came back, of course got kicked out of all my trade guilds. Now i have to keep spamming zone chat to sell anything, I think this is [snip].

I sell plenty via a PvE guild who gets a trader for the minimum bid. Talk about not prime location and still do well.

If you cant find something in your local guilds use this https://us.tamrieltradecentre.com/

Even then that isn't a 100% Auction house, I'd rather have a full working centralized marketer system imo per zone that pools all info from all the guild stores in that zone to those marketers so that we can still keep the guild stores but it won't be as much of a hassle going everywhere in that zone.
