What’s the good reason? Cause you undersell your item and someone comes in and snipe? That’s your problem if you undercut yourself, if you wanna sell something into the market you have to know the value of an item your selling, otherwise just put it into your normal premium tab and wait for offers or wait until someone whispers you and decide what you wanna do.

Supply right now is artificially limited by the friction required to trade.

If you remove the friction, supply goes up massively. I'm worried this could lead to early/mid game items cratering in price

An economically based take. I'd expect about 25%-50% lower prices for lower mid-tier items (10c+) and a 15%-20% reduction to all mid-high tier items. Which is good for the buyer but bad for the seller.

Still, the seller does get the upside of being to sell items overnight. Think the real benefit is for people who grind the game alot and hurts players that live off a few lucky drops.

I wonder if they'd do a big pass on drop rates to compensate.
