Hey all! I thought it might be cool if we made something like a traders guild, just band together the bigger shops/traders of the server. To discuss prices for items that aren't traded a lot, to suggest items to eachother, to possibly discuss large scale trades or orders and to band together against way too low/high prices. We need to uphold certain prices against others making them way too cheap/expensive so its fair for all.
I was thinking of making a building for it that could list all the warps to shop, see it as free advertisement, and a discord to discuss said things

If you'd like to join, feel free to apply here.
Just list the following things:

I'd like to join because /worth isn't very helpful, especially when nobody sells some things, and I want a way to determine good prices to sell things at. It might also be interesting to meet other traders and potentially make some cross shop deals.

haha you still use /worth? Ever heard of /buy?
Seriously, do /buy iron_ore and it'll show you all the shops that sell iron ore. Scroll to the top of the list for the lowest price.
Also since you didnt know that much, I bet you didnt know you can add your warp to the buy list by doing /shop <price> <quantity> <warp_name> or as an example, /shop 4.99 64 sellshop

I still like the idea, to avoid too much competition. It's oligopoly time.

AKSerenity, AKNethershop, AKSpice and soon more.

We absolutely need a big hall with a map in the table, of course. For... trade things.

PugCorp Group
(Stores include the Versace group, seashop & Luvas Redstone Store)
I think this will be a good opportunity to stop the overpricing of items in stores across the server

Shopname The Black Kraken
Why you want to join(optional) SellShop is my legit shop which I always try to outprice everyone else. The Black Kraken is my rp shop which I don't care to make profit in. I'm adding the rp shop and not my actual shop because I know this "trade guild" isn't profitable unless everyone on the server joins, which I guarentee they won't. The only way you can get me to raise my prices in sellshop is by making everyone else raise their prices first.

I kinda agree Pres, this would be pretty pointless without a way to make sure people outside the guild keep their prices below the set minimum.

That's why I want tariffs on non-members who do that. Basically just members don't trade with people who go lower than the minimum, so they get no money and hopefully decide to raise to the minimum.

I dont think it is gonna work to uphold the prices, the tarrifs is a nice thought but I can imagine a lot of players will just shrug and get their stuff elsewhere then, but this can still be used to discuss prices for unpriced or badly/rarely sold items, a guild for people to approach if they need to buy a lot of stuff for a certain contract, and other more trade specific stuff
