Hello all!

I was checking out the new auction house feature, and was curious as to why it was designed the way it was. Honestly, when I thought an auction house belonged in the game, I imagined the simplest way (and potentially best) was to set up item trade/purchase almost exactly like the CE trade. That way, items could be bought or sold with ease and the best average price would reveal itself based on item supply/demand.

Instead, I saw an auction house set-up similar to other MMO-types (WoW's, for example.) I not sure how to explain it exactly how I feel, but the implementation just doesn't seem right for the game. Any thoughts?
