I just thought of an interesting idea. A building could be placed in a few different towns where a Market Wizard would live. Say Varrock, Falador, Seers, Ardougne, and Yanille.

 

 

 

When you want to sell something, just go over to him and show him what you want to sell and tell him how much you'd like for it. He'll write it down then you can go back to whatever it was you were doing.

 

 

 

When someone goes to the Market Wizard saying they want to buy something he'll let them choose from different categories and subcategories to narrow down what they want (for example, if they want yew longbows they'll click on Ranging, Bows, then the yew longbow).

 

 

 

Then the wizard could give them a list of players that are online and selling that object. It would also say how much the player is charging and where the player is at the moment.

 

 

 

Once you pick your seller the Wizard will remind you where he is and how much he's charging, then inform you that you can either teleport to that town yourself or he could teleport you for a fee of 5k (or something like that)

 

 

 

The Wizard would then appear in front of the seller and inform him who is interested in their product and that they'd be arriving shortly. This is to prevent the seller from wandering off.

 

 

 

At that point the seller could then add the buyer and they could work out further details if they wish.

 

 

 

In my opinion this would be much more productive and efficient since buyers and sellers could be matched much quicker and easier.

 

 

 

Hmm, what do you guys think?

clever idea, but along with the market stands idea, this is exactly like the forums, no different.

In my opinion it would be a bit more organized than the forums since it would include only players that are online at the moment and the Wizard would inform the seller who's buying their product. Also the wizard could tell you where the seller is at the moment and provide you with transportation for a small fee.

Do you realize how complicated this would be?
