Excelsior

This may be superficial for ExEx but what if you had a bag locked in each person's bank box that any item in it is listed as available to auction in ExEx. Once auctioned, the item is locked down too until the auction is over. When you buy an item, the item is automatically placed in your auction bag and can be removed (unless you auction it!) and the gold is moved from your bank to the other persons bank.

This just streamlines the ExEx process so not necessary but would make buying/selling easier am make the ExEx feature used more. That would in turn create an efficient (or nearly so) market for items that people can inquire how much items are being sold for.

The ExEx box is *maybe* half a screen from where the bank is accessible, if even that far.

True but my thought was that you could then do it from any bank and have control what was in the bag (as in opening it and looking at it.) Also, then the bag knows who's items are in instead of having to do the book method. I am just saying it might be easier. It might not be worth the coding involved though.

The only time books are used in regards to auctions is the staff auction when players submit items.

The ExEx is handled entirely through the portal on the website, there are no books involved.
