Thanks for the feedback everyone. We'll definitely be adding a 'cancel auction' option and will be evaluating other suggestions proposed.

Seller should be responsibble for any problem in a listing and hence if he want to do something of the sort, he should be at risk of loss, not buyer. Regarding choose number to buy(and a bit on max counts): complete flexibility? NO, that just ruins the sale for the seller. But, with the current item limit thing, here is an alternative: share selling, allowing the sale of a specific item multiple times using only one auction slot. Specific example, sell 5000 shares of 1000 EM at the same time. The highest 5000 bids will get the EM at their bidding price. Ofc, this would also require the ability to buy multiple share at once or it's gonna be a pain to buy. This alllows buyers to have some flexibility in the amount they purchase while not ruining the sale by seller. Thou I feel it would be kinda bad if ppl post 1 item x 100 shares, instead of 100 item x 1 share, perhaps put a limit on the number of share that can be posted (unlimited if the item count is at max, otherwise some mulitple of the number of items sold perhaps?)
Here is an interesting concept: trade coins. Trade coins can be purchased for 1M each, they can be used instead of CR in bidding for their face value. They can be sold at 800k each. So if you sell all the coins you got from your auctions, the tariff is just what it is now. But if you use the coins you get from the auction to bid on stuff you want, you don't pay the tariff. When you bid on things, you will automatically use as many trade coin as you can instead of credit.
Autoextend defintely +1, I think 5 or 10 min will do justice. Not sure if that's in now, I thought it would be = =;
Regarding energy on bidding: Like I said on another thread, only if there is a minimal amount, say 10%, on how much you need to be higher than the current bid to place a bid. Frankly, spamming wont be a problem in that case, the price will go up rly fast and whoever is doing the spamming is just gonna have to pay a heavy fee later, let them. i like the trade coins and of course the buy now option and the end auction where if it has bids you get the money now and if it doesnt have bids you just cancel the auction to get your trade slot back

Definitely add a buy it now option. I work. I do not have the time or the inclination to sit around watching bids like a hawk. If I need something I want to be able to just buy it and be done. Also 10e per bid? Come on. You get into a bidding war and there goes 1k, total waste.
So far the only good thing I can say about the GTC is that it is motivating me to get my artifact production up so I NEVER have to utilize this god awful thing again.

what if planets were added to the trade center and bought for credits, they would have to be uncolonized.

nothing against the idea but i doubt it'll happen as Dan already dislikes the current planet trade system.

a buy it now option would be great for buyers and sellers and ...... would allow auction hunters to compare going rates for said items...bringing down the inflation issue

My thought of what needs changed...
#1 charge me energy to sell an item..... but not to buy an item (kinda like eBay charges the seller....not the buyer)
#2 under my auctions "status" just needs to have the # of bids
#3 Auction times need shortened 1hr / 3hr / 1 day
#4 regarding the auction sorting buttons , should be able to click a button a 2nd time and get the reverse order.
#5 add a "materials" or "artifacts" button to the left of the current sorting buttons
#6 cancel auction and cancel bid options
#7 selling un-occupied planets
#8 selling of GP and npc drop items
#9 a "refresh" button in all tabs auctions,my bids,my auctions
#10 auctioning of GP
and #11 when you alter your max bid (the 1st digit) hit delete and it kicks your cursor to the end.....needs to stay at the 1st digits place
edit: #12 "my Bids" needs to keep a little history so you can see what you won or didn't....the only way i knew was cause my money was back

There players now who not bidding and then @ the last second bid and wipe every one else out.
Shouldn't there be a timmer on each like 00:30 Time Lefted. and if some one bids under 30 seconds. the timer refreshs back to 30 seconds untill one winner is lefted.
This would prevent not beening able to see how long is lefted and prevent sniping. Also a refresh button needed to check bids as they dont automatically update.
FYI, Love the update as it could work well. but it need a little more upgrading.

the trading center is lowering some prices now but I agree with the timer and refresh thing. sniping also needs to stop since it's hard to win a bid

Note the fact that Dan hates planet trading in the first place, highly doubt that he would do such a thing, althought I like the planet trade on GTC.

i think for un-occupied planets it would be fine enemy planets would get messy one revealing name and or specific defense/attack prior to actual purchase... would never work imagine buying a planet and realizing its yours already.... or seeing your planet for sale.... selling planets you own could be done but ....

no thanks. sniping requires you to actually do something instead of watching and clicking and clicking and wasting and inflating and clicking...
