Seems like more dev work than it's worth, especially as it's only really relevant to a single forum.
I disagree, frankly wealth acquisition and trading is a back bone of Gaia. Not having a thriving trade forums can seriously hinder your upward mobility.
*shrug* I think the Marketplace works fine as the main selling/buying area for the vast majority of gaians.
Besides, it's not like a lot of users selling a small number of items in the forum use the
existing display system. Your suggestion sounds like a fancier and larger version of a feature that's fairly underutilized as it is; something that, while it would streamline the system for hardcore vendors, wouldn't get used as much as you think it would.
