Nice!

Awesome idea! Maybe make boosters a little bit cheaper though, or make a booster contain more cards. I spent 20 euros buying boosters and only got 1 unique item. So they might be REALLY hard/expensive to get now. Which I lile, but they will becope REALLY expensive Other than that, I like this A LOT! TCG feel at last

Awesome idea! Maybe make boosters a little bit cheaper though, or make set more cards in a booster. I spent 20 euros buyilg boosters and only got 1 unique item. So tyey might be REALLY hard to get now. Which liie as well. Will make it even easier to get cheap cards, harder to get new cards

Hence why wulven will make more money

Which I like. But I don't want to pay 20 euros or so just for one card.

Waiting for one more restock then buying 100 jasmines

So once this system is implemented, the merchant can only be restocked based on players selling cards and the price for those cards are based on what the player selling decides? No more merchant restocks at all?

I think we're going to end up with a lot of complaints from newbies about certain cards being too expensive. Players like N3rd and Kentuequi who have a ton of cards and gold, really don't have much incentive to sell their card stock. Their gold doesn't get used up for anything else other than cards unlike in real life where money from the stocks is used in a variety of ways. So when they feel like selling, it will be only at a high price.

What event will trigger a decrease in the price of the cards? In real life, stocks go up and down based on company performance, environmental variables, etc. But in this market, what will cause the price of the cards to go downwards?

If this will be implemented, I also suggest you put a minimum and maximum range in the price of the cards being sold. You shouldn't be able to sell cards at a drastically low or extremely high price. A limit should be set so that the price you can set is within +/- 10% of the last price the card was sold at.

For example: If the card was last sold at 200, you can only set your price from 180 to 220. This will prevent someone from trying to jack up the price to 1000 immediately. It could eventually reach that high but at a staggered basis if people are willing to buy at increasing prices. Anyway, I think something like this will need to be implemented or we're going to end up with over-valued cards.

I like this idea, though, so that there will be some sort of rarity for some cards, but it might turn into a disaster if it's not thought out through carefully.

There are auctions in almost all games and while prices can be controlled I think setting a cap is a bad idea. If I wanna pay 10k gold for a jas that I need and there are 1000 other players that have bid 200g o don't wanna have to wait my turnlol
