Default Are the posting any pics?

Some things like broker/trader interface would be interesting to see. It would tell a lot about the current concepts.

(I.e split screen for buying and selling so you can check current going prices when posting something.)

Hmm, not sure. But if it was interface like that then it just totally rapes the whole risk vs. reward aspect of being a merchant.

I mean in real life you buy s product and travel around hoping that it sells higher in a certain place. Now if you had the information already then why shouldn't every one just be a merchant?

Well, I might have misread your post but my opinion still stands. If they put a window that shows you all the prices of the goods then I'm against it.

You pay what you're willing to pay it's as simple as that. Some merchants shall be cheaper or more expensive than others. They cannot foresee what we will be selling items for. The only way that they could possibly know that is after release. Besides, prices don't always remain the same either... I'm sure during the first week of release many items will sell for 3-5 times what they are worth. Just to get the economy started.

Agreed with Ccoa. The good-old players vendor system is much better for Mortal Online economy.

hhmm, i think you kind of understood, but maybe not totally.

My intent is to see the mechanics of whatever system they have. So i'd be interested in seeing just a screen shot of the interface open. The vendor system was and example, but you could exspand that to guild window, bank window, inventory, etc.

The way things are laid out tells me much more than a picture of a rhino or some other puerly graphical shot.

That being said, I will be you there is some type of "search" for items. If not, finding anythiing would be a mess and would to cumbersome to locate something unless you just happened to stumble over it. (off topic though, more interested in seeing the mechanics they have laid out for things even if it is just a jpg screen shot.)
