Safe trade
Posted: Mon Dec 03, 2012 6:44 amHello citizens of the new world!
I have decided to try the profession as mediator/middle man in transactions on the Plymouth server.
What the f... is this you might say. (You probably are right now.)
Right now there is one way of trading safe and thats using the stalls. Not everyone can afford to sell from stalls though.
Im sure many of you have dreaded trading using the barrels as the mechanics are set up to make scamming easy.
Therefore I bring you an alternative.
This is how I have imagined it to work:
In trading there is usually two parties. Seller and buyer.
I now introduce the trade mediator.
The seller or buyer deposit their item/money in the barrel as usual.
Now they do it seperately with only the mediator taking items/money from barrel(s).
Once the mediator sees that there is the right ammount of money and the item is of the right type/purity, then deposits
the money in the barrel for the seller to receive and item in a barrel for the buyer. All done seperately.
Trade will only be conducted in Boston.
The trade will be cancelled/postponed if there is alot of ninja activity near barrels.
Trade can be interrupted by force majeure such as natural disasters and computer crashes or if the nature of the game is changed so that trades as stipulated is made impossible.
Cost: For the time being its free since I have to work up a reputaion. In the future there will be a 5% fee off the sales price.
Im known as "Damocles" in game and I will come to Boston and offer my services on a regular basis.
If anyone is interested in using me as mediator send me a PM to schedule time.
