I was stood at an empty stall for a long time and decided not to take it due to the tax rate. i am happy for tax for the king but as i do not have high production of anything, i feel i will not have enough left to be worth the initial investment.

This. Dry Boards are worth 10s and people want them for 10s if i put them in stalls for 10s there gone for 6s to me + 4 silver for Darwoth and the KuKluxKlowns wich means a heavy loss for me, if it was 10% and i would get 9s it be another thing, but 35% is rediculous.

increasing price scares customers and barrels have no merchant option aka wont let you sell offline etc... maybe have smaller stalls that have 2--3 spots and 10% taxes for lower players?

Don't ***** if you don't want to influence the market. YOU are setting the price not his majesty.

People complain about high stall taxes, yet I do not see any vacant stalls. Maybe those, who have trouble paying the taxes should abandon their stall and let someone more productive take it?
You are a bunch of lucky people who managed to get their stall in the short time after they become available and now you try to capitilize on your luck even more by complaining about how low profit you make. Yet, at the same time there are other people making fat dough with their stalls, and some others who would gladly invest over 10000s to get a stall for themselves. Sounds to me like you simply failed at trading...

Most people who complain don't even own a stall, or are unable to gather 10.000s EVER.

IF they do have a stall, then they will continue to undercut every time, until the price of the item goes to 10% of the original price, then you will see them complain how ****** the economy is and how bad taxes are.

Sadly all of this is true.

Heff are you really trying to get stuff changed again to make your own life easier?
the 35% tax is perfect in my opinion, if it would be lower the town system would suffer
