Buildings scattered throughout Paragon City. http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showflat.php?Cat=0&Board=shibboleth&Number=6875913


From a build breifly on the Test Server, there was an NPC activated who gave the following information about how these buildins will likely function in Issue 9:



Greetings, <Hero Name>. Welcome to Wentworth's Fine Consignments.

If this is your first time in our consignment house, let me explain how it works. At Wentworth's we use a 'secret bid' auction. To make a long story short, you set the price for your item, but the Buyer does not see it. The Buyer bids what he wishes to pay and if he meets, or exceeds, your requested price he will receive the item. You may even receive more than you asked for! In order to help the Buyer with a bid, there is a history of how much that item has sold for in the past, up to 10 purchases.

You only have 10 Transaction Slots so whether you are selling or buying, you may only participate in 10 transactions at any given time. In the beginning, you have a limited number of Transaction Slots; however, you will gain more through experience or rewards. The amount of slots you have is based on your Security Level.

You may sell (or buy) Salvage (which is sold in stacks), all Enhancements, Recipes and Inspirations.

Now this consignment house is not free and we do have two types of fees. There is a Listing Fee, which is 10% of the price you sell your item for. It is refunded once the item is sold. There is also a Transaction Fee of 5% of the final sale price, which is deducted at the time of purchase. You will use your Influence to pay for these transactions.

You may only put an item up for sale for 24 hours. If it does not sell within that time frame it moves to your Transaction Inventory for 30 days. Please be aware that you will lose your posting fee if your item does not sell. Also, you may put up a 'looking to buy' order for 7 days. If no one responds in 7 days, the order is cancelled.

Oh, and there was that customer incentive program I wanted to mention. Badges. No matter, I'm sure I have given you too much information already and you will figure it out soon enough.
