I know that some of us have saw something in the store, liked it, and then hated it when you put it on your character/ship. That or just got bored after a while with it. This is why I think there should be a place or system that allows you to sell your unwanted cosmetics as well as trading them to others. If you decide to sell you will get the full refundable price as when you bought the item. If you decide to trade then you can find other pirates (or have a whole new menu option) and see if you can trade your unwanted items, and get something else that you really want. Then repeat the process when you don't want it. You will still have to progress through the game to get the higher tier cosmetics, as well as you also have to be legendary to trade legendary things with fellow legendary pirates. This idea isn't fully though out yet but I would like to hear what you think.
Selling/Trading Unwanted Cosmetics
@nygiantsgirl90 I like the idea of being able to sell them back. Maybe not for the full price - but half or something.
@reedski well this is also a solution to if you want a fast way of doing it but also lets you have a broad spectrum of cosmetics easier
@nygiantsgirl90 I have suggested this a few times although only as posts and not an actual thread.
What I proposed was the ability to sell to other players by advertising on notice boards at outposts.
These could be split into "Buy" and "Sell" (wanted / selling) categories when standing in front of the notice board. Like the options you see when in front of an NPC vendor.Select the category:
If you are selling, the list will itemize what cosmetic upgrades you have available to sell. These could be placed into categories like each shop on the outposts.
Select the respective item then add an opening price.If you are browsing to buy something cheap, select the category it would be listed under. Then scroll through the list of available items for sale, select the one you are interested in and either agree to the opening price or place a bid on it.
This would notify the seller who can then confirm the sale or hit you with a counter offer. That action would send you a notification where you could accept the price or continue to haggle.The transaction would be no different than purchasing anything from an NPC vendor. Money and item exchange would happen automatically upon acceptance of the final asking price or bid.
Due to such low numbers of players per server this would need to be a global market. Perhaps one server could be set aside just for internal transactions.
I haven't decided if the classifieds should remain after the player has left the game or not. Or if the bids should remain in play until they are next online. Although it would be good. there is also the possibility of either party not playing again for a few days (or longer) which would leave the other person wanting for too long.
