Advice Please

I have decided that I need to clean up my SDB (there is over 1000 items
again). I have been trying the Trading Post with not much luck (I might not
be patient enough LOL).

I have some expensive (for me) books (I have others, but these are the over
1000 NP ones). There are 6 of them, with two upwards of 20000. Should I
group them all together, put them up separately, or make two groups up? Or
should I give up on the TP and just stick them in my shop.

I want to continue to save money, but I would really like a Harris, Mazzew,
and Gruslen. And a Lab Map.

And I would like to say again that the SDB should be searchable by Type.
Why else have Types? To search by!

Thank You,

daramark

Using the Trading Post for items that sell for less than 100k just
plain seems silly to me. More work for you, and the buyer has to
wait. Why would one want to wait for something that one could just
use the Shop Wizard to find?

Just a thought.

That's why I used auctions for those items.

Personally I'd put them in my shop - the trading post and auctions are
better for bargains or unbuyables.

Thanks for the (same) opinion. And if the trade I am trying for doesn't
work, into my shop they will go.
