Hello Atlantic Peeeeeeeps!
In the last couple years, these new vet reward thingies came around. 3 auction safes per reward pick.
I've only really been noticing a MASS of these things on Atlantic the last few weeks. I mean... a MASS-MASS. Many not used at all. Most seam to have extremely disgustingly overpriced "rares" given by EM events... that, as far as I see... are tacky and totally wrong for UO. I mean... come on. Rewards should be small and befitting the UO décor. Not just recolored items never designed to be in private ownership. BUT my opinion is not the point of the question. I see these things set up with 100 MILLION gold PLUS prices. I know some people are in to collecting them... and goodness knows the gold flow must be massive today. BUT... are these auction safe items practical?
Say... if you had a house specializing in "reasonable" auctions… like in the old days of auction houses.
Remember them?
It took a LOT of time... like a real auction. People, specializing in this service, would take in player goods and with all notes... and, from my experience, you got an honest deal for a piece of the action. I sold a few bolts of rare cloth... or stuff that was hard to move in mass, but not unit or hard to replace. Just never know! BUT... honest people. This was more like 10 years ago.
So! Magical question:
Do you like the auction boxes? Would you use them in reasonable auctions? Or unreasonable auctions. Who am I to judge? hehe
