HMMMMM? NAHHH!
Personally i hate it. I would rather pay a one time fee then have them scam a 2% price deduction to each sale i make. I honestly sell alot on the market and i think that i would most definitly lose over 1k on my sales. Well what do you think?!

I like it because it'll end up promoting more activity in the Exchange forum.
People won't want to shell out the 2%, so they're more likely to sell things in the forum.

Plus, new looking things tend to appeal to me.
So I'd like it with or without the tax. xD

Very true, i like the idea of new looks but personally i think i would still want to take the 2% out because say you sell something for 10k thats 2k thats being taken out, so why not just pay 1k once and get that 10k you deserve. I think the marketplace will never be the same and i think it will loose intrest. Bad move Gaia. I mean honestly if they deside to go and make the move to 2% deductions then i'm gonna leave Gaia.

Actually, 2% of 10k is only 200g.
So it's really not that bad, I don't think. 8(

No come on do the math.
10,000gold times .2 is 2,000.
Thats a 2k decrease.
See now thats bad.

Ahh your right. But still, it would be worse then paying it only once. What if you sell alot?
