    Listing items for auction isn't against the Terms of Service.

    Not sure why this is an issue since:
    1) you can sort by price per unit
    2) there's a confirmation dialog before purchase

    Players will just need to remain vigilant.

    QUALITY : you need to reach x999 items to see what the lowest price. but if your cant reach x999 you dont see the lowest price in bulk/bundle

    Price/stack Price/unit : only same when i click they have only 1 item appear .
    the buyers and famers will tired to scroll down because have many 1by1 item

    Example . The item worth 20k

    Deceive player : put 1 pcs item worth 10k by x50 so if the other players not aware put bundle/a Lot same price and the deceiver will buy the items and resell .

    Farmers: have negative effects to this kind of style because the price of items will go down so fast and we know its not a joke of farming energy and running in event you need a lot of hours to play.

    You are more than welcome to actually try to sell the cheapest 'real' item under those circumstances, no matter how you decide to sort the items, you are still getting deceived unless you scroll those 50 fake pages, while those scammers get an amazing priority whenever a player is deceived. Believe me, those 50 guys you see here complaining about the same issue, have attempted to do it by themselves and are really experienced with auction. The ones that are not complaining, are exploiting it.

    Since you only have to try it once, I do suggest you to do it to see how frustrating it is to do it every time you want to sell something.
