#### Thank you Devs for the Auction Changes!!

I was looking through auctions and noticed the changes to Shrine Powder listings. The bar across the bottom indicating how many uses were left in the item is awesome! But wait, there's more: the auctions now stating "New" for full jars of powder and "Used" for less than 5 uses is even more awesome! Thank you Devs!

- Thank you for working on all this, but I am finding all this extremely confusing!
  1. When you put an item up for auction it tells you at the top how much the lowest price is,the lowest 'per use',but not the total price (the only way I know how much an item really costs is by going to that item's auction page);
  then it asks how much we want for our item,and we type in how much we want 'per item', but it doesn't say how much 'per use' that is ~unless we forever do maths,and then the question is: How many uses are there with this item? Ok,most of us know there are 5 uses to a full jar of powder,but just how many uses are there in a Fancy Pick, for example?
  2. When buying it is just as confusing, lets say I want a Fancy Pick: the 'Tools Auction page' , lists the 'per use' price (in my example that is 5 currants) , but to know how much you will actually spend on this Fancy Pick (in total) you have to go to the 'Auction for FPs Page', and there it tells me it is a new FP and it will cost 999 c, and you have no way of knowing if the item on one page really is the same item on the previous page ~in the time it takes to go from one page to the next the item could have been sold and/or a new item added.
  Time is critical in auctions,esp when buying, and ESPECIALLY with snipers in situ, by the time you have figured out the (true) cost, you quite likely have missed out on a good deal.

- I like the changes to the auction as well, but I agree with ScillyGirl5 - I have the same frustrations.

- From my understanding its been hinted at that eventually there will be a complete overhaul of the auction system, it's just not one of the priorities right now. The auction right now can be a pain but once you get used to it, it's not so bad.
  I personally ignore the first page when buying and just go off the list of items. Right now with the new fix, it should always be sorted by price with the top as the cheapest. You can see the bar underneath the item icon to give you an idea of how many charges/uses it has. People also have set up sites that have much better pricing info than is available on the Glitch page.
  Selling is much more complicated of course and there have been many many comments posted about it.
