Hey I want to bring here my concerns about trade, I heard by blizzard that the new «money» will be gold like in wow, no more items like in diablo 2, what can we expect from trade, it was something I really enjoyed in d2 and I just fear it might disapear or be shutdown :'(
They do plan to make gold a useful currency but i'd expect item to item trades aswell.
I don't see why not.
In one of the panels at the 2010 Blizzcon they said trading would be exactly like in D2 as far as UI goes, so you're in a game and you ask trade they accept you put your crap on one side and see what he puts up accept or decline, same old stuff. Other than that they have said nothing else about trade. I'm praying for an AH so i don't have to sift through all those games saying SoJ for Jalals or something to that nature.

Was mostly thinking that there should be better ways to trade than spam the trade channel and/or create games with the stuff you want to sell/buy. Some kind of an Auction House that would use gold as a currency.
Item for item trade, has been gone since ~2003. It was alot more fun trading in the chat rooms and trade games than that jsp site that is used now. The concept of jsp really gets under my skin, I magic find and trade all day for 100 forum gold, while someone else buys 100 forum gold with their moms credit card for five dollars..... right.....what ever trading ideas they go with I will be happy as long as it isnt a 3rd party site.
They stated that they want us to be able to say hey i like that item and i want it, then ask for a trade but they don't want trade games created so i can't see them doing this without an A) official blizzard trading site, or an AH in the B.Net II UI.
