Map Suggestion Auctioning

[privateme]

Suggestion Title: Auctioning
Suggestion Description: If you want to sell things, you only have a few options: selling it to a shop NPC, selling your crafted items at the Bazaar or selling your car to the dealership for half of it's buy price. However, what if you could sell items at an auction?
My idea could work in a traditional auction house, with an auctioneer being another job that can be done. Or, it could be an online auction on a phone app (think Ebay auctions, for example)
Anything could be sold, except for illegal things such as drugs. (guns could still be sold as they can be possessed legally)
Properties could be sold instead of selling them back to the bank, however, they should have something of value inside in order to be sold. Yet again, that valuable thing can't be drugs.
Vehicles could be sold with a starting bid of a few grand below the normal sell price. It would go for more if it had upgrades or modifications.
Premium bids could also be an exclusive for premium members, where you can buy premium cars and other exclusive items.

Why should this be added?:
- More options to sell things
- Players could earn more money from selling their items
- Another job opportunity

What negatives could this have?:
- More moderation time would have to be dedicated to making sure nobody is abusing it (such as the auctioneer running a fair house)

What problem would this suggestion solve?: N/A, just a cool feature

Y’all, people complained fairly that direct selling to cars would make car dealer redundant. But if this was the way it would work the fees can be added onto the deal (auctioneer fee, processing fee, bank fee, etc..) to raise the price such that it’s adjusted to be at minimum more than the car dealer but LESS than what it would cost if you were the person upgrading the car and customizing at the start of the auction!

The obvious downside to the buyer is the customization might be worth tons of money but at least they win a car from an auction and can customize it later.

This honestly sounds like such a fun way to have a new sort of conflict rp through non-PVP business .

This is a good idea, yes it's unconventional for perp but u can attract so much disputes in engagement via making real estate a thing however the biggest issue is a org just buying everything and selling it off for 100× cheaper therefore ruining everyone's life for 10 peoples profit so I'm in the mix

Impossible already. Orgs have a set limit of how much property they can own.

Yeah, there could be some fees attached.

Really good idea but i think its going to be really hard to implement and what another nice addition would be that you could basically put your car in the auction then sell a car that worth 2mil (Standard Price) then you would want to sell your car at the car dealer but only get 1mil back BUT now what would be nice if you could put it on the Auction house for 1.5mil that would be nice which other players can buy

It’s not hard to implement simple code

Your going to need a whole new app on the phone plus new buttons and programming ? its alot of effort

You’re thinking of it too much. Just put item down add a new button with auction and time and min price and people bid

Owner of the suggestion also said he would like to see car bids, thats another issue as there is currently no car selling to other people system, they will need to intoduce a system to move cars from 1 player to another without any glitches midway, its not that simple if u think about it

I'm no lua expert, but I wonder of it'd be able to give the player a new car? So, the car gets sold at auction, and the seller has the car removed from their inventory, and the buyer gets it put in their inventory. Whole new model, just upgrades and colour changes if needed.

Also I know perpheads is a good server I've yet to see a exploit happen whether that be casino, items whatever but there is still a miniscule chance of Exploiting stuff and I feel like adding such a new thing that requires such complexity will require LOTS of software dedicated to preventing the Exploiting of this new system
