    Trade - showing ratio of exchange goods.

    Have you seen supermarkets that have the price/kilo in the label, even if the product is 245grammars?

    People try all sort of things, to get a good trade.

    An column with the ratio, would be very practical to keep silly offers from happening.

    For example 500 stone for 50gc (10/1) - that would be easy ok.
    1330 for 20 ( 66.5/1 ).

    etc.

    This would be very usefull against GC, but even in other goods, and it would help players spot the good deal very fast, and keep trades being more fair. Even the noobest player would spot the scam right away. He would be able to SORT BY that column for example.

    It would make trading a better place to live!

    I agree with Deorum. It got even worse after this new trade UI update, when you can put in any amount instead of maximum of 400. With the old system it was easier to keep track of prices with an Excel sheet, but now it has to be calculated every time.

    Also, the sorting doesn't work properly imo because it shows e.g. all stones offers regardless of how many stones there are for sale. I think it should be in some kind of ascending or descending order instead of list looking like this: 1000 stones, 200 stones, 10000 stones, 30 stones, etc.

    Yes, I know it sorts them by the first number but now it's more important to sort them by sum when it's possible to put 5-figure sums for sale.

    Also the sorting is difficult with multiple pages. You can only sort the first page...

    The other day i was trying to exchange gold ore for GC.

    It was a mess.

    35 ore vs 6gc, 500 ore vs 100gc, 5000ore vs 1300gc.

    I was doing the ratio with my calculator.

    I would be VERY practical to have the price per stack for example ready (per 1000 as measurement unit) ore simply the ratio.
    3.23/1 vs 3.20/1 would make a difference, and keep orders to a safe margin of fair trade.
