and I loved in Rift how it would remember items you placed in previously, that was a HUGE feature that smoothed out the process and reduced time spent at the terminal.
Got 5 of something to sell? Add one, set price and time, create the auction. Then for each additional you add it and create auction without having to redo bid/buyout/time for every one.
And yeah, no simple box to type in what you want to check prices on and hit Search is a mind-boggling lack of foresight. I mean, you can search by text after you enter at least 2 categories which you may not even know, but cant just start with a search?! fail, lol
