Could you imagine?

I had seen this over on Daeva’s Report, but hadn’t found time to read about it and post until now. It seems that our Korean counterparts are testing a new feature on their test website: a web-based trade broker! o.O

According to the article, players can browse, compare and buy items from the trade broker on the website and later receive them in-game. How cool is that!? So essentially, if you decide that you want to buy something from web broker, you’re then prompted for your PIN to confirm the purchase.

The article does go on to say that while you’re on the web broker, you can’t buy from the one in game (I would assume the reverse would be true?). Understandably, there would be a slight time delay between in-game and web brokers so there’s the chance you’d try to buy something that has already been sold. And lastly, if you don’t have enough kinah on your selected character, you cannot make the purchase.

Of course, there is no guarantee that we here in the west will get one any time soon, but it’s an interesting concept. Of course, I’m always broke from surfing the broker in-game, so having web access will only keep me broke all the time! LOL!

What do y’all think? :)
