Rise of the Merchant Guild
I've been playing online RPGs for a long time and I always like to play the role of the merchant. The haggling and the interaction level that you get cannot be compared with either the PvP or the PvE part of the game.
I've established auction houses in Ultima Online and Star Wars Galaxies with great success and I've decided to establish one here in GuildWars. We've already hosted our first live auction two weeks ago (top item was a Kirin that went for 10k) and people that attended (20 people, excluding my guildmates) wanted to know when will I host the next one. I've seen threads about the need for an automated auction system like WOW has, but for those of you who've played UO, you know the thrill of outbidding someone or see your items gain a lot of attention on the auction floor.
I personally invite you to attend Merchant Guild's next auction this Sunday, 5:00pm EST. The top items will be a Varesh (get it before the update!), Nightfall greens and Faction greens. It's not a lot, but the starting bid is just 1k - 5k.
A small fee of 200g is needed to gain entrance to our Hall. Look for [GOLD] members in Lion's Arch, Droknar's Forge, Ascalon, Kanieng Center and Kamadan (American District 1) 2 - 3 hours before the auction starts.
