I mean, to deliver in game items sold here on gwguru.
I play on euro servers, and have to deliver items on us players.
But for me it's a real pain to catch them online.
At this moment I have to deliver 3 items to 3 different players, for a total of 95k.
What I'm looking for is a player who delivers my items for a percentage (10% sounds good?).
So, he gives me 85k, sells the items for me (prices and buyers are clearly verifiable in the sell section) and makes a profit of 10k.

Does a service like this exist?

You might want to try one of the mods offering their help on the 100K+ items. They may be willing to hold something for a few hours.

Anyine else offering such a service would have to be ultra reliable, and I'm not sure how many would trust a third party for something to take place of a few hours.

Aye, and I can oversee things too. I don't mind being the middleman while you get things sorted out, free of charge.

Dude, the question should be "Do you trust me?" I can help you out and I will tell you that between the time that you give me the item and your buyer signs on, I will be slicing through trolls, minotaurs and the like with your axe, bow, sword or whatever. I also will sharpen that sword or axe of yours before I hand it over the buyer.

I'm at GMT-8, usually on about 3-4 hrs a night and I charge the outragous fee of 0 gold pieces per transaction (Bulk transactions will be given a discount of 20%.

If the answer is yes than...

However as Hockster suggested, you really should try one of the mods first. At lease you know where they mod.

Being a mod, I wanted to provide some input to the suggested transaction support.

You are actually looking to have somebody pay you up front, take your items, and hope to find the buyers. The sad reality is that this adds a lot of risk for the intermediary.

- We might never find the buyers
- The bidders might no longer be interested

I understand the stated problems, but I think this exceeds the concept of an intermediary.

Modifying your idea in such a manner that the mod takes the merchandise without providing payment in order to facilitate delivery is not much easier. In that case, you would be asking for the coordination of three transactions and the subsequent delivery of the payment. Quite frankly, the potential for error seems to be going up in that situation.

I think you would be looking at a much easier solution if you could coordinate meeting times during the weekend. If you can deliver on a Saturday night, the buyers could pick up their merchandise before lunch on the same day.

Personally, I would be rather uncomfortable with the proposed transaction in the original form.
