    It could be a second inventory area. It could be a "lock" on the item. I would like a way to "hold" items I want to keep separately from items I am willing to gift/trade. Since we can't see how many of an item we have when we are considering a trade, it would be nice to know for sure that the item we are giving up for a trade is indeed one we can spare. :)

    I agree, it would save a lot of going back and forth checking inventory.

    Great idea - I can't count the amount of times I've given away my crow roosts!

    Love this idea! Spent lots of time going back and forth this past G&T to check things.

    BC - That's a terrific idea!!!!:D I did accidentally trade a pink rodeo stable a few G & T's ago....still kicking myself!:mad::oops: I was tired....and got the left & right sides of trading window mixed up!:wuerg:
    So now...if I only have 1 left of something(that I surely do NOT want to let go of).....I put it in a field. That way it's safe!:p
    Maybe, like BP has the item/quantity as listed in the FSQ's they could make this possible/visible so we don't have to keep going & checking!!! It would make trading sooooo much easier!!!;)

    I did put stuff out in fields to keep from trading it by accident. I ran out of fields! :p

    It would make it easier if you could label the columns "What I have trade" and "What I need/want"...
    or simple words to that effect.

    My list to Santa (I know it is late and might not be granted until next Christmas :p) contains one wish only ;)

    Could we maybe have a place in the inventory to put unwanted/not needed items for the gift and trade event?? :inlove:

    After planting/placing all my mystery stables and trees (and it took me 2 days to mature/hatch them) I have now some 20+trees, 10+stables and workshops and it confuses me of what I actually have out on the fields.

    Most of us would say that even at 10-20 of each type, you are only just getting started. We need them eventually.

    That would be great, Pickles. A separate area for unwanted items would prevent us from accidentally trading something we wanted to keep.

    I believe it was the wonderful farmer_broke who started it.

    Good Idea.
    There is also the problem of when GT runs at the same time as an event where you have cleared your fields. You could make the mistake of trading a pen/workshop because it is in inventory but it is only there because you cleared the field for the event and not an extra.
