    Differentiate the offerings of multiple items in some way.

    This could be very simple... just put a star or asterisk or vary the color of the listing if there are multiple items. You could combine all the more than one offerings, so that people would have to click to see each (similar to now, but just for the multiples). That is, if there are offerings for one item and for multiple items, you would see 2 entries in the main list, one for the single and one for the multiples. Click on the multiples listing and you might see an offering of 2, another for 3, etc.

    I know this was previously suggested, but I cannot find the thread... I think it might have been one of those combined with the comment that it was "the same" as the suggestion to sort offerings, then closed when the sorting mechanism was introduced. Well.. now we have sorted offerings, but still no way to see if the offerings are for multiple items from single items. Also, while being able to sort this added feature would be nice, it would be helpful even if we could just sort the names, as long as the differentiation appeared on the list. (color, asterisk, or whatever you can do)

    Agree
    It's frustrating going through list and then when you find a trade you want and click on it you realize that they want a 4 to 1 trade or something similar. It should show the number required on the posted item.

    What I would like to see in Trade is: Sample - I'm looking for a Red Stable upgrade, but I don't have any "Spare Red " items to trade..........
    So I will make up a List of different spare items (1xtree,2xother stalls) too make the trade "Fair", for that Red item I want........
    Basically - offering multiple items for 1 item.

    This is a nice idea, but it is a separate suggestion. The biggest issue I have with ideas like this is that we only have access to our one market. That seriously limits both the postings we see and the people who see our postings.

    In the mean time, you can do this unofficially by posting wishes in the appropriate Chit Chat thread (they start a new wish/offerings list every G & T)
