So far i know the auction house hasn't been working and i'm not very sure how exactly it works
So my question is;
Will the auction house be replacing FM? or will they work in tandem with each other?

    The auction house will probably be the place where the stuff people actually want to sell for that particular price can be found. While FM shops will be where you'll find the items players want you to bid on.

    Heh.

    AH will be used for people selling stuff within the meso cap, FM will be for people trying to sell stuff over the meso cap (since they clearly wont remove the FM or shops and it hasnt even happened in KMS)

    Well it won't matter bc Nexon did not fix the crashing bug with the auction house. I guess they will either take it down another 12+ hours to fix it or just won't bother fixing it for a long time. Figures finally they bring the auction house and it's broken.

    hopefully it replaces FM i haven't seen the FM in reboot active for a while unlike it used to be with the rooms all filled and people spamming for items to buy and sell.
    i haven't seen the auction house in this game but i assume it's like every other game, sell item for certain price paying a fee to sell it and then get taxed for said item after being sold. if this is the case i really don't see any difference compared to the fm atm since it's empty nobody is bidding on items and when people set up shop it's at a certain price already it just takes time to view all the items in every store from room to room

    That's because you can't trade items in reboot.

    Excuse me what. Did you uh... forget the whole "no inter-player transactions of any sort" part of Reboot?

    Wait i thought in the reboot server players couldnt sell, buy, or trade itmes?


    As for everyone else with the AH now being active i havent seen any bidding capabilities but i have noticed people selling items over the meso cap so i assume nexons original plan was to use the AH to replace the FM

    You also can't by individual items from a bundle. So if I'm selling 100 item crystals, they would have to buy 100 item crystals. This means that anyone selling in bulk will still use Free Market.

    Actually from what I've seen this isn't the case at all

    For example: Spell Traces.

    On the AH I've seen people selling around 7000-9000 spell traces in one sale slot and me myself only needed around 1000

    The AH allows you to pick how many of what item you are buying (granted it is stack-able)
