Chest Shop Improvements

The chest shop is an interactive way for players to buy and sell items. However, some improvements could be made that would be very useful for sellers.

-Adjustable number of items: This would allow the user to select how many items they want to buy instead of having to buy the set amount. (Same for selling)

-Improved Chest Logs(when you do SHIFT+Right Click): It would be very convenient for a shop owner to be able to see the total number of times items have been sold / bought (both). Also This should say the total money received or spent on this shop.
Something like this:

(Chest Logs)
Stats: (Money Received: 1,023 meebles, Money Lost: 100 meebles, Times Bought: 3, Times Sold: 45)

+1 Some people do NOT need to buy sandstone in amounts of 100+

 

Shift and right click on sign for log like please looking for arch

 

I'm a bit confused by what you said.

 

I was referring to your suggestion for changing the amount being purchased.

 

Oh thx

Not very helpful & a waste of time.

I don't see any real need for this, but it does sound pretty cool!

The first part already exists, you can set how much you can buy each time, and there is no limit to it. The second part, however, seems useless. You really don't need information on how much you've spent at a chest shop.

 

I mean the buyer can pick how much they want to buy

 

I'm pretty sure that you can already select the amount of items that you want to buy from the chest shop.
The statistics seem cool, but not very important...

-1, thanks for the idea!

 

But how much you can buy is already there. There is really no need for how much a buyer needs to pick. If the buyer has too much of what they need, they can sell it back to the chestshop. Simple.

This is assuming both that the buyer buys from a chestshop that even HAS a sell price, and that the sell price is the same as the buy price.
You lose money this way.
+1 to picking the amount, sometimes I need 2 grass to finish filling up a plot and the vshop is ridiculously expensive.

 

-1 on Quantity
Chest shops are run by players. The seller gets to choose how many of an item gets sold and at what price. This does not need to change. If you need to buy just 1 and the seller is only selling in stacks of 64 go to different shop or ask a seller to sell you just 1. You can't just walk into a store that sells eggs (12 in pack) take 1 and pay for it. Doesn't work that way.

-1 on Stats
You can already do this on your own, it's called accounting. All you need is a spreadsheet and you can keep track of how many of an item you place in a chest, price, etc... It be neat to have however there are more important things that tech need to address.

 

OMG just shift and right click on the chestshop sign it show purchases, when they were done, amount bought, and money earned from that person.
