The Voodoo market is a place where players can buy voodoo, but the only option is bidding. So I think that maybe we can add a bit more. The ship market is similar, but instead you buy ships for credits.

1. Buy Now!
A voodoo card/ship seller can make the option for a voodoo card/ship to be sold immediately with NO wait, the Buy Now option CANNOT be equal to or less than the starting price for bids.

Ex:
Voodoo - Mindbar
Amount - 1
Starting Price - 25 Credits
Buy Now - 30 Credits

Ship - Man of War
Level - 10
Starting Price - 600 Credits
Buy Now - 700 Credits

Fixed. I found IOUs messy as well.

Buy now system? Sounds nice.

I dislike this idea. It is good that it is a delay between the time you bid for something and the time you get it, so you have to plan ahead, and cannot instantly buy whatever it is you need right now.

i agree that the idea sounds nice and i would honestly like to have the feature, but i really think that it would destroy the entire ship market system in place now. Here's why:

If the Buy Now price has to be higher than the Bid Start price, what keeps me from making the starting price 599 credits and the Buy Now price 600 credits? that is higher than the starting price, but just makes the auction an instant one. I think this would just happen with all the ships and the market ceases to be a place to bid, becoming just an instant ship buying market.

Does Buy Now ruin eBay and Amazon? I am sure people are competent enough to make it higher.
