If you really want to improve the gameplay give us a search engine for Global trade HQ.

Oh, another thing, just to throw another advice, as I said, the best way is being a part of a helping club.for anyone that serves upgrading storage, expand: the game is usually intensive in 1 or 2 types of items, you keep seing cameras on market, you touch a cloud and you get another camera, you visit Daniel and he's selling cameras, you open your daily chest and get cameras, I realize and end up having this behavior so many times:26 cameras, 12 locks. 2 grates.and the game keeps giving you the other 2 items, until your storage suffocates, and it also annoys you, since you don't want to sell the cameras, you end up paying the difference with green cash, buying the last item missed. What you need is to get a partner in your club, that his game is proposed to give him grates in an absurd way and not give it almost cameras. so that between the two of them, they can find the balance and improve storage quickly, the more teammates in the club want to participate in improving the storages by parts, the better and you will not need the market for that.

Think about why they would never do this.. aside from the obvious cash cow they would be killing off, they want to make the game more challenging, not less.

@themetrimangel Welcome to the forum! While a search engine appears to be a positive, I suspect it would be quickly exploited. You see this very clearly when a desirable item is advertised and immediately taken while finding an equally desirable item within that same depot...it’s clear what’s happening.The market is simply a snapshot of economic approaches of the different players in the game - sadly, it is simply overwhelmed by folks that put up high price items (hamburgers, pizza, ice cream) that are plentiful and let them sit for up to 3 days and let Daniel purchase them at full price (which is a most ludicrous approach from the game developers...it should be at half price which I have advocated in the past). Not enough folks understand that repeatedly turning your depot over with items needed by the customer at a price that represents value will generate at least twice the revenue or more in the same time frame. But that’s not the solution...just the cause.@BlazinsZ within his presentation offered a great deal of insightful information...most very good, some not so much. As he shared the best way to approach the global market is to join a helpful and supportive club...I would look for a club with members at different levels within the game as you will have access to more levels of the market. But remember the key is a supportive club which requires you to be supportive as well. Good luck in your efforts.

@Duckups Not sure, but my Bride always likes to start decorating the day after Thanksgiving so I thought I’d hang on to them in case the Christmas store does not open in time. 😎

@themetrimangel @Actionj925 I just wanted to say, creating a filter will not help you at all, it can be even worse. I used to complain about how useless the market was until I understood how it worked, The game is designed so that you need items, for everything, having items means you advance, having items fast means that you advance very fast in game... You need to do a cargo? marketNeed seeds? marketNeed repair building? marketNeed upgrade a building? marketNeed do regional? marketNeed unlock an area? marketIf everything were easily achieved in the market, the points in COM would grow impressively and like everyone else we would advance in the game very fast, as well as make deliveries in war really fast and attack a lot, the speed will make you reach the end fast and finish the game very fast, which is obviously not the best result for EA (not even for us, who want to waste time in this silly game)therefore EA creates lots of items to stop this growth (with regions, and forced sport items just to make everything more difficult). at the same time, some items have bad prices, to force you not to sell them, therefore, the reason why you cannot find flour is because most prefer to use the flour for pizza (which gives more money) instead of selling the flour in the market, creating a shortage of that item, and generating endless burgers, pizzas, and other items that are sold at high prices. EA can easily fix this by allowing us to price the flour more appropriately, but it doesn't, if it does, the flour will be readily available (a lot of players would like to sell it), making sure that when we need it, we find it, and hence the explanation I already gave about fast forward in the game.You can easily check this with the '' soup'', this is an item for Frosty region, and need 2 vegetables, fish and spatulas (I don't remember if it are 2 spatulas or 2 veggies)The truth is, if you add the price of 2 veggies, plus fish, plus spatulas, that is, if you sell them separately, you get more than 1000 coins, but this soup, has a maximum price of 800, yeah, you actually losing coins if you just going to only sell soups, lol. The reason why this is so, is so that nobody wants to sell soup and therefore, it is an item that you cannot find in the market, if you do, it is because an inexperienced player sold it because he had no more space. In such a way, when you need soups, you are forced to make it yourself, slowing down your game, anyways, you can have a club and get it from your partners that they want to give it to you even knowing this.the best way to move fast and not need the market so much is to be part of a club where everyone has learned to be friendly and help each other.so the problem is not that there is or is not a '' filter or search engine '' because, even with that, there is very little soup and flour being offered, In this way, if the user can place `` I'm looking for such items '', he will get it quickly, increasing demand and therefore, many products disappearing and making the market even more unnecessary. there will be players who will only place `` camera, lock, grates '' and will be there, farming these items preventing everyone else from getting it, Everything will depend on your device, and your internet speed, so that when you put `` I'm looking for a camera '' and finally after several attempts one appears, you can load the city really fast, be quick with your finger, touch the warehouse, and buy it (using a fast internet) before another user, otherwise, you will only see the message '' sold '' as usual.I imagine that even a ''watch'' will go into shortage with a filter, which is an item that I can find from time to time thanks to the randomness of the market, but if everyone can locate it quickly, it will only be a knife war.

@PinnacleValley I cant see how it be exploited. Can still build your own and under price others

Daniel would be the rake and give like 1 coin per item left. Or that is what you suggest now? Be awesome. Other than when sports and Christmas crap ends

@Duckups I proposed reducing Daniel’s payout to 50% of the selling price a few years back...can’t really make it 1 simoleon as that would devastate folks trying to learn. On most items I place in the market I sell at a discounted price with a couple of exceptions that market demand allows full price...I run it like a business and keep my depot turning allowing my manufacturing facilities to keep producing at a high rate. I seldom put up hard to find desirable items, they are reserved for our club members as well as anything else that I have that they need at gift price. It’s funny you mention Christmas items, I kept one of each and still get offers to purchase them at a price that represents a profit.
