[Suggestions] Improvements for the game

ISSUE. Like many, my number one, perhaps only, nearly game breaking frustration is the Global Trading HQ. For me at least, the game is balanced to require the Global Trading HQ to complete projects in a reasonable time. Without the option for a second of each of the businesses and randomness of special items, the game drags out to dullness. The Global Trading HQ adds a wonderful, unique spice to the game. But between it's glitchiness and 19/20 saying item isn't available, it's a teeth-grinding frustration.

SUGGESTED SOLUTION: At least in concept I really love this idea, make items available for a limitless number of people to purchase over a short window of time. If your item reaches a certain number of sales, you get a percentage bonus. It would resolve the frustration of next-to-never getting the item you see on the shelf right in front of you. It would also add a new strategy of finding a competitive price that will net you the most sales without going too low. Currently there's no incentive to go less than the max price because everyone is so desperate in the midst of the insane mad grab of the Trading HQ.

Personally I like the randomness of what comes up in the HQ, but only if I'm nearly guaranteed to get it. Otherwise, as others are screaming for, there needs to be a way to search for a specific item. If there isn't a way to fix the Trade HQ so that you are almost guaranteed to obtain the item you're clicking on, a specific search may be an solution, if it offers at least a 50/50 chance of obtaining the item. Greater would be better. It may even be that if you do a search of all items on sale, you do so for a percentage increased fee. An amount balanced to be reasonable but would deter casual searches.

FINAL THOUGHT. Honestly, the Trading HQ, perhaps one of the best features of this game, is currently it's greatest detriment. I've come bitterly close to delete the game multiple times even though I've reached 320,000 and have several goals set I'd like to achieve before I'd get bored. If the Trading HQ isn't fixed, it's only a matter of time before I'm going to hit a point I give up. There's just too much time I'm playing the game that I feel like I've wasted my time. A game can be a time killer but should never feel like a time waster.
