Dear CCP,

for years now players have demanded that you implement the possibility to sell multiple items with only one action in your hangar (e.g. select multiple items / all, right click, sell all).

I only searched the new forums for a few minutes and came up with this, that, this, this, that, this picture, this, that and this thread concerning the issue. Players want and need the option to sell multiple items and there are already some ideas as how to do it (also look at the picture above). Not only would players save lots and lots of precious time by having the possibility to sell multiple items at once (YOU TOO have been mission grinding and had to sell dozens and hundreds of items single handedly - comparable to the FW LP store clickfests after T5 pushes), it would also not drive away newer players who - as I know from talking to some newbs - are regularly shocked by having to sell all their stuff one piece at a time!

Since I never got an official response to this matter, all other threads got locked (!) and there's no mentioning of this in the common ideas thread either, I'd like to propose the SELL ALL / SELL MULTIPLE ITEMS option here.

What do you guys think?

I wouldn't have a problem if such option would be available.

I'd rather have to sell each item individually than have the servers crash every time someone with a load of crap wants to clear stock.

Just thinking if it would actually be possible or not.

I suppose if you are selling to people's buy orders by default and the items for which there are no buy orders in range automatically generate a sell order at regional average.

But currently with how limitless price setting is with regards to buy/sell orders, sometimes it's more profitable to reprocess and sell the minerals. Something that can really only be determined on a 'per item' basis.

Make several options available for the market. One could be: Select all - right click - sell all @ xx% of market value.

I assume that this topic arised lots of times before. It was even taken to CSM in 2009.

http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Sell_multiple_items_at_once_(CSM)

I wonder why issues that do not affet the ingame balance should pass to CSM instead of being taken as "Thousand little things" And though I admitt that CSM are represenatives of player comunity I think that this problem is too far from their ingame needs to make any sense for them. This stuff is what high sec mission runners (and some traders) need.

The only con that is indicated in wiki is "high load". However I dont see any reason for that to arise, because actually servers will have to produce much less amount of the information per request (only best order for each position instead of all the orders avaliable in region)

Thus I ask current CSM to make another vote on this topic. Or formulate a criteria when such a vote can be held again. Or just ask some EVE GUI Devs to review this topic as part of the new interface overhaul.
