Hello all,

I play the market a bit, mostly selling rat droppings, but there's one feature I think should be in this game. When selling an item, there should be a box on the advanced screen that says "Add to existing Sell Order". If you have a sell order in that given station, and more items of the same type, you should be able to add the items to the previously existing sell order without having to open up another sell order entirely.

This would make sale orders much easier to handle, and it could have the same cost as modifying an order in any other way (100 ISK) in addition to the taxes and such. I humbly seek your support on this topic.

+1 I'm fine with it. It is just "restocking the shelves" at an existing price point. Why not?

I'd say thumbs down on this. Exporting market orders to CSV files provides useful info for sales analytics including original quantities for a sell order. Depending on the frequency of exporting orders, one can track the velocity or rate at which sales of a given item are moving. Resetting amounts might make exports meaningless.

What's wrong with more than one sales order? If you find orders annoying enough to require such a fix, why not increase your skills enough to make multiple orders a non-issue?
