Reduce the sale tax

The tax works by ADDING additional percentage on top of the existing percentage set by town.

+0% = 1 to 999,999,999
+1% = 1,000,000,000 to 9,999,999,999
+2% = 10,000,000,000 to 99,999,999,999
+4% = 100,000,000,000 ++

eg: if you at Rome (2% default), selling item beyond 100b will cost you 6%!

This is WAY TOO MUCH.

Please either reduce it or let us change the item prices without re-listing.

I think it is OK, but reverse, i explain it:

+0% = 100,000,000,000 ++
+1% = 10,000,000,000 to 99,999,999,999
+2% = 1,000,000,000 to 9,999,999,999
+4% = 1 to 999,999,999


About change item price without re listing may have a glitch ... you can "sell" x item for 1 gold, then change price to 100b without relisting without paying fee.

Allowing us to reduce the price of market items would be nice, but it would not be the most fair solution. I feel the most fair solution would be this: If I post an item, I pay tax immediately, but it goes into limbo in the Nexon servers. When the item sells, THEN the town gets the money (I'm not sure if this is the current system or not). If I remove the item, the tax I paid is refunded to me. It would allow me to re-post an item without being penalized for reducing the cost of an item. For example, I'm the first to buy a fancy new mount in IM, but there are none in market. I want to make a killing, so I post it at 200 bil. With other players posting, the lowest-priced one is at 20 bil 3 days later. If I remove my item and re-post it, I've paid tax on a 220 bil gold mount that I might be able to sell for 20 bil. If I don't, it won't sell. Refunding my tax money if I take an item off market would solve this issue. It would also be more fair when I post items, and then find out an hour later I need them for a quest, so I take them off market. I would not be penalized then. It would also prevent guilds from obtaining tax money for posted items, then give up or lose the town.

How much of the additional overtax goes to the building seems ambiguous. It doesn't look like all of it, and it doesn't look like none of it.

As for tax refund on relisting, I think it should stay as is. The way it is now is supposed to slow down the undercutting.

Some people dont get its already percentage. Increasing % cost as the price goes up is completely retarded. I dont even know how stupid people working in kAO (or is it nexon?) are.

lets say i put 1 x 100b stack of items on the market. I pay 6b.

YET, if i put 11 stacks of the same item for 9b each, i pay only 2b.

See how completely dumb this is?
